They just borrow their hubby's pickup truck that have the lockable console inbetween the front seats.
My wife rarely uses her car if my truck is not in use. She says she feels much safer in the bigger truck, not being intimidated by some rednecks. Also with the trailer hitch sticking out the back, a bump by hijacker/robbers/rapist is discouraged.
For a while she was thinking about a SUV ( sit up high & also keep up with the Joneses who in this day in time have shunned the Station Wagon). I discouraged her as many SUV's in the reasonable price range will turn over easier than a big pickup.
[I}About 100 women at Volvo are doing something no one in the auto industry has ever done. They are designing a car for affluent, independent women. And it's definitely not pink.
The concept car, which will make its debut at the Geneva Auto Show in March, is a silver, sporty coupe with gull-wing doors, a 225-horsepower engine and tons of storage space. It's easy to park and easy to maintain.

According to the article, supposedly what women want includes: (the expanations are in the story)
no hood
storage space
no gas cap
easy to clean
easy to park
and the tires are run-flat
The TV story on Good Morning America noted there also were no child safety seats.
