Default What is your daily driver?

Saw this thread on the C4 forum, so what does the C3 crowd use as a daily driver, grocery getter?

Trips to Costco, Home Depot runs, etc, what have you got?

I'll start. Got this A4 S-line a few months ago.

A giant POS.... but it keeps running! Lots of parts have broken or fallen off.... but it just keeps going! AND.... it hauls heavy cars (like the 3700 pound Grand Prix) on the trailer like it was nothing..... 1997 Suburban.

2000 F150 gets the job done as the daily driver. The rust is beginning to show on the tailgate now, but it's paid for and dependable.
