Mine's a daily driver. It's already seen all of the conditions you mentioned and performed like a champ!

Definitely my daily driver here.

I would actually like to keep my 2000 Escort and keep the GT garaged - that would be cool - but I can't afford the insurance for bOTH cars so.... bye bye Escort!

Good things is, come January, I am moving into a new place that is only 12 miles from my job - my commute right now is about 28 or so.

When I get mine it will be a daily driver.

I will be able to garage it, so that will help with keeping it sweet, at least!

I'll be driving mine in all conditions and anytime I feel like leaving the house. Which is usually pretty often. I don't buy a car just to keep it inside and look at it.

Mine will be used if the weather is not terrible for 30-45 mile commute (depending if I need to drop the wife at work).

Bronco for snow because I live in the country in PA.

Neon for bad rainstorms because wouldn't particularly care about the damage if it slid off the slick road into a tree.

Old Mustang for occasional nice weather weekend drive and shows.

New Mustang for most commutes and errands all the other times.
