I enjoy driving the car too much to not have it as a DD.

I always like having a 2nd car around...even if everything is perfect with the Evo. In my case...I just hate having to put boring commute miles on the Evo. It also makes me appreciate it more when I hop into it outside of the freeway grind.

Had 181K on my 92' GSX before it got retired (from my ownership, at least)... Hoping to do the same with the Evo.

Great stuff! Keep it going!

For the most part, it is about the gas milage, i drive 186 miles to and from work a day. I would like to get something that does in the up 30's or 40 instead of the 26-28 i get now.
