Is your 40th a daily driver?

nogoodfella · 05-25-2010, 01:40 PM

Got the car on the 20th and I still have 18 miles on her. 2009 Xterra SE is my daily commuter. The highways here are littered with pebbles from all of the highway construction. I have to install clear bra first before breaking her in properly.

These are my semi-daily drivers (about 50% each).

Great vehicles! Nothing wrong with sharing the love.

yes, but only 6 months of the year, and never if ANY salt on the roads is a risk! I won't pull her out till mid to late april next year! and sometime in november this year she can go away so no Z Nov-April approx.

I drive my Z Monday-Friday (and atleast 1 a month Sat and Sun too). I put about 100 miles on the car a day

...that's all I can do since this is my only car. Thinking of purchasing an old truck or something so i can use but it does look that good with financial right now!!

Daily driver here...about 35 miles a day so it's not too bad

ktbaker · 06-26-2010, 02:43 PM

Daily driver. Short drive to work and so much fun to drive.

^^congrats!! enjoy her!

Only 9 miles 1 way to work and 20 miles one way to church on Sunday. At least 80% of that is on the highway. Too much fun not to drive everyday! We also have a 4 wheel drive Pathfinder if needed for winter driving.

Just picked mine up on July 31st, originally with 11 miles, but I drove it off the lot with 25 - they had to drive it in from another dealer; both other 40th's drove off without me in the prior two weeks.

That car will be a DD - 26 miles round trip. I need to find some good back roads to drive...

I bought my July 24th and have already put almost 500 miles on the car

It is my daily driver, but that much mileage isn't normal for me. I had to drive 2 hours away for a wedding. My work commute is only 6 miles, but I have to go home for lunch to let my dogs out. So I probably average 15 miles a day.
