The Corvette is not my "daily driver." My wife has the SUV and I have my Mini S for errands. However, don't think my Corvette is a garage queen. I've owned it for ten months and it has over 11k miles on it, traveling through twelve States.

Only a couple weeks a year at most with that kind of weather in the pacific north west.

Nope it is my drive it when I feel like it. Have almost always had a car or bike in this class.

I love my truck. And the HEMI that's in it. (Should I supercharge it too?)
I also plan on adding a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon to the family, though I really don't have enough garage space....

Yes and I think I had it three days before I turned it into a work truck. It's a vert and the top is almost always down year round in LA.

1st Corvette was a DD, 2007 C6, owned roughly 2 years and put 32k miles on it (was a college student)
2nd Corvette was a DD for 2 years, 2009 C6, owned roughly 5 years and put 53k miles on it (was a college student for 2 of those years)
3rd Corvette is not a DD, 2015 C7, picked it up from the museum on 10/28/14 and is right under 6,700 miles… poor car

Yes they are my DDs.
The blue one is getting long in the tooth, however.

Same here. I drove my vette everyday for the first year and I racked up 13k miles. I have since gotten a hand me down SUV which serves as my flood car. The rain has been terrible here lately so it's pretty depressing to back out of my garage and say goodbye to my vette every morning.

2014 velocity yellow with z51 package. My honest daily driver. 20K miles this year. Only live 1/4 mile from work. What does that tell you? When the NH weather turns greasy or worse I walk to work. Bad weather the little woman chauffeurs me in her SUV. Nice gig. In the past year we drove the Vette to Petite LeMans, Sebring, Lime Rock, and spent the Night at the Corvette Museum watching the 24 Hours of LeMans. In between did a lot of grocery shopping, WalMart runs, Red Sox trips, and the weekly Ice Cream runs with the Lakes Region Corvette Club. Daily driver and more. Helps keep my M7 skills intact.
