that'll haul your vette and 6 people quite nicely hehe, seriously though the mega cabs are great for hauling a full load of people comfortably. I'd be driving one now but the payments were allmost 200 more a month than my 01, so megacab.... or house? hehe

As the title says, what cars do you have for the daily driving duties? I'm in the market for something I just dont know what!!! So I need a couple of ideas.

Thanks.

Ok...so I finally traded the Mustang for a 2005 Black Convertible Vette with the Z51 package...I love it...some things I do miss about the Mustang but having a car for 10 years is a long time and I was ready for a change. I have had it for 3 weeks. Actually took it to Bend one weekend and set the cruise on 60 and got 28.5 mpg...hard to believe huh? I can see there are more Vettes on here now since the last time I was on this forum....StangVette.com maybe?

So DAILY DRIVER? I have had a 2004 Honda Civic Hybrid for back and forth to work. I commute about 45 minutes each way and consistently get 45 mpg and can pass at 80 on the backroads if needed. It is a great car and one to consider. Good luck. Let us know what you get.

Daily Driver: 05' Chevy Impala

Yes, I absolutely hate it in nearly every way. Makes me love the toy even more. But hey, the price was right so I can't complain too much.

Not sure if I would really recommend one though...

It sucks to lose another Saleen.

82 chev p/u. Actually gets pretty decent mileage if i keep my foot out of it, but the motor has less than 1000 miles on it and the 36s act like tall gears, so i'm doing about 1600 rpm down the freeway.
