I drive a 2002 Silerado and my wife drives a 2003 Corvette coupe 6 speed. We also have a 2005 HD Deluxe. Don't ride it very much though. Bought it new and it only has about 15,000 miles on it.

This is my winter daily driver this year. It is a 2000 Buick Lesabre. I know winter has been too long and I desperately need spring because I am starting to like driving the Buick.

Fortunately Monday the roads were dry and I got my Corvette out for about 100 miles. Really puts the Buick back in perspective.

Seriously, how can you go from a Corvette to that?! I don't think I have ever seen anyone under the age of 60 driving a Buick. It looks like a church issued Pastor-mobile.

My current DD is this 2002 Acura TL Type S. I'm planning to retire it this summer and give it to my teenage daughter. It currently "only" has 196K miles on it. My last previous two Acuras each went over 250K as I drive mostly highway miles between cities on business, thus the 4-door sedan requirement.

Below are pics I took yesterday when washing/detailing it.





I'm currenty eyeballing the new Cadillac ATS for my next DD.

My DD is an AVIS rent-a-car, paid for by my clients. Being a travelling consultant has it's advantages.

Airport car is a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee, with 176K on the clock and peeling paint on the roof and hood. But I park it at the airport and never check for scratches when I return.
