Default What is your daily driver?

I'm renting a 2020 Camaro SS conv. My first modern sports car in quite some time. I think it has all the bells and whistles. The thing is a beast. Paddle shifters, tiptronic type, auto 10-speed trans. Awesome sound when it starts and you punch it. You have to be VERY quick to shift the trans. with the paddles or stick. Those first few gears makes it redline quickly. Four driving modes - tour, sport, track, something else that I forget. It is hard to see out of with the little windows. But, THAT MOTOR and trans!

Used to DD LilRed, but try to just do ‘pleasure drives’ now since it’s getting close to 170,000 miles.

2020 ram 1500 Limited. I actually really like it, for the first 10k miles its been to the dealer once for an oil change, a great change from the denali who had at least three warranty claims by this point.

2020 Ram 1500 Laramie. I’m loving this truck. Nicest truck interior I’ve ever been in in a truck.

The new RAM 1500 is an awesome truck. However, I have no regrets trading mine for the '20 Gladiator. The only regret I have with the Gladiator is that I didn't buy it instead of the RAM.

Alternate between the truck and the Coupe, sometimes the wife's MDX. The Z is for weekend fun.

I’m poor so my DD is a 97 Buick Riviera. It’s the supercharged model so I do have that going for me.
