I did the reverse drive from Phoenix to Montana with an 05 Mustang with a previous girlfriend when her dad gave us that car. And from Montana to Phoenix when we moved here. It's a fun drive but the roads aren't always great and I think he's worried about getting some big rock chips, or just doesn't want to add to the O. |

Congrats with the car... and apparently the woman.

The wife tore me a new asshole on Friday night. Using such verbage as "what the **** is the point of us both working full-time if we just sit on our money?" And, "everyone I've talked to about this car says you are being a ****ing pussy." Also, "Man the **** up and let's do something fun."
There were more but I'll leave it at that. |

Well I've got another thing to ponder. More than a few people keep telling me not to drive this car as a daily driver. Can't say I wouldn't agree if money wasn't a concern. The upkeep and insurance of 3 cars doesn't sound super appealing. And we only have a 2 car garage, not that the Celica couldn't sit outside I suppose. But my Uncle, who's been an engineer for multiple car companies in Detroit for over 40 years said the same thing and called it a shame if this car is used for a daily driver. I say it's a car and should be driven but that doesn't seem to be the consensus.

I'd say exceptions might be... - if you go on frequent road trips during weekends or whatever and have a chance to enjoy it then... but, if you're not driving it daily and you're not driving it regularly on the weekends, WTF buy it? - if you have like a 50 mile commute... it would kind of be a shame to put that many miles on it so quickly. In that case I might consider only commuting a couple times a week. And to answer your question in the other thread, hell yes it's going to be my daily driver. I might buy a beater for bad weather days, but even the hail my car has been subjected to has popped back in hot weather, so I'm not terribly worried about it.
