To the OP, just make sure you get all that extra schit the finance guy tells you about. The specialized air in the tires, dent repair, tinted window insurance, extra insurance, extra extra insurance, special paint protection, and the windshield washer fluid insurance

Catch?
Yeah, one day my Father tells me, "Boy, we need to talk". We sit down at the kitchen table. "Your wife has been with someone". Meaning she slept with my father's freaking boss at the construction company. I didn't know exactly who until I got a job there. Then while I'm sitting in the back seat of a GMC four door years later. The Boss turns around and tells me it was him.
I couldn't hate the guy. She did it out of her free will. Kinda disgusted it had been him. He was a man-whore.
I'm telling ya'. High school sweethearts are the best. Did she get a car out of the deal?

I think we need some pics to decide if she is worth an $80,000 vehicle. All joking aside, just go get it. You can't take the money with you. If 80,000 is going to affect your retirement. You definitely don't need a new car . Pics are still OK though

I’m just glad to know that if my wife wants a new car, she goes and gets one. She’s not a child and I’m not her daddy.

Thats not the vibe I’m getting from this discussion though. There’s a whole lot of “I” buy “her” being thrown around here. I’m not superior to my wife, we are equals…although she makes about triple what I make.

The key is to marry a woman from a more traditional culture. No one has ever enjoyed pushing a boulder uphill.
….or marry one who is fiscally conservative….several variables here that must be selected wisely prior to buying an engagement ring. Sysiphus.

I’m just glad to know that if my wife wants a new car, she goes and gets one. She’s not a child and I’m not her daddy. Same here. Been married for 33 years. She knows our financials as well as I do. We have complete trust in one another to know the other is not going to put us in a bad spot. We both know what we can afford. Not a lot to talk about in that regard. I personally want her to get the car she wants. She works hard, is a good woman great wife and an incredible mother and grandmother. I like seeing her happy and I like the peace of mind to know she's in a reliable vehicle.

Wife surprised me with an $85 truck for Christmas 2 years ago. When she's ready for a new ride I won't complain at all whatever it is.

Buy her the car, life is short-
If you live long enough, you will remember when new cars “used to only cost” $70-$80 K- I certainly remember when. Bought a new truck back in September for the first time in 16 years. I remember when.

She told me what she wanted I called my guy and they ordered it, It was supposed to be here for Christmas but S$%T happens. She wanted a 2025 Yukon AT4 Ultimate and that's what she got.
