My wife currently drives a Volvo XC60 which is a pretty damn nice SUV, the interior is WAY better than her last BMW too. She DNGAF about cars for the most part other than wanting comfort, and a sunroof. Sometimes she will take my 2500 HD to keep the miles off hers (lease) but she dislikes going anywhere in it where she will have to park it.

These are bad ass. The Armada can be had for great deals. Love the motor in these vehicles.

My wife drives a suburban and she may find her way into a QX80 or Armada in the near future.

Got a heck of a deal on the 2022 and yes plenty of power and surprising not bad gas mileage. The infinity gets better gas mileage than my Dodge and rides way better.

Mine is an enthusiast, but not to my level. She had an 06 GT vert for a while. Had the usual mods. Lowered, tune, intake, wheels, exhaust. The funny part was how many people were surprised it was a manual after they learned it was her car. Unfortunately it had every known issue for that generation and soured her on another Mustang. She drove an A6 for a while and that car is now my daily. She now has a new Edge ST. I was originally looking at the Titanium for her, but then she asked about taking it to the track. She said she didn't want to be embarrassed. So the ST it was.

Mine definitely isn't an enthusiast but likes driving something nice. She drives a 22 Bronco Badlands Sasquatch now. She wanted a "cool" mom car when we were expecting our son. I think if we have another loading kids in this will get old for her. She's already not enjoying putting our son who is only 30lbs in a car seat in the Bronco. I'm going to push her towards an Explorer ST if we replace it.

My wife drives a Lincoln MKZ - this is her third or fourth one. She tried a BMW and said that was her least favorite vehicle after having it for a year - much smaller than her MKZ and she didn't think that she would miss the room as much.

Her favorite car she ever had was her 1999 TransAm convertible - although she said she would have a hard time getting in and out of it now. That's why she doesn't like going in my Mustang -- "too low, too loud, too rough a ride".

Just recently she wanted to look at a new Corvette and walked up to it and said, "yeah, no way I can get in and out of this". Then the sales guy said he had something else she might like, a 1974 Cadillac El Dorado convertible. We took it for a drive but after checking it at our house discovered it doesn't fit in our garage. If it had been a 60's with the big fins though she said that we would have been looking for a storage unit for it.

My wife drives me crazy! That's right, I'm still crazy about this woman. 26 years and she'll drive whatever. She knows it steady changes, buy spur of the moment purchases. It's a wild ride our life. She has the keys to all the vehicles and has driven them all. She was partial to the 03 Marauder because of the comfort. She had a jacked up Excursion she liked too. The coolest thing is when she would drive our military M1078 people would give all kinds of reactions. The whole family is into cars and trucks and she'll also participates in shows and sales. She's at the age now that she said I could trade her in for two 25 year olds.......I said no way! For real!

My wife is an enthusiast of sorts, really like trucks and Jeeps. She currently has a 392 Jeep Wrangler, if she could have got one with a manual, she would have.

My wife doesn’t care what she drives as long as it’s not a mini van. She drives a 2015 Toyota Venza, she absolutely loves it, we bought it brand new off the lot.

2014 Honda Accord LX-S that she doesn't drive, because she drives my 2018 F150 instead. All she cares about is comfort. She does enjoy driving the Cobra, she says it's fun to drive. So I told her she can keep the F150, but I'm going to trade the Honda for a F250 because we can't have the size trucks. Haha. Prob not gonna happen tho. We'll see. lol

Wife had two armada platinums back to back. I would not recommend it. Her new vehicle curb stomps the Armada by a country mile.
