Who wears the pants??? I'd say when she buys the gas she can dictate what you drive! Pickup commuting? Seriously?

As far as ultimate commuter bike, I like the old Honda Super Cubs. I still don't know why the rest of the world gets them but not us (U.S.).

As far as not tripping traffic lights, in MN the law was recently changed to say that if the light won't change for a motorcyclist, they can stop then proceed through on a red if it's clear of traffic. Check the laws in your state.
