I have a 2003 Dodge Crew Car Cummins and a 2004 turbo PT Cruiser, drive them both equally just depends on my mood.

The trucks gets 21mpg empty on the road and 15 mpg towing a 28 foot trailer with a 1958 Pontiac it it and the Cruiser is just plain fun to drive....Quickly!

Mine is a 2002 F350 CC LB Lariat 4x4 7.3 Power Stroke. 130,000 miles on the clock. 4" exhaust, DP Tuner (60hp econo,60hp tow, 140hp race) CAI, boost fooler, foil delete, fuel bowl mods and some other things. It gets about 22mpg and will haul or tow anything I can hook to it.

I just bought the wife a 2012 Edge Sport with the 3.7 305hp V6 AWD. Pretty sweet ride and thanks to Jesse Kershaw for hooking me up with a Ford Racing "R" plan for a nice discount. I'm really wanting to put a tuner on this and a ProCharger or something but the wife isn't having it LOL.

All Fords here except the wifes old car which is a 97 Pontiac GTP 3.8 SuperCharged with exhaust and a smaller pulley. Don't have pics of it.

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

The future of high performance street cars. Cool little car and I'm sure a lot of fun.

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

I sort of have my choice between beauty, brute and brutus.

Beauty is a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee, white gold, 5.7 hemi. This is the wife's ride, so I get to use it only under special conditions.

Brute is a 2007 Jeep SRT 6.1 hemi. Who cares about the oxymoron, fuel economy. It's fun to drive.

Brutus is a 2003 Dodge 3500 Quad cab dually. It pulls the trailer in grand style with the Banks six gun. That's about 400 hp and 800 ft-lbs of torque.

I spend most of time in this baby. 400,000 on it now.

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

2004 Corvette which I'm going to put a converter in this winter and run IHRA Pure Stock with next year.

2006 Chrysler 300C SRT8 6.1 420hp (wife's car) although it sits in the garage covered up next to the C5 and rarely gets driven anymore.

2001 GMC SLE Sierra 4.8L 2WD.

She drives the truck daily and I carpool with a buddy and pay for the gas in his 35+mpg Hyundai (MUCH cheaper than paying for gas and driving anything that we own). We plan to tow with the Sierra next year as well.

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

these are my daily drivers, other then the freightliner. the 93 Nissan 300zx has 38,000 original miles, but since i got it i have drove the wheels off it. anyway, i am currently replacing the water pump. (not so easy a job on this nightmare) while i was at it i decided to fix the bumper too. (from the curb incident the first time the wife drove it). i use the van a lot also. just wanted you to see the sticker in the rear window.lol

Original 316 and Hydro

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

Mark, do you know anyone who still does "converters" for Dualrange Hydros?
I'm building a 324 Olds for my '49 Ford and want to keep the Hydro.

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

Tom, I haven't researched any of that stuff yet.
Mine works okay for now.
If the Hydro craps out , I'll probably change the engine to a 400 anyway..
Can't bolt a 350 C or 200 4 R to the early engine.. I'm sure I can build one of those for a lot less than than the Hydramatic.
After you get used to the modern transmissions , the old ones aren't that much fun..in my opinion.

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

My daily driver is a 2001 Monte carloe with 145000 miles. Gets 29 miles to galon on highway. I put 60000 on a year.

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

I'll take your challenge. The truck I got off craigslist for $300.00, had to fix some minor problems before it would run, minimal rust. The cougar I got from another racer as a parts car for $200.00 & drove it out from under a tree,LOTS of rust. Has run 13.80's.

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

2007 GMC Duramax-Allison 2500 HD 4x4 pickup....

Hauls my trailer....like it's not there...
Carrys my Lance Camper...with my trailer out back...like they are not there...
Gets 20 MPG on the highway if I drive mellow....and am not towing...
and will definately go thru any snow we might get

and since work is only 7 miles away who cares what the mileage is....

and is Victory Red.....the same Color as Jack Matyas and Reggie Jacksons COPO Camaros.....LOL

PS....Reggie is the one who paid $140 grand last week for one from what I read on this site.....So I don't know if that is true.....or not...You know how the internet is!!!

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

Now Rich, you know they can't post anything untrue on the internet.....lol

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

98 Mirage with a 1.5/5speed, 4dr, maroon with peeling clear coat
and assorted dings and dents
still gets great mileage
I put real tall tires on the front, so i can run fast on the highway, without spinning the motor too much.
I have been able to slip the clutch for a year now, but if I go easy its fine.
It doesn't make enough power to burn it up!
It may be up for sale soon:)

Re: Your Daily Driver
 

This has been my "toy" since Feb. 2004,, first new vehicle I'd ever bought. It pulls my 24ft.Wells Cargo with my '68 Chevy II just fine. 21 mpg when I'm nice to it,, and I can still play with some of the younger guys going to work and back, some times.
