My daily driver is my 58k mile c6 z51 m6......which I've owned since I bought it new on nov 2007..

Third vette and this really has been flawless.

Rain or snow or shine...the vette makes everyday fun.

With the family it's the AWD 304 fe2 cts. Nice car too

I love the Acadia. I've had 4 since it came out in 07. Getting ready to trade my wife's 12 Denali for a 13.

I went trough 3 Sierra HD trucks to get my Denali diesel. My first 11 Denali had the 6.0 and got a whopping 5 mpg pulling my enclosed trailer! My Denali diesel gets 15 pulling the same trailer and 25 mpg on flat land, no trailer of course.

I drive my 2011 Grand Sport every day.... Cost too much to let is sit in the garage.



It does not do well in heavy snow or ice though.

I have a leased c300 4Matic Benz. I need the AWD in the Winter. I am thinking of getting a Grand Cherokee when my Lease is up.

My DD vehicle is a black on black, 2011, LTZ Suburban. I am really impressed with it, and am very happy I made the decision to buy it. It's big to maneuver in tight lots, but that just means planning a route, and maybe not always parking near the building. I really like having the rear-view camera. (I also think the nav/radio is fairly decent, and it incorporates the rear view cam, so I really wonder why the same version is not in the 2011 GS vette???)

My former DD that I still keep for fun and knocking around is a '98 Isuzu Trooper Limited. I bought it new and it is now at 196k miles and running strong. it is the easiest to drive vehicle of them all. No planning needed, just go.

Both the SUV's are set up for towing and are 4x4's.

I would drive the GS more often than I do, but I have found it is constantly scraping its nose on driveway ramps and the ubiquitous speed bumps around here, so it is just not as versatile as the SUV's. Of course, I did not buy a vettte for versatility.

2005 Toyota Sequoia w/170K miles. No longer hauling kids & sports teams, but can't see trading for something else. Hoping to push 300K before I decide to move on.

Rotate all three cars (drive each one at least one day a week).

2013 Chevy Equinox LTZ (weather bad or need to run errands)
2011 Corvette GS Convertible (nice weather or club activities)
2008 Nissan 350Z Convertible (nice weather or CEO visits and need to hide the vette)
