You have your priorities straight IMO. I'd do the same for my wife.

My wife likes to drive manual transmission cars, but our Corvette intimidates her. Maybe I shouldn't have shown her "what it will do" regularly. She really likes to ride in it any time though. I appreciate her support, and I do the same for her interests - 100%.

Mine helps by leaving me alone in the garage, but will come out and give me support when I need to ask a question, or show her something that I did. Other than that, on a Saturday she will leave me alone, and bring me hot wings and a beer around 12 noon to make sure I have something to eat. Shes definitely a keeper.

My wife can identify a classic most of the time, but the exhaust fumes keep her from riding with me. and thats ok!
