Who rarely drives their car?
Man lately I hardly ever take the t/a out. i try to drive it at least once a week, and cruise it up to work once in a while, but i never get out and drive it for some reason. I'm always scared it's going to rain and I don't want it to get dirty. Plus I'm not a big fan on the DR's in the rain.
Finally this weekend i rolled down 249 and around to 45 up to conroe for lunch and back. I had a blast... I forgot how much fun that car really is to drive since I don't do it too much. That was probably the farthest it's been since I drove it up here from Lafayette.
The thing that was lame is I didn't see a single other f-body that I can remember. I saw one c5 that was squeaky and had one of the parking lights burnt out.

aight you guys don't make me feel so bad now. I daily drove it for 3 years (including the 1.5 years i lived overseas). I have right at 32k on it right now. I think one of the main reasons I don't drive it to work much is because it's just not as comfortable as the 'hoe...early in the morning, the last thing I want to do usually is sniff unburnt fuel and listen to loud exhaust haha

After I got my Blazer I havent driven it much, maybe 600 miles in the last year and a half. Runs fine and every thing, just dont get much of a chance, has like 67K on it, not bad a for 93. I cant really see getting the chance to drive it much in the next two or 3 years either, sure as hell wont ever be a daily driver again.

My car saw about 3 miles on it about 2 months ago when I raced my brother on the road, to see if his new H/C picked up anything. I also drove to McDonalds in the car in San Marcos about a year ago. LOL It gets driven alot.. LOL

I can't imagine not driving my Camaro. I love driving that car. Thats why I bought it. I drive mine everywhere I go unless the whole family is coming cause it only seats 4 and we are 5.

bought it in April, 2004 odometer was at 16,112
today, odometer is at 52,640.
that would be the definition of a daily driver. the car sits more on the weekends than it does during the week.
