I get to pick between the jeep and the blazer. The jeep is way more comfortable and easier to drive the Blazer is a 3 speed with a granny gear and the heat sucks but its still fun to drive.

My '06 GT serves as a daily beater while the '89 sits pretty in the garage. I guess in a way it's backwards to have the newer car be the workhorse, but that's how I do it. My Fox is heavily modified and has 48k miles, while the '06 only has suspension upgrades, and it has 124k miles!

'06 WRX. It just turned 60,000 miles. Only about 25,000 miles have been put on it in the last 4 years; I work from home so I really don't have many places to go. Helps keep the mileage down on my cars.

thanks buddy! its a 99 the last year before it got changed to the rounded front end and turned into a womens truck, funny how they went back to square shaped now when i park next to new ones they almost look identicle to my 99. Mine has a K&N and a Flowmaster dual exaust catback, my whole interior is done by Southern Comfort customizing seats etc. Seat are grey leather dual heat & ac 2 elec. fold down tvs, dvd, vcr, game system, 12 speaker 10 cd changer, seperate rear audio system with headphone jacks etc. Southern Comfort does a nice job no silly crap all over truck only a logo on the back door. And yes you are right gas wasnt bad till i added a 3 inch body lift with 33" mickey thompson biclaw radials had to do it tho truck looks so much better lifted.

Most days I still DD my '92 but I'll drive the Suburban ("The Fridge") now and then because it has a much better sound system.

Not backwards at all. That's exactly what I will be doing when I eventually get a newer car. As much as I don't mind dd'ing a Fox I'm ready to commute in something more up to date. 2011 GT is at the top of the list.

Cool '06.

It's the best snow/wet car I've ever driven. As long as the tires are good, it shouldn't have any trouble getting down an average unplowed street. The ABS is brilliant, too.

These do run a little more expensive than your average compact car, but they're worth it.

I've always thought it would be tits to roll a Benz as a DD. We may end up getting one at some point later down the road after we get rid of my wife's '12 Pilot and don't have the need for a kid-mobile anymore.
