Only nice weather, If it is going to rain it stays in the garage covered up. Stored in the winter

Daily driver now- Will prolly change that when winter comes hopefully- When I don't drive it, I miss it though. Whenever I drive my gf's car I feel nauseated.

Primarily a weekend toy but I do drive it to work once a week. It replaced my previous weekend toy, a 1999 Miata, but I'm putting miles on the Crossfire at more than double the rate I did on the Miata. That ought to tell you something.

Mine is, and likely will be , my daily driver.
I don't seem to have trouble in the snow. Maybe it is the stick shift or the fact that I have driven rear wheel drive vehicles since I was 12. Don't ask how long ago that was.

I think it handles pretty good in snow and rain, so I'm out in it all year. It is all about handling momentum.

I like handling momentum through tight turns at high speed. The Xfire does that fairly well.

Yeah, my daily driver


roadster with a stick

I have my XF w/18K miles, a 2000 Ford Ranger w/300K miles, and a 2007 Chevy box truck w/1100 miles so of course you can guess what my daily driver is.

I do, however, like the ironic notion of slaying the Dragon in a box truck.
Just need to do a few mods first.
Think I'll start with switching rides . . . .
