Alternate between the 2005s for DD during the summer, late April to end of October. Then they go into the garage or storage with just comprehensive coverage (about $60/each for 6 months).

Reverse the process for my 2003 Audi A6 2.7T MT6 quattro in which I rack up about 20k miles during the winter. The "silver tank" just turned 125k miles and is going strong.

 

My 04 Coupe is my daily driver, I am in Silicon Valley Ca. so weather is not an issue and it gets lots of looks!

 

Daily Driver, if I drive at all.

After 5 years of beating myself up with PS2's I have finally mounted some all season tires. What a difference. Must have been an idiot to subject myself to winter driving on PS2's. Still not great but at least I no longer feel like a portable speed bump.

If these all season tires degrade Scooter's performance too much in the summer I'll just get a new set of wheels and mount a set of PS2's for the summer. Starting to think that I should of just went straight to a set of Blizzaks for the winter and then got a set of PS2's for the summer. Would have been a good reason to get a new set of wheels and just use the scuffed up originals in the winter.

 

Both of mine are 'cept when the weather sucks.......like from mid-November to mid-April. The wife uses the Coupe, I take the SRT.
Seriously, I'll drive the SRT, when the roads are in some kinda shape, all winter long. Even though either car handles very well in the snow (when you can get it going!) I'm just not willing to risk getting whacked by some idiot driving sideways down the highway. That's what the wintermobile is for.
55 miles one way every day...............

 

OMG, my sweet Xfire is the only car that I`ve ever had ( it my first vehicle....). I have been dreaming about him since 2005. It`s my daily driver, because I`m not able to leave him in garage alone during my tours.

 

Mine is my DD. currently I am in Oregon and I have to drive in wet crappy weather most of the time. In a few weeks I am moving to sunny Arizona. I cannot wait to tear through Arizona with my windows down

 

Mine is a DD when I'm home. Right now my buddy is driving it once a month. With the Traction Control I don't think it would be that bad in the winter and I'm from Northern IL.

 

Wow I'm surprised at how many are daily drives, mine is weekend only, in winter its pretty much off the road.

 

Crossfire lady welcome to the forum..

 

I commute 70 miles RT daily and enjoy every minute of it....can't wait to get in and drive. I have two 70# bags of sand in the trunk which makes me feel better but honestly, does any car, RWD or FWD move well on ice? Doubt it!

My insurance agent explained that if I kept my Grand Cherokee and did the storage insurance thing in the winter with the Crossfire, that the issue was if I took it out and drove it ONE day, it negated the coverage. Since I have a soft top, I live for the days to get it out and drive w/top down. Not going to let that chance get away and with these climate conditions who knows what day next week that might happen!

The work car is an Intrepid. It enjoys the public parking lots and subsequent golf ball doors. Next is the Crossfire. Not every day but more than weekends. Then the 300C which I use when 2 cars go to work and to go to fancy places.

Hey, Hi, Hello
It`s nice to see that I`m not an only person who love Xfire :]

 

You may find a few here...

 

I can see :]
Am I the youngest here??

 

No there's one member who is 16 I cant remember his screen name.

 

She's my primary car. I am retired, so often she sits a day or two w/o being driven at all. Saves on gas My husband's primary is a Ford Explorer. When we go anywhere together, we take the Crossfire and he drives.

Anyone notice how low the passenger seat is? I need a booster seat when riding in the passenger seat . We seldom go anywhere together - can't stand the passenger seat..ha ha ha ha.

 

That's so true about the passenger seat. I'm very comfortable in the drivers seat, but I just can seem to get comfortable when ever I'm in the passenger seat.

 

Daily driver.....

Currently in the middle of her 3rd Michigan winter. I've never been stuck where I couldn't get moving again.
