My Wife Hates my Taste in Cars....
Why is that I wonder? When I look at cars, I am concerned about the history, the performance, the safety, the name behind the car. When she looks at a car she decides to buy based on how the rear of the car looks.....Everything else goes out the window.....all that matters is how cute it looks. I want to get her a new Acura....she likes the Mazda because of the Mazda emblem.....why is that? No matter how convincing my arguement that the Acura is more reliable with a better resale value...none of it matters....the Mazda's emblem is cuter...and that's what she wants....Please help me understand this.

Re: My Wife Hates my Taste of Cars....
Why does cute matter??? Well...okay...I don't like an ugly car either.....but just about all cars are pretty in their own way....especially the reliable ones with high resale value.

Re: My Wife Hates my Taste of Cars....
Stop worrying so much Groovy.....ALL new cars come with roadside assistance.
WE want it to be cute cuz its more fun to drive that way. YOU guys want your fancy a$$ cars because it makes you feel better about yourselves LOL. I was gonna say an extension of something but since you're Jamaican I guess that ain't so  Men just have this ego thing about their toys and machinery that we do not have.

Re: My Wife Hates my Taste of Cars....
Well to me a car is kind of like a pair of shoes...they have to serve a purpose yes, but I would much rather have sexy heels than a sensible shoe....and its the same with a car...I want to get around, but I would rather look cute doing it.....

An Acura is just about as sexy as you can get....with reliability and a high resale value to boot....

I'd still be worried......and depending on where she is...she can be stuck there for over an hour until help reaches her.

Re: My Wife Hates my Taste of Cars....
Listen, if a man knows one thing is to listen to his wife. No matter how your views are of what is more reliable, cost effective or whatever, bottom line is, when a woman wants something....she not gonna listen to what you say because she wants what she wants.
So just be obedient and get her what she wants.
