I drive like a grandpa. And honestly it's been bothering me. I baby all cars. Once I get my exhaust I will change that though, but still be gentle

If you drive low and slow, why not get a good sedan, it will be more comfortable and have better features.

Mine is a DD also, I live really close to work so my commute is a whopping 5 minutes.

Most of my miles are all for fun, I shift at 4k. I agree about the car wanting to be driven, she's meant for performance so take her out, open her up and enjoy!

I live about 25 minutes away from work, but it usually takes me about 10 minutes to get there.
