Daily driver in the summer. Park it for the winter.

Too many nutballs who drive poorly in the winter around here.

Daily driver when I get it. My weekend driver is this car, it has seniority over the 05!

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

All day, all night, sun, rain, snow, sleet (well, not sleet) but you get the idea. I bought it to enjoy it all the time.

My intention is to drive it very rarely.
Driving season in Michigan is short.
My goal is less than 3k per summer.

I drive it when my wife lets me.
She drives it everyday no matter what the weather.

Looking nice Nick - in Houston you don't have to worry about much besides the rain.

Mine will be a daily driver as well B)

I'm not rich but having a beater is soooo nice for things like snow storms, trips to walmart (where the door dingers lurk) or trip to home depot when you wanna cram your car with junk that'll scratch your interior. That sorta thing.
My probe only cost 1200 and $30/month extra to insure....best automotive investement I ever made..

I'll be driving mine all summer long and parked in the winter,however I did buy it on the idea that if I had to I could run it in the winter seeing that the car is almost perfectly ballanced front/rear weight and would make for a good winter driver if I needed it.

Everyday, sun or snow it doesn't matter to me. I already slapped on some Michelin X-Ice tires cause snow is already flying around here.

adrenalin, let me know how those tires perform, I might grab a pair if the Pirellis don't work out so great.
