I don't drive mine daily. Actually i'm lucky if I drive it weekly.......and from November Until March it barely gets driven monthly. Dont get me wrong, I love driving it but I get paronoid to park it places. I feel that not driving it all the time makes me apprecaitemit more when I do drive it. It just sits in the garage.....



This is what I drive around in all the time......my go anywhere do anything with vehicle....

I daily drove my truck for nearly 10 years as it was my only form of transportation, until the trans blew and the truck sat for 18 months while I saved up for my FLT Level7 and Circle-D 258mm 2B Billet Multi-Disc. During that time I acquired my father's old 96 Chevy Blazer as a fill-in, and he decided that he didn't need it any more and gave it to me as a gift. Now the blazer and the Reaper split the daily driving duties, depending on which one isn't in pieces waiting for parts that day lol. Here's my truck, I'll try and get back with some pics of the Blazer once I get a chance to run it through the car wash





You can sorta see them both in this pic lol



*EDIT* It's crappy and rainy out, but I figured that I'd snap off a few quick pics of the Blazer anyway...

I put that dent on the L/F bumper last winter






Like my $20 Sun TachII from VatoZone LOL?


The Blazer is heavily modded, including a K&N FIPK (was on there when I got it), fog lights, and skull accents Oh yea, almost forgot the WalMart "Chevrolet" floor mats

I always drove my truck as a DD, but I don't know if I still will once I get it back on the road. I since bought another car to DD around because I needed something while my truck was on jack-stands. I did delete A/C and heater so I might turn it into a weekend stomper but something tells me I'll be driving it every day anyways. Only two things I can picture that would keep me from driving it daily, I get really tired of having no HVAC, and cops start pulling me over left and right because of the various things that aren't really up to snuff.

Your truck's too nice to daily, I'd just use it as a fun truck and take it to work on days when you don't need heat, and open the windows and let er spool when you need AC

Why would I take offense to that? Ford make a great product. I think they are IPCW I bought them on eBay 5 years ago haven't had a problem since. They are LED
