PREACH ON BROTHA!! and those that just keep her in the garage and driving a pos instead is like looking at your girlfriend then jerking off in the next room.. Oh well, to each his own.. I bang mine everyday.. The f and the wifey..

Everyone has a different thought process when it comes garaging or using the F as a daily. I've always believe that if your paying for something, you should get full use out of it. So I'm gonna drive mine until the wheels fall off, or get tired of it. It will never be a garage queen.

Daily mine here, until I finish my 1jz RX7 swap then she will get a little rest, but will never be a garage queen. Great analogy LOL......

That's probably the best analogy I've ever read. Well... I got nothing to add to the conversation other than I also daily mine.. not because I want to but because I sold my 05 corolla I had before this so it's my only car. The not so good mpg is definitely worth the fun factor of driving to work every day.

I brought my 2011 F in Nov of 2010, and DD it so far I've put 69k miles on with NO issue to date. Like others, I believe cars are ment to be driven. If my F were 1 of 100 yes then it might be garage it but it's not so I choose to DD. If i had GT3 RS I would DD that to. I wash and wax it weekly, I maintain my F like it were show cars, l also track it and drive it the way it's ment to be. I've had all sorts of adventures with all sorts cars vettes,mustangs, M3, Porsches, c63, M5, Camaros, and have great time with my F. Every day is new adventure never knowing what the next day brings.

This car rocks as a year-round daily.

...and a pic in the winter, just to make MWIS350 sad...
