Please take this with the understanding a large amount of humor.
I'm doing driving school with my wife this evening in the GT. She is petrified to drive this, but we have to do this. Some history: when she and I first met, I tried and tried to teach her how to drive a manual transmission, but came to realize that this just wasn't going to work. I believe that it was genetic as I experienced her father trying to drive a stick shift in Germany one time!
She drives over 25K miles a year in her job doing residential real estate appraisal, so it makes zero sense to me that she has such fear of the car. I've told her that this may be the easiest car to drive she has ever driven, but it's not easing her mind. We are going to switch to whisper mode, take it out of one-pedal driving and get started in a school parking lot. Any guidance? I have zero doubt once she drives the car, she will want to drive it a lot more. She is driving an Audi Q5 now, so is used to all wheel drive, etc.
Oh, and she has stated flat out - no video.
Keep us in your prayers!
