In another thread someone questioned why someone’s wife would “need” a 392 wrangler and it got me thinking, most men in here spend a decent amount of money on the cars they drive so what is the budget for your wives?

Does she get the same GT500/ C8 budget you have our is she in a base Jeep Renegade? Is she a car enthusiast or could she not care any less about what kind of vehicle she’s in….

I offered to buy her anything she wanted and she chose an Outback XT. It is a very nice ride for the $.

My hellcat was meant to be for her but she never drove it.

She is not an enthusiast but did want me to build a 6 car garage so I could fill it with cars. She is a total peach.

Minivan. Chrysler Pacifica. She could not careless about cars. She supports my car hobby (most of the time)!

Yep, mine supports my car hobby as well. She's not a car person at all. My wife likes trucks.

She drives a 2014 F-150 Lariat edition.

That's good for me because we use her truck to trailer my cars around when needed.

My wife just wants to drive something that comfortable. She is not a performance enthusiast, although she DID have a blast as my co-pilot when we did a Mini Cooper Club Lake George mountain rally. LOL. She drives a 2021 Acura TLX, and loves it. She does, though, wish it was a tad smaller to make it easier getting into the garage.

My wife drives a middle of the road optioned Ford Edge SE AWD. It has heated leather and the 8" screen, but other than that it's pretty much basic. She doesn't care what she drives and would probably be driving around a $500 beater if it weren't for me refusing to have a rusted out shitbox in my driveway.

My wife drives an Accord Sport that looks like this though it's the 4 cylinder version.

Looks nice enough, has been dead nuts reliable over 60k miles, gets great gas mileage and actually handles pretty well for a sedan. The 19" tires are a bit more costly than smaller diameter tires but not bad.

She's not an enthusiast but appreciates nice cars and definitely wants something decent looking and reasonably fun to drive, no minivans ever as well. She does support my automotive interests as long as it doesn't take too much money or too much time.

My wife generally doesnt care about what she drives until I finally convinced her to look at the G70 3.3TT, now thats what she drives. She also supports my car habit for the most part but limits me to 2, if I decide get something else I gotta get rid of something first. Thats what she says at least, havent put it to a test yet.

My wife had a 2020 ford explorer and hated it. She upgraded back in March. She wanted another Expedition but at the time we couldn’t get any deals on one. It worked out for the better. She loves her Infinity QX80. It’s the best riding car I’ve ever been in. Had it ceramic coated right after she got it.

My wife likes sports cars but she doesn't know how to drive manual so that eliminates a lot. But we're expecting so only suv's will be in our future

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.
