Re: what is your daily driver vehicle
83 k5 with a 6.2L diesel. 4" lift, 3.42 gears, and 33's. 20mpg. When I get my 70 K10 done, It'll take over DD duty. It has a 6.5L diesel, and NV4500. My wife drives an 01 Durango thats going down hill fast. I just picked up a nice 70 GMC suburban for her. Its also getting a 6.5 and 5 speed. It'll be her DD along with the 64 Chevy II. I'm so done with newer vehicles. No style.

Re: what is your daily driver vehicle
My flame truck gets daily duty in nice (no snow) weather because I live about a mile from work and I dont like starting my diesel up for only a mile and shut it off. Besides with the price of diesel it cheaper to drive my bbc then it is to drive dmax...

Re: what is your daily driver vehicle
My '92 K3500 has been my work truck since new. Since I'm a contractor,that is my daily driver. But,my '85 Jimmy and '72 K2500 get driven to work when I can,spring through fall,to relieve the '92. If it wasn't for salty roads I'd only have old stuff...not that a 22 year old truck is very new. I'd like to find a lighter vehicle to bop around in

Re: what is your daily driver vehicle
2000 5.3L Z71 originally sold in September 1999. I'm actually the 4th owner. Owned it almost 9 years, bought it used with about 65K, has 151K now.

Re: what is your daily driver vehicle
Either my nissan maxima or the dually. The travelall gets it when its warm, the 59 gets ridden some, and the 55 collects dust in the garage.

Re: what is your daily driver vehicle
I drive a huge amount of miles daily (162) commuting to work.
Divvy up the daily duties between a 2008 Honda Ridgeline and a 2012 Scion XB.

Re: what is your daily driver vehicle
Here's mine... I only have to use 4 wheels when it's icy or snowing out. That only happens about two to three weeks a year. Then I drive my '67 LWB.
First for the rainy days, next for every other day 46k on the rain bike so far, and 45k on the glide. I'll put at least 100k on each before I decide to change.

Re: what is your daily driver vehicle
I guess this would qualify too since I drive this more than my GMC
