I don't currently own one right now but my signature has my wish list. I'm in the process of attempting a move to Florida providing I can line up a job with Broward County Sheriff's Office so even ordering the GT I want is on hold until I know for sure if I'm moving or not. If I end up staying in NY then it would be my year round other than work day car since I take mass transit. If I make it to Florida it would have to be my year round car! B)

Must be nice out!!!! I've got a beater for daily driving. Too many people talking on the phone while driving around here to risk getting it smashed.

She was going to be my daily driver. Then I ended up keeping my T-Bird. So I drive the mustang when the weather is nice. I have driven her in the snow and she is better than the T-Bird. But I would rather have the salt cakes on the T-Bird than the Mustang. So she sits under my car port during the snow. When the salt washes away, she will come out to play.

I drive it all year including in the darn 5" of snow we got hit with over the night. Glad I put snow tires on my baby!

I drive mine all year too. In Canada, Nova Scotia we get snow here. I put snow tires on mine and it handles well in the snow with no weight in the back...

I buying the car to drive it. I'm not afraid of a little salt. I'll probably end up putting 25K on it per year.

Year round for me. If it gets real ugly (snow or ice), then I will probably take my truck (81 F100 RWD) instead. But only because in case something DOES happen, there is much less chance of doing damage to the truck. Plus, I can repair or replace the truck REAL cheap compared to the car!

No bad weather driving here. Not only will my car look the same in 2015 as it does in 2005, but the way people drive here in NJ, I don't need someone sliding into me.

I plan to drive it everyday...when I order...after I get it.

Where I'm at in Texas, we only get one snow/ice day a year that affects the roads. I'll gladly take a day off to keep the car in good condition.
