Default Wife is driving me crazy!

Prior to March'05 I lived in a nice 4-bedroom house on 5 arces, with double lockup garage (auto doors), and a 20"x40" shed .. so all my cars [ AU ute, SV8, '69 Javelin, '69 Dodge Phoenix, 70 Plymouth 'vert ] were neatly stored away and under cover. In respect to my wife's wishes, we sold up and moved to another town, currently in a rental looking for another property. This rental is a 2-bedroom with NO car cover .. and LOTS ot trees in the yard; ie. you cannot park anywhere in the yard without being under a tree! As a temporary measure I put up one "temporary" carport for the SV8 and I've just bought another for the AU (still to put up). However, my wife is now talking about building and staying in this rental for at least another year .. maybe two! Meantime, the Phoenix sits under a gum tree under a tarp, the Javelin is in a lean-to at my parents house and I'm paying rent to store the Fury in a 3mx6m storage shed .. and the SV8 and AU are sitting in the yard filling up the plenum chambers with leaves, getting covered with dirt, peed on by the neigbourhood cats and waiting for a large tree to fall on them! Should I just put my foot down and tell my wife to settle on a "near-enough" property, or at least insist we move to a better rental (and higher cost) ... or am I just being pedantic?
Rod.
