Worried? She should feel proud. She's obviously married to someone with some semblance of control.

My cylinder count is a little low at the moment:

92 Golf GTI 8v (DD)
92 Corrado VR6 (black-autocrosser, wannabe show car)
92 Corrado VR6 (green-mostly stock)
81 Alfa Romeo GTV6 (project, not running)

I don't have a truck right now, since I'm not circuit racing anymore (I also don't have a race car at the moment). I also haven't brought home an 80s Japanese car yet (I want to check out the Japanese Nonstalgic Car scene, but I want an 83-84 Prelude since I owned one new back then). And I'm missing having a BMW 2002 around (I've owned about five over the years).

If more than 2 of them run, then yes, you have a problem.

I need a barely running $300 craigslist car, stat.

I may be able to help your Japanese Nostalgic car wantings. I have an 87 Toyota Supra project that I will be unloading in a couple months. You can have it for a birdie (cheep). Swap in a 2JZ or a 1UZ, and have a blast load of fun.
