my vette is currently on a train somewhere, but as soon as it arrives, it will be DDed. Corvettes and Los Angeles make the perfect daily combination

I daily drive my C7, but if it is snowing or in 20 degree weather I will grab my business owned Nissan Rogue.
In the rain if the C7 is clean I'll grab the Rogue also.
I live in PA and the winters do get COLD.
Only reason i won't drive the C7 in 20 degree temps is I don't want to damage my summer tires.

2015 base coupe 2LT 7MT - ordered intending to be my DD but keeping my 2007 Mustang GT 5MT (with AS tires) at least through this winter as an alternative. Once the Mustang goes, will probably drop my wife at work and use her 2012 Touareg TDI AWD on iffy days in the Nashville, TN area. There were a couple of days last winter when I chose to leave the Mustang at home, only one where I turned around and went back home due to ice.
