Good thread, Don. As soon as I gather all the pieces up and glue them back together, mine will be a "weekend driver" or more often.

For roughly 6 years straight mine was the only car I owned. Drove it everyday to high school, and a few years after that. It still is the only car I drive in the U.S. and I would be driving it here in Germany if I could have brought it with me.

Good thread, yes yes!!... Mine is not a daily driver, that would be impossible here, there are so many car stoles that you just cant let a car like this, parked everywhere.
I now have to do some mantenience and then i´m secret planning a road trip with my lady to explore our country a little better... after that, the car is gonna be a weekend car i suppose..

Hi Don,
In the summer I use mine almost as a daily driver. Almost means as often as possible, unless I know it's gonna rain heavily.
I drive it to work and to get groceries and even go on vacation with it.
I make about 6000-9000 miles a year (April - October) with it.
