Default What does your better half drive?

I'm not really interested in your DD, because most are compromises, at best. But what car(s) do you put your most loved ones in? Do you like/dislike the vehicle choice? Why?

Thanks, in advance

Kent

wifey drives a 2008 subaru legacy gt.

likes: got a great deal (friend is a manager at servco), loaded (leather, wood grain, sunroof, etc.), easy to drive, not very large but adequate room / trunk, 5 star crash tested, si drive (changes shift points for spirited driving), planted in the rain (awd), turbo

dislikes: tight fit for larger passengers especially in the back seats, mid 20's gas mileage (especially when i drive), automatic (si drive lagging at times), very heavy, small under steer

overall, we love the leg. its a great car and we got it for a great price. great commuter / grocery getter but the real test will be the kids

chicks and tundra's don't mix. My ex did a similar number on my bike, not totaled but close. That was years ago.

The soon to be wife (different girl) drives a civic hybrid, 2008. she loves it. Plenty of room, good visibility, excellent mileage, cheap maintenance, all the good stuff Honda's are known for.

Prior to that she had a 02 new beetle. It was a fun car, but not practical, very expensive to maintain ($300 for basic maintenance etc...)
