My wife follows the Don's wife rule, but a little different. As long as what she drives has working Air, Auto, Power steering, doesn't look bad, and starts, I can do whatever I want. I am not allowed to make payments, but can buy whatever I want to flip and keep money in reserve to purchase my next toy. The only unwritten rule seems to be that she gets the pick of what is in the fleet at any given time.
