Any One Have a Daily Driver in New England

I was wondering how many people use their stangs as daily drivers in New England? I have an '07 GT/CS that I use daily in Connecticut (except really bad days). I do wash it at least 1-2 times per week as well. Since I just got it in December I have not had the chance to put on a great coat of wax, just a quicky one - better then none..However the '65 is a summer sunny day driver only....Thanks

Not me............ mine stays covered in the garage, but will come out to play if there has been no snow and the salt has been washed away. Have my Ranger for ddriver...........

have never taken any of my toys off the road- Stang, Turbo Buick, etc, want to be able to play with them whenever possible, especially with mild winters ( not this yearpparently ! ).

My pony stays in the barn while it's still salt and sand season. Dec-March anyway. Then I drive it as a daily.

Same here; daily driver only in good weather.
I do see a lot of V6'ers on the roads here in MA in the winter, though.
But hardly any GT's. Although there are at least 2 in the parking lot at my work every day so go figure?

Well I live right near ya "zoomerman" In South Windsor - I traded in my '00 Monte Carlo for an '07 GT/CS as my daily driver - except those really bad days (didn't have that many). It was nice today with the windows down cruising RT5.

Hi pilatti, Welcome to world of SN-197 Mustangs. a much improved step-up from the Monty for sure. If your into clubs and cruising check out Late Model Mustang Club
of CT. www.lmmc-ct.com . Great group of people.
What color is the car? Maybe we'll bump intoeach other this spring. I was wishing that I had the car out yesterday. Looks like a wash out for this weekend with all the rain coming in. Here a picture before i lowered the rear end with Rousch springs.

<============ Here is a pic of both my Stangs!! The '65 convertible only sees great sunny days it is Caspian Blue with White top & the '07 is Vista Blue - as close of a color to the Caspian. I have herd about the late model club and even been on their web site. Also ther is BOMC (blue oval mustang club) right in South Windsor. It is headed up by the guy that owns Ulitimate Edge Permormance on RT5 http://purewhp.invisionzone.com/index.php?act=home I met him by chance out to dinner & I guess they do Sunday cruises around New England

See ya around - town
