My husband has his keys to my Mustang and I have no problem with that. Whenever we go somewhere I always let him drive. What worries me is the few times he takes her out by himself......He has wrecked all four vehicles I have ever owned, three of them at least twice!
He almost lost all Mustang privliges the first night I brought the car home: ran over a bale of hay, turned it sideways while trying to "see what she'll do", narrowly missed a mailbox before nearly ending up in the ditch literally within the first 3 minutes of driving the car.
But, the "new" is wearing off for him and he has regained his senses while behind the wheel.

BAHAHAHAAA...LMFAO!!!......ZING!!!!!
I gave my husband the second set of keys for my Stang but I'm always in it so he can't drive it! I did let him drive the first day I got it for a short time and I let him take it to work once the second week.
Today was his birthday and he made some hints about taking it to work. I almost offered to let him but... NAH, I changed my mind! I guess I'll think of something to make it up to him!

Believe me, we had a nice little pow-wow after that
Although I have to admit, running over the bale of hay was unavoidable. Could've been worse, it could have been a cow or a hog.
All his friends have two things to say to me when they see my car "Nice car" and "Don't let him near it!" He is getting better though, growing up has that effect on a man.

An old Sam Kinison album discussed a man's ability to leave the house with his, you know. I thought it was just a comedy skit, who knew it was actually real.
And to that guy who was sitting on the porch in that small town looking at the car he couldn't drive because his wife took the keys...
Dude, you are a tool. Have fun doing the laundry, scrubbing the floors, mowing the lawn, painting the house, dusting the furniture, taking out the garbage, balancing the checkbook, and whatever else your wife TELLS you to do. My wife and I are about to release our new book titled "Marriage, it's for BOTH of you". Perhaps you can ask your wife if you can buy a copy. Of course, she's got a pretty good thing going, so perhaps you won't be allowed.
I say again, Dude, you are a tool. Now go fix mama a chicken pot pie!

I might let my husband drive it... we'll see if he's a good boy maybe.
They don't call me Warden 2 for nothing (my mother = Warden 1)! As she would say "what's mine is mine and what's yours is mine and don't forget it". :nono:
When I ordered the GT he brought his 65 Riv to the shop and is having the engine all done over. He thinks he's going to beat me in a 1/4 mile. Haaaa... the mechanic told him don't bother trying that GT will blow your doors off. Not what he wanted to hear! So, I felt bad for him and let him go buy a new John Deere tractor. He's happy for now... Guess who wears the pants in this family?

I don't think that was the case. He said he has a truck. I didn't see it though....his wife was out driving it!
After all these years,
My C/T still sucks!

My husband is 6'2. He drove the car through Va and half of PA with my kids in back. His knees banged up against the shaker and he looked like a chicken on a junebug.
He said quote This car is horrible. I don't know how you fit in it. It looks pretty, but you can't be comfy driving it. Hey- you wanna drive the rest of the way?
AND he hasn't been interested in driving it since.
I guess I am driving 22 hours home.
This was the first time he has driven it, because he is very into the "its your car I don't need to drive it mentality" He does have a set of keys and I had been asking him to drive it since she came home.
He now wants a big ole something.

Thats classic! We both share keys to all the vehicles. I would never tell my husband what he could or couldn't drive, especially since he pays for everything. Him=good job, Me=slacker B)

First off, most cars today, or atleast premium cars, have memory seat locations where you just press a button and you slip into your driving postion. Press another, you slip into your wife's. Second of all, a Beetle? I wouldn't be caught dead in one of thoose new ones.

I keep both sets of keys because my wife has no clue on how to drive a standard, let alone handle the power.

A few years back I saw a cool shirt that said "fast chicks drive sticks" or "fast chicks like sticks" I can't remember which but I thought it was funny
Heh, when I borrowed my girlfriends Volvo S40 while my truck was in the shop, she said "Please don't drive it like you drive your truck" and when we were in the car together, she made me hold her hand, so if I acted up, she gave it a nice squeeze. If I didn't get the hint, I got a nice little smack in the chest.
Of course, when she drives it, she really drives it, but when I really drive it, she is all worried. Oh well.
And I wouldn't blame her for taking the keys to her car with her if she went out, especially if she had a car with some *****. I am the type of guy that would burn the tires up, and replace 'em, and act like nothing happened. She hates that.
