Default What is / are your "main rides"?

Curious to see what the main car is for those of us that do not use our vettes as daily drivers. I bought my Vette to use 3 or 4 months a year.

Mine is a 2013 RDX and 2005 Caravan

Dodge Ram truck, got rid of Jeep Grand Cherokee because of ongoing problems and very poor service work both warranty and customer pay. JEEP - just empty every pocket.

2018 Toyota Tacoma is my DD, and the hot young wife drives a 2017 Mustang GT. The Corvette is just one of many toys.

I don't have a daily driver. I split my week up between the Harley, the Ford pick-up and the Vette. Pretty soon I'll be retired though and then I'll have more choices.

2009 Chevy Cobalt SS is my daily. It's an outstanding car that I have had for over 7 years. Minimal maintenance required, runs low 13s and traps 109MPH with a non-aggressive tune, and I've run 5 different road courses with it. I also have a Ford F350 7.3 for pulling my 1999 BMW M3 track car.

Had a 2016 RAM Laramie. Hated to give that truck up (my 4th RAM) for the Vette, but had to as space is limited in my garage/driveway and I certainly don't need a truck where I live, or 2 vehicles to drive. The C6 is my daily driver but I don't drive it daily

2017 Cruze LT. Great car. Costs very little to operate. Way nicer that the first gen Cruze.

I've got a 04 Chev Duramax, '00 Trooper, '14 Accord, Ducati 939 SS, Moto Guzzi EV V11, Moto Guzzi V11 Sport, and Suzuki Bandit 1200.

My daily driver is the C6. But probably put more miles on my new Ducati over the last couple of months.

A '17 Tacoma. It's a 4-banger, slower than dog feces, and gets 1-2 mpg LESS than my Vette. But it does get around in the winter okay:

Commuting 80 miles r/t in So CA requires a motorcycle if you want to save a minimum of 2 hours a day therefore I ride a Harley Heritage M-TH and a Vulcan on Fridays. When it pours I'll drive the motorhome toad which is a HHR or my wife's Suburban.

4th gen Toyota 4Runner. Shitty on gas, but one of the best all around vehicles I've ever owned. Tows the race car, great daily, and decent for all the beautiful off-road trails we are blessed with in Southern California.
