What's your Daily Driver?

2014 Ram 1500 QC 4x4 plus I use it as my work truck. Was using my 1993 Eagle Vision TSi as a run around car until the tranny acted up. Looking to sell it or may just fix it, too nice of a car to let go cheap. Need to make up my friggin' mind on it!

Had a 93 Vision TSi until my son killed it. Got the body fixed but couldn't find all the noises and such so traded it in - that was a very nice car.
 
99 GM Suburban C1500 180k miles... cheapest thing I can get parts for that can haul a 4x8 sheet of plywood or 3 rows of seating... The back seats haven't been in passenger position for 2 or 3 years though. About half the time I have something back there waiting for its destination, beats the pickup as far as weather protection is concerned.
Back up vehicle is 98 chevy c2500 p/u 275k miles... paid $1000 for it, tuned it with discards from the suburban and use it for household chores... not driven much and haven't even looked at the a/c but wait until I go get a load of compost for the yard... every home owner has use for a p/u once in a while.
BTW found this pic when I dug out the bus pics earlier...
Just noticed that happening last summer... and they used to look new. No cleaning products have been used on them and I have owned since 2008. Global warming???

Is that an old Pontiac wheel cover on the front wheel?
I had a pretty vast collection of hubcaps and wheelcovers, mostly picked up from the streets of Detroit during the 1970s. Unfortunately, this method means I had very few full sets. I only have three of these Pontiacs, from an early sixties Tempest. These pictures were taken in 2012 for Craigslist when I had to reduce my stock.

Now if you want some fun, put on 4 and take it to Pep Boys and get a rotation... Watching the poor kid deal with old hubcaps that don't screw on with fake lugnuts will be both amusing and sad. Amazing how stuff that common is so uncommon now.
 
My 78 NYB unless I need to tow something or it's snowing then I'll drive my 07 Titan LE 4x4, bought new with every option possible.

I wish I could remember the things that happened yesterday like the things I remember 40 years ago.

A guy like you usually rewards themself on their retirement with a special vehicle.
I'm looking forward to what yours will be.
 
Here is mine - a 1986 Ford Country Squire LX. Just turned 87K. I'm the fourth owner, always been a local OKC car from new. Mileage is 20 hwy/16 in-town, can't ***** about that for a full-sized V8 car!

2015 Dodger Charger R/T Road and Track Edition. Fully loaded, Stan. Every single option. Washed weekly.



That definitely would have been one of my choices when I was commuting and rich.
Seriously, I could see myself in a car just like yours.
 
Just sold my 97 Nissan Maxima for more than I paid for it a year ago, to buy tires for my newest vehicle ever, an '02 Pontiac Gran Prix. Neither have or will be washed by me, and for less than $500, I don't care what's on the hood or grille.

Winter daily is a '95 LHS, my truck when I need it is a '98 1500 4x4 which is soon to be replaced by a cargo van of some sort. This season it's hard to say which I'll drive more, the Imp or the vert but those will get a lot of seat time you can bet!:thumbsup:
67 A100? Would be an awesome fit!
