Will your 2005 Mustang(GT) be a daily driver or a weekend getaway car?

- My answer is weekend warrior. :drive:

Daily driver, snow and all. Though I'll avoid taking too many long trips with it.

Daily Driver. Or maybe both in a way...Cause when I take it out on the weekends to show it off, I'll wash and wax the heck outta it. Haha. But generally my daily driver.


Sorry to ramble on but I have to publicly moarn...

BTW...I guess I'm stuck with my Jeep for now. Because my Cougar got totalled by my fiance. I really loved that car. It was in great shape, very low miles, a clean supercharged engine...Great interior and paint.... It's like I lost my best friend. I will miss you Cougar...You were great to me...We had some good times together...And you will never be forgotten.

I'm 28, married w/o children. The wife's '95 Escort is paid off -promised to my niece, the '00 TJ is paid off -will trade in for the GT, the '03 ION is now my wife's daily driver and the '03 TJ is my daily driver -a gift from my parents for moving them into my new home.

Aww. Thanks. I guess it's a good thing that's I'm getting a 05 Mustang or I'd be even sadder about it. She already knew I was getting a new Mustang, maybe she gave up on life? I dunno. ::sigh::

...I know I sound crazy. Oh well.

I agree with dcpirani, It would kill me to just let 300hp sit for days and whimper in the "stable." Hehe.

Yeah he's fine. Not a bruise or scratch...Thank God.

Probably doesn't care that he totalled my car either.

It's my daily driver, weekend special and winter beater. Cheaper and more fun than having three cars anyway.

Daily driver for me. If there is a really bad snow storm, I can just get a ride to work with a coworker. We have a good policy at work, if someone can't make it in due to the weather, they will pick you up in one of the 4wd company trucks.

Sorry to hear about the Cougar, Kellarina. It was a great looking car. Good to hear that nobody was hurt.



for now.

Really depends on if the wife let's me get another Mustang ...

What the heck am I talking about .... There will be a new Mustang/Cobra in the driveway that will be used as the occasional daily driver and weekend warrior.

Anyone know how to convert a 2 car garage into a 5 car garage ???
