I let the wife drive it if she wants to, I even encourage her to do so. No sense in paying for a car that just sits on the drive way. Personally I believe its one of those unspoken "man duties" to maintain the vehicles, but that's just me. Plus I enjoy maintain our vehicles, so it's a plus.

I knew you guys could be tough but dang. Y'all gonna have me signed up for the Dr. Phill show. Actually me and the wife have a great relationship I'm just stingy with my jeep. Also I would never sabotage it to keep her from driving it or hide the keys. I just simply wondered if any one else has had a similar problem and if so give any good advise on how to handle it.
But, the comments about Dr. Phil and advice to report the Jeep stolen have been fun to read

Not getting a new wife. New jeep would be great if I could afford it just not feasible right now. Ultimately would love to buy her a triple black Sahara and keep my white Rubicon.

Its more of an annoyance than a issue. Just don't want to come off like too much of a Dick when I tell her hands off the jeep. Just can't wait to lift it and put roaring tires on it then she will leave it alone. Did have a thought of removing the drivers door during the week 
. She couldn't lift the dang thing to put it back on haha. She hates it with the top or doors off causes it messes her hair up.

This thread makes me lough... when I sometimes ask my wife to drive the Jeep, her response is - "I like high seating position, but in normal cars. This Jeep is not not a car, it's a beast"...

Any ideas to make it less appealing for her to drive. Please Help.[/QUOTE]
You could always tell her for offroading purposes you removed the front and rear swaybar and it's really not very street friendly. You'd be worried she flip it and cause herself and others to be in danger.

These are the mods i did. Im happy, but not my mom, cohsin and brother not as much
- Antirock sway bar- more body roll
- Trektop NX- louder inside
- Dynomax off road exhaust system- Louder everywhere
- 35" tires/2.5" lift - hard to get it
I love the way it turned out, but they think i ruined my jeep. I like the way they think lol
