What is your daily beater?

2008 GMC Sierra SLE w/ 5.3 - has 155k miles on her now

01Accord 4 banger with a stick. Runs like a clock and I'll roll it until the wheels fall off. Wife has a 2011 4runner. I'm still looking for a clean, all original fox coupe as a toy and future ride for my son.

2008.5 Mazda Mazdaspeed 3. It's my only car, but I beat the hell out of it. It's got a little body damage from where my dad backed into it, a few door dings, scratches on the back bumper from loading things into and out of it, a pretty good nick on the the front bumper, and one corner of the bumper just above the front passenger wheel is poking out a quarter inch or so because I hit a deer laying int he middle of 121.

Likes: Great fun, pretty quick (TURBO POWAH!), plenty of aftermarket parts, great room inside when the seats folded down (I fit two new, fully assembled toilets in the back, and one time put a 6 foot magnolia tree in it).

Dislikes: High repair costs, not really good on gas mileage (I get an average of 22-24 with 70% highway miles depending on how I drive it), but people say with a Cobb AP Tuner it gets around 26-28 average. Has tilt steering wheel but does not telescope, so if you're tall, like over 5' 10" (I'm short), you probably won't like it. Back seat room is non-existent, even with me driving it, short people have a problem with leg room.

Overall it's great for me, but I'm going to need something bigger pretty soon. I'm hoping the rumors about bringing the Mazdaspeed 6 back are true.

2000 Chevy Silverado LS 4x4 Extended Cab Z71

I figure it averages about 13 MPG or so.

It's been a good truck despite the trans going out, the O2 sensor issue that some shop wanted $2k+ to fix (LOL!!), and the heater and fuel gauge don't really work all that well

'13 Cummins

93 ford Taurus. 275k smokes a little from the cracked head but always gets there. I got a 08 Silverado last year to replace it but keep on driving the shitbox.

2005 2dr honda civic 5spd. 194k mi 32-35 mpg combined.

Engine was replaced 20k mi ago and the tranny, clutch was replaced last week so I should be good for at least another 100k miles.

The fuel guage in my 2000 gmc was quirky as well

Fuel pumps from around 98-03 GM trucks are huge pieces of crap. They've got one of the highest failure rates of any part I've ever seen.

LOL my 2001 fuel gauge is the same way, I just reset the trip odometer to keep track.

[SVT Lurch]

And for those of you that have a new Mustang GT or a GM product that trim level starts with a Z or ends in a V as a daily driver ..... well you can just suck it.

I liked my '05 Grand Prix, other than the fact that it was slow.

Eh my truck had 228k on the clock when it started. That and the power mirrors were the only issues it had. I couldn't complain
