The closest thing that we've ever had to an argument is when she volunteers to guide the Mighty Dodge's trailer hitch ball under the trailer tongue as I back up to the race car hauler. The ball needs to be in a very precise spot, as it is impossible to push an 8,000 pound trailer to line things up by hand. After a few weekends of biting my tongue after repeated alignment misses, I changed my hitch-up procedure.

To wit, I now have an old windshield-mount suction cup cell phone holder that I stick to the tailgate with my iPhone's camera pointing down over the hitch ball. I can see the video in the camera app on my Apple Watch, and I can get the ball in the correct position in less than a minute by myself every single time.....
