    I would like to drive my 2009 SRT Challenger more often but I take a train to work every day. This makes it a weekend fun car. Also, I like to keep it in "car show" condition, so it is not driven in bad weather.

    How often do you guys drive your cars? Are they daily drivers?

    I never intended mine to be a daily driver but it's so much fun to drive that I end up driving it most of the time. I got rid of my old car. If it was convenient for me to take some sort of public transportation, I probably would.

    When the weather is nice and when practical, I ride my Harley, otherwise, the Challenger. I have only had the Challenger a couple of weeks and have already taken a couple of 300 mile round trips. The last car I had I put 10,000 miles on it in a two year period. I had averaged 800 - 1000 miles per month on the Harley. I will probably be putting more miles on the Challenger as it is so much fun to drive.

    Mine is a weekend driver. That is why I only have 11295 on her and she will be 3 years old on Nov. 20th.

    Mine is a daily driver. I have a Honda CBR as well. The bike has been neglected since i got the car. 2013 with about 18k miles on it. Bought it used, Put 7.5k miles on it in about 3 months. I did drive it to California. that was about 2.5k miles to Cali. Left her there and she is sitting in a garage for now. When i get back she will still be my daily.

    Daily.......it looks like it too.

    May not be pretty, but she still turns heads. Kind of like Diane Lane. You know she's older, shows some marks and wear......but damn if she isn't one sexy ass girl.

    I'm 34 BTW.....that's my sugar momma if I ever get fired by the wife.

    Have company car for work, pickup for bad weather, other than that I drive it any chance I get. Somewhere around 45,000 fun miles. Occasionally I drive it on the job, depends on where I am and what I'm doing. Always puts a smile on my face!
