I like to drive my Evo as a dd. I bought the car to driver afterall.

But I do have a 94 accord that I drive here and there, and when I was trying to sell the evo I was driving the accord as well. I may also bring the accord on long trips for gas millage reasons. Although recently I found if I stay out of boost and cruise between 65 and 70 Ill get 28-30mpg's

Look at a honda though. There some decent deals out there for 8k and those cars are almost maintenance free and last forever, also great mpg.

I DD an 03 Altima 3.5se with a six speed HLSD maxima swap. I/H/E Nismo cams, Lightweight flywheel stage two clutch. Runs 13.2's at 106 on all seasons haha. Not the Best daily anymore but I drive it everyday. You could pick one up used for 8,000 or under easily. Im never getting rid of it though.

I DD my Evo, used to have an older chevy truck but that got totalled by a friend. So now I'm down to the one car, not the best gas mileage, but definitely makes driving it every day fun

I drive this everyday. It's an auto and i kind of like that. Plus I got it super cheap and the A/C is ice cold. The gas mileage is not great though, like 22-23mpg.

`91 Eagle Talon, but it's got no radio, and doesn't really get good mileage either

A 27-year-old motorcycle that I picked up a few years ago for $300. I replaced the tires and brakes, and changed all the fluids and filters, making it about a $450 bike.

I added an old amp I had sitting around to drive the speakers it already had, so I can listen to my ipod while riding. It gets over 45mpg on hot days, can easily carry two people and still keep up with my friend's 750 Seca.

Ridden in everything from sunny and HOT to pouring rain and high winds to 28* and starting to ice up.
