My work car is a 2.5L 5cyl. VW Transporter. (with home made cold air induction ) The only other car I have is the 7 and that's driven almost every day as well. Never misses a beat.

OK, here’s mine.

85 GSL 13-B street port

75 RX-3 with SP goodies and small bumpers. 12-A stock but have a 87 turbo II bridge ported ready to go in.

99 Suburban 4X4

02 Silverado.

Too many option can be a head ache sometimes. Don’t know which one to use on a daily basis. But to make it fair to all my rides, I use which ever has the most gas. I fill them up every other week when i get paid. appx $100 all cars.

RARELY do i drive my dad's 87 rex with a built chevy 4.3 v6 (which i raced a fd in a couple weeks ago from a dead stop to 50mph and won) and sometimes my stepmom's mazda 626. we are a mazda family also, my dad has a 81 limited edition 924, but my sister has that right now because she has no other car.

edit: an imprezza would be perfect for winter..

I drive my Parents' '85 GSL when my '84 is down and it's raining. Otherwise, I'll drive the 1968 Pontiac Firebird convertible. The other Pontiac, the '68 Firebird Pro-Streeter is still "under construction" as it has been for the past decade...that'll be the weekend motorcycle slayer...

My other car is a bike

My daily ride is on a 1998 Suzuki Katana with a Holeshot Performance slip on and header, 5 degree ignition advancer, K&N filter and Factory Pro jet kit.

I got my 85 GS for winter driving It came with an extra set of studded tires/wheels. I'll just put about 20 gallons of water in the back for more traction and I'll do just fine. BTW, I traded it straight across for an old motorcycle of mine, an 89 KLR 650. So far I've had to drop money on the cat and carb kit, and its running like a champ.

Oh-yeah, I also have a 96 Isuzu Rodeo 4x4....130K miles and still runs like its brand new. My wife drives that during the day as needed (she works out of the home), and we take that for family driving and trips, towing the boat or tent trailer, or when I go hunting or skiing.

My daughter loves riding in the RX-7. She likes being able to sit up front.
