The way I look at it she knows very well that you like the car and that is a fact as much as the sun rises each day. Then for her to degrade, say something negative or run her mouth about your car (hobby) is only throwing rocks at you not the car. A true woman would not say anything about their man's ride like that even if they don't like it. They would be "Whatever makes my man happy." It makes me angry when a woman won't let a fellow enjoy life once in awhile. And if you say something to them about anything they do they start jumping up and down like a three year old!
