How often do you drive your Fox? (besides DD people)

90mustangGT · Jul 5, 2011

If you Daily Drive it, well, that's awesome, but for the rest of us that use another vehicle for a daily driver: How often or much do you drive your Foxbody? Any reason behind it?

I haven't driven mine in almost two weeks. So hot lately along with high gas prices really puts a damper on it. On the days off I have, seems it rains or something. Plus a few issues. It's an automotic, and I need to complete a few things. This spring I was driving it all the time. Maybe I will in the fall. I think I drove it more in the winter.

i have had mine in working order since september 2010. I used to drive it every chance I got untill about two months ago. I changed the intake from stock 5.0 gt to a gt 40 intake and have had problems with idle ever since. I still drive it every weekend.

When the weather's decent, I try to drive at least one of them every weekend. During The Season, we do something car-related with our friends about every other weekend. During the winter, I'll take one out if it's not raining. I don't drive them to work, because I work in the city and parking is horrible.

weekend warrior.

Stock 1989 SSP LX coupe (105k original miles) — I drive it to local car shows most weekends from May through September. I would guess about 200 miles per year total.

Stock 1990 LX 5.0 convertible (49k original miles, and will be my daughter's in 4 years) — I drive it daily when no rain is forecast (never have the roof up) from April to November when it goes into storage. I would guess about 1,000 miles per year total.

Modified 1986 GT 5.0 convertible (34k original owner miles) — put it on the storage lift at the cabin last September and intend on not driving it all for a few years (will start it every few months to keep the Stabil circulating though).

when mine was running i drove it atleast 3 days a week. got 20 mpg on average and my commute is 13 miles round trip. why not drive it all the time?

citmov · Jul 6, 2011

1 or 2 times a week when it's nice out. Usually just around town. The Chicago heat doesn't bother me b/c my A/C blows ice cold. But I don't like leaving my car sitting out too long in direct sun so it gets back in the garage pretty quick unless if I'm working on it.

Stallian81 · Jul 6, 2011

Haven't driven mine in 2 years trying to finish it the right way this time.

Onefine88 · Jul 6, 2011

I drive mine only on weekends . I have two and I total around 1000 miles a year combined.

So my answer: not enough

Usually every day off if not on weekends.

VibrantRedGT · Jul 6, 2011

Haven't driven it yet (well first day receiving it and putting in garage). We stripped it down to the block, installed-heads, cam, intake and Vortech Blower. We started it for the first time in a month on July 4th.

gritchy5.0 · Jul 6, 2011

8 months out of the year and only a couple times a week. Usually just to go for a short cruise or to work once in a blue moon. This year it seems like it wants to rain every fricking day so she sits and waits for me.

This year it's been a monthly warrior, usually it's a weekend (or every-other-weekend) warrior

fivespeedsteed · Jul 6, 2011

havent moved my car in more than a month. been busy wtih work/class/vacation with the waverunner, so ive just been driving the truck.

i plan on getting it and driving it for a few weeks here soon

haven't touched mine in 2 years

I don't see the sense in having a toy car and not driving it. My philosophy is "if the sun's shining, it's what I'm driving". I don't drive it in the rain or snow, but other than that I absolutely drive the dog piss out of my car. I easily put more miles on the Stang in the summer time than I do my '06 Fusion. I've even contemplated putting a bike rack on the Mustang so I can drive it on days that I want to mountain bike after work.

ID89GT · Jul 6, 2011

Hardly ever, I think I've put maybe 200 miles on it since owning it.
