All the more reason for her to drive some more modern that doesn't need care and maintenance. I wouldn't feel comfortable handing the keys to my TD over to somebody who doesn't understand the importance of watching the gauges and immediately stopping if something is wrong.

Just my two cents on your dilemma.
