My wife loves and hates mine. She hates the top off and I am "not allowed" when she is in it. (She had cancer as a kid and lost her hair due to treatment so she is very VERY particular about her hair and with the top off/windows down or doors off it gets messed up=rage against the jeep) LOL.
She likes that it is big and ruggid but hates that I am always messing around with it. She wants to drive it and I have strongly pushed her to do so but is always afraid she will break it to which I have always said, "its a jeep, ride, break, upgrade, repeat." Oddly enough she just gives me the look, lol.
She has bought me many a upgrade for my jeeps over the years so I guess that means she is a keeper. She just hates that I sell them after many years and many upgrades. I hear the, why the hell did I buy that bumper if you were going to sell it? To which I just say, hey, it was great while it lasted and now onto bigger more fun jeeps
In the end she does like it and enjoys riding in it and I have even caught her helping me work on it. Not sure if she is warming up more to my green machine or if she is just missing me out in the garage, lol.

My wife hates my Jeep. Flat out hates it. I think it's primarily due to the fact that I bought it without really consulting her for her "opinion".

Regardless, we've had it since May and she's only been in it a handful of times and doesn't want to drive it. My two kids LOVE it though.

Bummer for my wife I guess.

I have seen both 'pro' and 'con' in this thread, I must say I have a great wife that loves my Jeep and the trail riding we do ... says "it's the most fun you can have a 7 MPH!" to people that ask her.

My wife digs it. My JK is my weekday commuter, and our weekend getaway vehicle. If its summer and nice out, the top and doors are off and we're out and about adventuring.

Wife liked my 2010 Sahara, but now "likes my 2013 JKUR more"... most importantly, though, my 4-year old daughter is IN LOVE with my Jeeps! I see many father-daughter wheeling trips in our future!
