I just picked up this DD a few weeks back.. 04 Tahoe fully loaded for $10k. Interior looks and smells like new. I love this body style Tahoe and its perfect for a DD. Now my only problem is leaving it stock! I can't leave anything stock, I always feel the need to mod it! haha
As it sits now
My plans for it, Z71 matched grill, bumpers, new lights, a slight drop, and wheels.

07 C6 coupe Z51 is my DD. When the weather really sux or I need to carry 4 people or something I drive a 2000 740i - those are really good cars for the money. We also have a 2003 X5 that my wife drives most of the time during the week, although her primary car is a 2003 Mazda Protege5 that we bought new and now has 135K miles on it.

I just picked up a 2011 Scion Xb to keep the miles off the vette in the winter and to have another car with huge cargo capacity when I do video shoots.
It was inexpensive, reliable, and very roomy. The trifecta!
Now I just wish I had a garage.
Even if I'm not driving my Vette it's sitting in the elements.

It has 179k miles on it but it was all highway miles. It was a single owner vehicle and the guy that had it used it to commute to the business he owned. Anyways it was a 2hr commute round trip on a single highway so that's where all the mileage came from. The guy really took care of it that's for sure. I couldn't be happier with it.

Kia is great in the snow. Lincoln gets me by when I have a need for 4 doors and there is salt on the road. The Kia rides really rough so I don't drive it often. It is my wifes.

How much do you like the Buick? Like I posted the fiance really wants one but I refuse to trade in the SL550 for it. I said I would go for it if I could trade the vette in too and get a Z but we really don't feel like I would be gaining much since I'm going to SC the vette by summer and the Z has a fixed roof.

Great Daily Driver
C4 200k miles
C5 102k miles
Now a 2010 C6
All daily drivers in Washington DC traffic including the 270 split which is considered the worst in the country.
Also it is an MN6.
It is a fabulous daily driver and frankly driving it is my motivation to even go to work.

So you've made it through the snow DC gets fine? I am assuming some snow tires are on it.
