V.I.P Parking for DTR's only!!
I am curious if anyones wife or girlfriend feel like an old lady (we are 35 yrs old) driving or sitting in a "big grandpas looking car". My wife had mixed feelings. She likes the power, comfort/safety and color DTR of the car. But at times she feels awkward sort of like and old lady when driving the Marauder because its a big car and she notices a lot of guys looking at her driving it. Anyone else care to share.

This is how I feel about my Marauder everyday.....:banana::banana2:
 
My cousin is in her mid 30's and is always talking about how funny it is that everyone thinks shes a cop driving around. Ive never heard her say she feels old driving it and shes on her second MM.
 
Traded in my Ranger for my Marauder... Girlfriend said I would miss the truck... Everytime we drove together I would romp on it and say "I still don't miss the truck"... oh yeah... and she is not my girlfriend anymore!

I found this great girl who is somewhat into cars and complimented mine when she first rode in it... she liked the gauges and the exterior look of it... she is still around! haha
 
I've always said that this is the car women love to hate. Powerful, aggressive, sinister...it took 2 months before my wife would even get in it. However, after she finally got into it, her first comment was "this is really nice!" She now loves it, almost as much as I do.
 
its the boost

my 50-something wife is quite happy driving the MM. She lives to blow the doors off the local Camaro girly boys.
 
My wife lets me drive my car sometimes (like today:D). She loves the car and the power to pass the Minivans. It's a matter of her perspective I guess. She could be hauling the grandkids around in a minivan or SUV, but she loves this bad looking MM.

I remember 35. I thought life was almost over at that point.... 40 :eek: "OMG" was just around the corner and that was really old. Well, I hit 50 a few weeks ago and I think I'm just hitting my stride. More Perspective, mine...
 
Wife loves it

My wife owned a 01 WS6 Trans Am 6Spd and some mods but she loves the DOHC feel in the MM. She was driving back from work in the MM and a 05 or 09 Mustang GT was trying to play, so they did a 50mph pull and took it by 5 cars. Girls dig the MM.
 
The girlfriend does like the car a lot and romps on it. She liked the Ford LX Sport before it.Now she says get rid of the Jag.:snoopy:
 
I've been single for awhile.

But Sam (PantherP71)'s girlfriend saw it at our winter cruise and told him that the car was "hot" and that he needed to buy one.

Guess what he did within a couple weeks.
 
My wife calls the Marauder 'her car'. When I call it 'my car' she glares at me :P
When we first met I was driving an ex-cruiser, and she LOVED it. Reminded her of the Blue's Brothers. Now she's obsessed with big Fords, because it reminds her of our early days together.
THERE IS NOTHING GERIATRIC ABOUT A CRUISER OR MARAUDER!!!!!!!! Your girl friend is way off, bro.
EVERYONE stares at my car as I drive it, especially guys, and it's not because they think 'oh man, what a geriatric ride'. They stare cause they think it's such a bad-ass ride. Your girl friend is projecting her story when she sees people look. Common psychology, but she's way way off IMHO. If you aren't tinted, that could help change her mind.

Actually, quite the opposite for me. My wife is >cough< >cough< years old; but says that the MM makes her feel like 35 again. Of course, she doesn't mind riding with Grandpa anyway. ;)
 
The wife's opinion

My wife calls mine the Old Lady car, but she enjoys the comfort and power.

That's OK, she drives a convertable Mini Cooper S that I call the Clown Car. :)
 
My wife loves anything that gets me outta here. LOL, seriously, she likes it. Ever since our first date, she has had a thing for "the other woman". But she is afraid to drive it.
 
The MM at my house belongs to the woman. I drive a Duramax. She gets mad as all get out cause she cant outrun my diesel. She loves it so much I only get to drive it on special ocassions.
