Daily driver?

Who daily drives these trucks? I have been away from these trucks for almost two years now, and have been itching to get an 84-87 swb 4x4. In the past i have daily driven a 79 3/4 ton on 35's and a 83 jimmy on 31's. Just wondering if anybody else daily drives these trucks and if so what do you have?

I am going to run my '72 K-20 every day on the farm................I currently drive my '71 C-20 with a Cummins engine daily. IMO, with a 4x4, they work the best for a DD when left fairly stock.

Re: Daily driver?

I drove mine daily until it was painted red in 98. I had a step on it back then so getting in was a little easier. It was muddy most of the time.

Re: Daily driver?

I drove mine daily until we had a baby 3 monthes ago. Not I have drop off day-care duty and we have to take the car. My poor yellow blazer maybe gets driven 1-3 times per month now. :-(
