Fwiw, my wife didn't want a DRW. She didn't like the looks of one which I agree. It would only have worked for me if I had two vehicles since I couldn't daily drive a DRW where I worked. She also drives the TC. After driving the SRW with TC "once", she said she'd prefer I drive.
However, with the F450 DRW, she takes the TC on multi-hour road trips to swim meets with daughter and her girls. It took one panic stop due to a dumb driver, to take her admiration of the F450 to the next level. Obviously, it's more stable which she noticed immediately even as a passenger.
She also appreciates not really having limits on how many things to bring with us. I explained what we were trading off with a SRW. We had it 8 1/2 years that way. It is doable as long as you realize you need to bring less and not max out water, etc.
Just make sure your wife understands the tradeoffs.
