Evo your only car?

Is your Evo your only car? Vote/Explain

Mine is. I will be getting a daily driver pretty soon though. It will make modding/working on the Evo a lot easier.

There are 5 cars, and 2 bikes at my house. And only 3 drivers.

2007 Honda CBR RR(brothers)
2006 honda Civic EX(mom)
2005 Evo(mine)
2005 Yamaha R6(mine)
2002 S2000(brothers)
2002 Honda Civic DX(brothers)

My evo and the s2k get parked about xmas time, and come out the middle/end of march. They never see snow. I love my jetta.. its great.. 32mpg.. runs on ****.. you name it. I plan to move up to a civic or something for a beater here soon tho.

Daily driver for me. It's taken me on plenty of long road trips and always gotten me home. Bought in Nov 07 with 10k miles and now at 49k miles.

<--- see list.

The A8 is definitely the superior daily driver and frees up the Evo for weekend and track duty. Probably looking to ditch the A4 this year in favor of maybe a Z3...

80 miles a day minimum of driving and the Evo is my only car

If its a rainy night sometimes I leave it in the garage and take my moms Escape, but thats once in a blue moon.

I voted yes, even though I have an STi instead of Evo. Same deal though.

I wish I would've kept the Evo, it would've been way past paid off and fairly modded by now. And I'd have another car as either a DD or a fun car (S2000 comes to mind). Either that or a Civic Hatch or Teggy as a DD, probably.

DD the 98 S10 (cause my poor Evo is down atm), and my wife drives the 09 Pilot. Been debating picking up a Galant, like a VR4 or GSX as another DD (call me crazy) cause driving the truck everyday gets kind of old. Plus I'd rather not put as many miles on it since it is our all-around Home Depot grocery-getter, and it is a Chevy...

Funny someone on here has the same vehicles I do. My evo is my DD but it's currently broken (again) and I DD my 05 R6 DAILY. It's great riding in the rain while my 30k car sits in the garage....
