How often do you drive your C3?
Man, I have so much going on, that now that I have my vette drivable, I feel bad not driving it.
Unfortunately, I fall into the "dead battery" category and I am feeling sick about it. I did drive it tonight (after a jump start) :(

Last summer it was a daily driver while I put a new motor in my Suburban. This year it's delegated to evening and weekend duty only, no more rush hour madness :eek:

Well...mine's technically a daily driver.
But being unemployed I leave the house only a few times a week. And those are usually with my wife, which means we take her car.
So the vette doesn't get driven much right now.
And it's been out the last week plus with PS problems...hopefully almost solved...

I would have to say mine is a weekend driver. With the weather getting better now, it will probally be a occasional weeknight driver as well.

I try to drive mine whenever it is nice. I have to be pretty paticular though. Currently the heat is stuck on during the summer and stuck off during the winter. Explain that one... :crazy: I also have a one hour commute twice a day so... She is not the greatest in bumper to bumper traffic.

''Rosie'' is my daily Driver.
Occasionally I drive Hubby's C4...but that is only when ''Rosie'' is getting worked on on the weekends. :)
