Wife's first drive...
I've had my 1984 Corvette for almost a year now, and I have put a fair amount of money and time into it. I bought it pretty cheap, and it runs a lot nicer now than when I first got it, so although it is no show winner, I am proud of the car, and enjoy the heck out of it. It was beautiful here in Maine today, so my wife and I went for a drive. I drove for the first 10 or so miles, and even got a wave out of a C5 driver. Then I pulled over and told my wife it was her turn. She looked at me like I had 3 heads, but didn't argue too much. She wanted to stay in the parking lot, but I told her no, she should take it on the open road. She warmed up after a few minutes and had some fun, and also got a wave from a fellow C4 driver! All in all it was a great drive, and now my wife can't say I never let her drive my baby.

Good for the Mrs! Mine has driven my vette for a block and a half. Does not like to ride in it, hard to get into, it's " too low, too loud and too fast." Just the way I like it! :D

I can't make my mom drive mine. She says she hates the manual transmission, etc. Nevermind she drove a manual for 18 years.......

Jeanne drives our Vette as much as she wants, I guess seeing as how she bought it I pretty much have to let her. She really enjoys driving it and doesn't kitty foot around either :auto:

I wish I could get my wife to drive the 'vette. I've had my 92 for a little over two years and she still won't take the time to learn to drive it. :(

My wife used to drive my 87 vert, but she will not drive my ZR-1. Ive had it about a year now... she said she is afraid of it! :lol:
I still want her to take it sometime... what I might do is leave one morning with both sets of keys for her car... then she will have to take the Z! :)
