Default Feet on dash

My girlfriend got mad at me because I wouldn't let her put her feet on my dash when she rides with me. Am I an a hole for telling her that is morally wrong to do that? I would understand if I drove a mustang but I am having issues with this. Please help

No feet on my dash.

Unless those feet are wide apart.

Tell her she will have to go into a time out if she trys to put her feet up on the dash again.
Besure to count to three if you really want to make some good points with the GF.

That would drive me absolutely nuts, no feet on my dashboard, ever! Besides, in an accident her knees will smash right into her face from the airbag, not a pretty sight. I'm sure she'll say that's not going to happen, but who ever plans an accident in advance.

Or, if the airbag goes off, the feet and legs will be flexed beyond usable limits

Just from a safety standpoint. Hers, Its a real bad idea with an air bag. I have that problem in my pick up on long trips but at least she can turn that air bag off. And it is just a pick up although a real nice one.

Sounds like she needs a 'bitch slap' to set her straight, then show her the door! What a yahoo, no class!
She probably reads, and smokes while you're doing her, and chews with her mouth open!!!!! Did I miss anything?

I don't have a vette (yet), but I don't mind if she puts her bare feet on the dash, socks are preferred. Any type of footwear tends to drive me crazy, same with my kids kicking the back of my seat with their muddy shoes.
