Why are most women car ignorant??

I have to vent here. My girlfriend has a 95 Chrylser Sebring V6. Decent car, fairly reliable, comfortable, gets the job done. Over the past two months she has managed to nearly destroy this car. First, she calls me while I'm on the road to tell me she thinks she has a flat. She's on the highway. I tell her if it is safe (which it was), to leave the car there and get a ride home. And told her "DO NOT DRIVE ON THE FLAT TIRE!" So, what does she do, she drives on it. I take the tire off when I get in town, plug it, and fill it with air, and shure enough it's ruined from her driving on it. $100 down the tube. Of course the tire shop does not give you any bargains when you need one H rated tire at 8:30 at night and have to have the car by the next morning. Then, a few weeks ago she calls me to tell me that her temp gague is fluctuating between the VERY TOP and the bottom!!!! I told her to shut the car off immediately and we would take care of it. So what does she do, she drives it home. Luckly she didn't do any damage, and I was able to replace the thermostat and get it back on the road. Don't get me wrong, she's a great girl, but she is just so stupid when it comes to making decisions regarding this car. Ok, venting done, I feel better now.

Anyone here have good stories about their significant others doing stupid stuff with a car?
