While most husbands are trying to contend with the reality that they are only good enough to receive gifts of boxers, singlets, shirts, tie, etc., – a new breed of wives has decided to up the ante by buying expensive cars for their husband.
Car gifts are one of the most lavish gifts that one can receive. Generally, most beneficiaries of car gifts are women. For instance, in marriages, wives are the traditional recipients of car gifts from their husband.
However, one can’t deny the existence of cases where wives gifted their spouses with car gifts. However, these events mostly go unannounced. Ostensibly, this is done to protect the ego of the recipient.
Well, some men, especially some who are known to be able to afford good cars effortlessly themselves, have been known to have gotten car gifts from their wives.
