Sierra · 09-05-2002, 07:58 PM

54 miles a day, Monday thru Friday. 12 mpg and worth every drop.

minibike · 09-05-2002, 08:08 PM

As soon as I am done, I plan on sending the Crown vic to the final resting grounds and driving it 7 days a week. That is why I opted for the fuel injected LT1 with AOD.

JoetheMobster · 09-05-2002, 08:21 PM

Not every day, but as much as possible!

**67OLDSTYLE72** · 09-05-2002, 09:20 PM

she is my one and only transportation, everyday, except when i decide to fix her up, then shes down a day or so, but other than that....

scott's69 · 09-06-2002, 02:38 AM

I drive mine everyday....and car shows on the weekends!!! I even haul the trash off on the way to the shows!!! (It brings me luck)

Project1970 · 09-06-2002, 04:14 AM

Mine was a daily driver...it's less now, only because I'm at college and a bicycle is about a million and one times easier to deal with from class to class. It makes less trips, but they're much longer now...

Purs · 09-06-2002, 09:16 AM

I did when I had about a mile to work, now I average between 300-500 miles a week on the highway. I guess I should've sprung for the overdrive and Fuel Injection..... (Do you think my wife would buy that?)

Gene · 09-06-2002, 10:15 AM

I try to drive mine as much as I can, but the wife gets kinda disturbed when she sees that 2002 Dodge Quad Cab 4X4 just sitting LMAO!!
