Expensive gift question: Do married women have dream cars anymore?

No dream cars though I think the new broncos are fun. I'd prefer electric but I enjoy road trips too much to depend on electric. I don't know much about cars nor care to learn much more beyond what's safest and can handle steep snowy hills.

I’m a married woman. I pick my own cars.

I choose to not to buy a “dream car” because l want to retire at a reasonable age. If cost was no object l would choose an Aston Martin that l saw at the car show, it’s $300k lol. In reality l drive a mini cooper.

I confess I have always wanted a car with a big bow on it for a gift. But it isn’t going to happen. We aren’t fancy car people. Or expensive gift people. DH drives an 18 yr old Blazer, and I’m in 7 yr old Subaru Forrester.

I'd drive that Blazer until the wheels fell off .. Nice ride IMO!

Was thinking the same thing on the Blazer. The GX 550 is nice. Also curious about the full-sized Broncos — haven’t been in one yet.

“Dream” car would prob be a vintage hobby car, maybe a P-38, Discovery 1 or 2, Defender. Also like G-Wagen, but it’s a little too ostentatious.

That’s so fun! Awesome she was able to get one.
I like the older Wagoneers with the wood paneling on the side

No clue why 😆

I appreciate the newer sports cars, but I also want to drive a manual sometimes. Way more fun. I also love the sound of a proper high performance engine. I want my kitten to purr.

We have two older manual cars
Nope not a paddle shifter
The best ride ever

Honestly my parents told us - if you want a car - it’s going to be a manual. I learned real quick and yep we taught not one but two kids how to ..
