It's been my experience that "Dorky" is usually paid for while "Cool, Nice, etc" is usually not. Might be time to have a serious conversation about finances and see if you guys agree on how to deal with them...

My wife never liked my Geos, but would ride in them if it meant her not paying for the gas. She really liked my TDI when I got it, but ever since she got a BMW, she's not as fond of it. :hmm

Got 70 MPG?

I can get my wife in the car, but that's about it. She doesn't like riding them. I think I've drove her around in a Geo Metro maybe a handful of times. Ever since we had our daughter she has not rode in it, nor do I want them in the car. I'd rather have them in our 4000 pound Charger.

Usually women want to steal mine. I don't understand, it's more money for her to buy crap with if we take it.

What's her ride? A Cobra or something?

My wife's ride is a 2006 Dodge Charger R/T. 5.7L 345ci HEMI. Lightly modified ;)

You are right, however she has free maintenance for the next 3 years or 50K. By then, she'll be tired of it anyway.
On a side note, the other day she was preparing to go on a trip, so I went to check under the hood. I was looking for dipsticks and other obvious things to check. I couldn't check any fluids! :smackface I went to the owner's manual and found that all fluids and pressures are checked through the computer screen on the dash. Under "Vehicle Status" , I found green checkmarks for oil, brake fluid, tire pressures etc.
I told the wife that according to her on-board computer, all systems were go and she was ready for launch! (I was just happy to see her finally leave!)
I personally like a little more hands-on mechanical input. Instead of it "checking off" the oil, how much is actually there? You know...

Is she skilled in other areas? If not, find a new girlfriend that enjoys your Geo.
