Default Car You Drive When You Don't/Can't Drive the Vette

Have always felt alittle guilty about my Black '02 Beast.....so I drive my wife's Honda Hybrid to feel better.

What do you drive when the Vette is snoozing?

The Vette is my only car, so I drive it rain or shine. If it would need to be in the shop for more than a day, then I would get a rental.

The other Vette If I need to haul something or it's raining...It's the Grand Cherokee. I only get to drive my wife's Honda when it needs washing.
