My daily driver is a 2008 Chevy Equinox Sport SUV. If the weather is really nice though, I do drive my 2007 Honda Shadow Sabre.

Drive my vert most of the time. Other than that, I drive a Tacoma. Supercharged and almost as fun as my vert.

My '08 JSB convertible is my daily driver:



That picture was actually from a day that my wife drove it to work.

Here is a picture of the two Corvettes in the garage:



Our garage is a three car tandem garage, so the Corvettes are normally "stacked" on the right side and the wife parks her Jeep Grand Cherokee where the '08 is parked in the above picture.

I have the best Daily Driver of all time! It is a 1996 Geo Prizm SD with 233K miles! Runs like a top and gets 32 MPG. Best part is I paid $500.00 for the car and have driven it for a year. Only part I have changed was a starter ($70.) Everything still works ( But the seat belt warning light never goes off)

My daily driver is an 08 CTS. It stays outside because there isn't room in the garage.
