How about daily driver cars

Let me start it off. Here I am with my daily driver '05 SRT4 in Orange blast. My dad's daily driver is the Yellow '03, incidentally his plate reads "OLD-FAT" the "kids" who want one envy the "old-fat" with the SRT4.

The following is a picture from last year, I now am 65 pounds lighter.

Nice looking daily drivers. So ... do you and pops ever go at it on the roadways? :grin:

Not yet, but there always is tomorrow... :)

I dont actually have a pic of my daily driver which is an 89 Dodge pick up in ok shape. But I thought you might like to see the yellow 03 SRT-4 my youngest son used to have. We did a few mods and had it running 12.80's @ 108 before it got totaled by a truck. Now my youngest who is now 20 is serving in the US Navy ! Ron

WOW 12.80's, do you know what kind of mods?

Damn 12.80s is mighty fast in an SRT-4! I'd be curious to hear what you guys did to it. I hope the crash was when it was parked.

I was pretty close to buying an SRT4 and kinda wish I did. Instead I bought a 04 Hemi Ram.

I have an '04 HEMI Ram

Nice SRT's and congrads on droping some weight. It aint easy.

We actually did all the mods so lets see if this old man can remember. The best mod was the manual boost controller. It was a simple one that after I ran the wastegate hoses in the car it used a turn valve so we could turn the boost up but we had to learn where to set it as not to go to high. I believe it had the Stage I PCM on it when we raced it and we added a 3" downpipe. Also used 15" PTC Cruiser wheels and BFG drag radials. But you still had to work it out of the gate as it had the stock open diff and would still spin if we brought it out to high. I really feel with a better tire to hook better I could have coaxed maybe 12.50's out of it. :yes: He had more plans for it but it got hit while he was parked on the side of the road by a tractor trailer. The driver fell asleep as my son was sitting in the drivers seat and you can see by the pic he is one lucky young man to walk away unscratched but very sore and shaken up. They actually flew him to the hospital as his neck hurt very bad and the paramedic's thought he may have broken it. When we saw to the car my wife went nuts until she knew he was ok. Ron

Lol....both useful...but hardly interchangeable

my mint boat. I drive it unless I have to commute 50 mi a day then its my '88 honda 31 mpg.

Thanks, it's not easy like you said, but I have a long way to go. Slowly but surely!

Ron, I'm just really glad your son made out OK, imagine sitting innocently on the side of the road and this...glad he is allright.

Remind me never to ask you for a ride..LOL!

LOL! It's tight back there too.

Well here is my "curent" daily driver... it changes rather quickly.. ha ha.... 2008 Dodge Avenger 4 banger.... 36 mpg...

I knew your response was either going to be, " I guess so or hell no!" I was just teasing but got a good chuckle from your reply. We'll just leave it as "Onebad".

Really.:yes:

I spent 8 years in Okinawa...had my fair share of R31 Skylines (3 of 'em) and a S13 180SX. Also had the pleasure of driving a couple of 600+ HP R32 GTRs.:D

Chris, I don't remember seeing that picture before. Is that a before or after shot. I'm sure that you know what I'm talking about. Seeing that car makes me wish I didn't sell the '67 Valiant I had. But then I wouldn't have what I do now.

Here is a shot that shows all three of our daily drivers. Wow... They are getting long in the tooth. The van is a 94 and is really nice shape. We mainly use it for trips to the store and to get up to our place in Wisconsin Dells.
The bike is usually my ride to work. I go 25 miles round trip on it.

A good 20'er gets me where I need to go:cheers2:

I was running a 1986 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme for 10 years. I put a mild 350, 2004R, and a 3.73 posi in it along with Hotchkis rear suspension, and HD front sway bar...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v249/BlueSS454/P5111556.jpg

I had to take the Cutlass off the road because of a couple reasons, most I don't want to get into now, but mostly, it needed new exhaust, and floor pans put in it and I don't have the time right now to do it so I just parked it for the time being. Now I'm using my 2004 2500 HD Diesel for my everyday vehicle...

360/727 Hurst Dart Sport.......Not bad mileage either.........and no stinking computers.

........and to keep feelin' young, it beats the tar out of vitamins. :banana:
