Default Post a pic of your non-Mustang Daily Drivers!

Okay, a lot of us have them, those vehicles we use for the daily grind to keep our Mustangs out of danger on a daily basis.

It's time to give our daily drivers a chance to shine! So post a pic!

Here's a pic of my Ram, it was taken today at the scenic overlook atop the Lake Belton dam.

Um well... I must be in the minority around here. I drive my 91 Mustang GT daily and try to keep the miles off the 06... but sometimes I have to bring it to work with me.

Same here. I drive my mustang everywhere without worrying about miles. Whats the point in having a cool car if you rarely drive it. I love my car!

Thumbs down Substitue Daily Drivers

Someone needs to explain to me the logic of buying a cool car like the Mustang that we all like to drive and then using something else as a daily driver.

If someone has a Mustang for car shows, or they have a collector, or they drive a zillion miles to and from work and need a Yugo for economy, maybe I understand. Otherwise Mustang's are made to drive and slide sideways.

I drive my car less than 2 miles a day and it sits in a parking lot all day.
I just had two kids throw rocks and damage my Angel, (I work at a
court) There is a pole that bleeds something all the time. So for my
peace of mind I got my hands on the Geo and and can rest easy!
I drive the stang on the weekends, It has made it so much more
enjoyable!!

Yep, I remember well the story of the vandalism. I also remember you came out ahead for the trouble, not that I would want to go through that.

Hey, it's even got the black wheels you wanted for the Mustang.

I hear you loud and clear and agree. Hate it when a car has to sit in the hot sun all day getting weather beaten. Good move you made. And yes, it gives me something to look forward to, to go out and enjoy a nice preserved, clean, and shinning car.

BTW, I think a big hood smiley face would go good on the hood of the Geo. and a new plate frame stating "MY OTHER CAR IS A STANG"
