I put weekend warrior because usually during the week I'm utilizing public transit simply because it is cheaper.

This way I can also keep 100 octane in it and not really worry about wasting it driving to the store

I have to update mine to WW, as well. I've gotten a new little rice box that gets 35+mpg and I don't care if I get door dings in it. Hell, being a Masta Waxah, I don't even wash it!

It was a DD until Sept. of 05'.... 400+ miles per week for almost 2 years. Had some breakage, had to borrow vehicles for a while to get to work. Bought my old slow-verado in late Feb. of this year. I voted WW because that's what it will be when it goes back together next month.

I was going to DD it once finished so I could R&R some things on the truck, but my dad is in poor health and I have his 70' GMC to drive until he gets better. Happy to have his truck to use, just hate him being ill to facilitate it.

The 98 SS is my DD, the 77 TA would be a WW and the truck would be a 'tweener.

lol. Just saw this.

Now, there all broke. lmao.

One is stuck at work, the other at home. Both clutch related. Trying to buy, another, dirt cheap, daily driver this week. lol. Then maybe the vette will be more of a nigh owl, weekend warrior/track car.

Is that better, John?

Soon.......

Between running this shop, and getting my police package together, I've been a bit busy. But I'm about to give myself more free time in the very near future.
