Just curious, how many of you use the Z for your primary daily driver?

I drive it everyday to work. Though on bad winter days and serious grocery getting days, it stays at home.

I drive mine every day, 45 mile round trip for my commute. I thought about keeping my other car as a daily driver but after week I couldn't bring myself to not drive the Z06. And the worst winter days in Southern CA aren't bad at all!!

50KF,
I actualled had the TRIC installed at Halltech in Huntingbeach. Chris is the install tech and he did an awesome job. He was thorough and careful. Made cutting a hole in the shroud more bearable. And it only took 2 hours. As for the B&M, it came today and I'll install it this weekend.

My daily driver is a 2000 Cadillac DeVille, and I use the Vet for fun!

I have 2.5 mile commute and use the Z mostly there. I also have a 100 mile each way airport run that I use my wife's new sedan to absorb miles (about 3K every 2 months of airport trips) but I am having a hard time choosing a bicycle to go to work (like I used to) over the Z06.

I find that I'm driving the Z06 to work most days now. However in bad weather, I'll drive the Monte Carlo SS. It all depends on my mood.

1995 2WD Chevy S-10 for my daily driver.. Little rust, massive hail damage.. But who cares? Great little utility vehicle, drives like a car, pretty decent sized engine, and I could care less if someone opened their car door into the side of it. [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
