There is another more important reason for your wife to drive it.
She may have to one day.
What if you have some kind of medical issue while away from home on a trip?
Maybe you sprained your left ankle. Minor but more than enough to make the clutch a sworn enemy.
i have always had a policy that my wife has to be able to drive ANY vehicle I own, just for that reason. She doesn't have to want to drive it. She just has to be ABLE to drive it. So far they've all been autos but I see a Super 10 coming at some point.
That is ok though, it will be easier to teach her how to shift a truck transmission BECAUSE she doesn't know how to drive a car with a stick.
