I dream up reasons to get mine outta the garage! Been known to drive the truck home to get the Vette if I can get the parts or supplies I need in it. Park the vette and get back in the truck with the parts, et al and go back to work! I am not sick am I ?????? Good I didn't think so

If I can park it without a hassle, I take the vette :-) (yes, even to Home Depot, if my wife is gonna wait outside I love telling her "honey, I'm just gonna pick up a coupla sheets of plywood" just to see the looks on the faces of the people around :-)
(and No, I would only be taking the vette to HD to pick up something small........you think I would actually get plywood ! :-) ?

My Black '98 has been a daily driver off an on since I bought it last September,......I had a highly modified '96 Z28 that was just as nice as the Vette, so it was hard to choose which one to drive. But, I just sold the Z28 last month, therefore the Vette has been my only car until just today!
I just bought a white 1980 C3 today that will more than likely be my new daily driver,......and the Black '98 will be:......well, I guess that one will be my other daily driver.
(It all depends on what kind of mood I wake up in,.....

I agree with you 100% on that one, and couldn't have put it in better words if I tried!!!

I tried that with other cars and didn't enjoy them!

Some combination of daily driver and week end warrior, never strip and track. It is not a daily driver. But I do like taking it to work once or twice during the week. Too bad it has rained 18 or 19 days in a row, as I really enjoy driving the Vette.
