My techniques are fairly stealthy. She sometimes gets a little antsy when I come off the Interstate and never touch the brakes.
She understands and appreciates the fact that we have saved a considerable sum of money from driving efficiently and she appreciates my knowledge of which vehicles are her best choice for highest possible mileage.
She does insist on buying tall vehicles for visibility and protection, which is something I would not do myself, and she is concerned about me being injured on a motorcycle, even though after 15k plus miles on bikes I have reached the point where I can anticipate the stupid actions of others and take measures to not let them become a threat. It requires your aggressive behavior to be under control at all times.
She is an independent thinker who appreciates saving money, because at times in her life she had to raise 2 children on a very small income with little or no support from her children's father, who did not have the means.

Any time we are together I am always the driver.
Enough said?
