Angry spouse can't stop wife's purchase

Dear Terry,
My wife purchased a car in Virginia and drove it home. I was furious at what she paid. Can it be returned and the contract voided?
-- William

Dear William,
Assuming your wife is an adult, she can make decisions and purchases independent of you. There are no grounds for returning the vehicle.
