Do you daily your EVO? Would you rather have another DD?

I daily drive mine 40+ miles a day....

I LOVE driving it... its a totally different experience then riding in any other vehicle...


And the Blue by You certainly attracts a LOT of attention... which could be used for both bad and good

I've DD'd mine for nearly 5 years, but lately have been dreaming of an a4/a6 avant for a DD. Won't pull the trigger until the Evo is paid and I can buy my next car with cash

I Daily Drive my Evo.. Nicely Modded. I have a long commute to work as well. I love the car but after a while I think i may get a daily other than the evo just so I don't beat on it anymore. I love driving the car so more to preserve it and enjoy it.

Drive it until the doors fall off. LOL
Seriously, this car is an all in one road entertainment system.
I drive it to work daily 22 miles roundtrip... Need more curvy roads to challenge the X a bit more.

22 miles roundtrip, that's not a commute

I do 65 and even that's not that much IMO

I DDed my Evo for about 2 years, but never during the winter. Now I have a BMW 335i as a daily, which I do drive in the winter. People often question my decision to drive a RWD car in the winter and garage the AWD car.

I DD mine, 120+ miles roundtrip to work everyday. But I do have an 04 Srt-4 waiting in the driveway should anything go wrong with the evo. And for the occasional drive I have a 70 Mach 1 Mustang.

I DD my evo averaging 50ish miles a day. Love it. No other car works in so many conditions, is relatively easy to fix, and has so much support (aftermarket and forum wise) as the evo. I bought it to drive it. And I make sure I do. I have zero interest in owning a car I have to baby.

My Evo has been my daily driver since I bought it new in November of 2005. It makes little things, like my morning drive to work, much more enjoyable and kinda gets me started off in a good mood. In thr last 6 months or so I have done a bunch of mods, and plan on doing a 2.3 l stroker in December. At this time I will probably also pick up another daily driver. Finances permitting, I would love a 3 series BMW for my daily commutes and road trips.

The only downside to dd the evo is mpg . My previous car was a honda 30+ mpg evo around 19mpg city.


Quick Reply: Do you daily your EVO? Would you rather have another DD?
