Any One Here Daily Drive Their Fox ?

  • Sponsors (?)


I still see plenty of daily driven Foxes up here in the northeast. I pass by 2 on my commute to work. One guy was driving it right into the heart of winter as well.

I personally couldn't do it. I've gotten spoiled by the creature comforts of new daily driver's that are quite fast themselves, so I like when i can pop into the seat of my Fox every 7 months and take it for a 1 mile drive. :)
 
I drive mine daily for about 8 to 9 months out of the year. Less this year since we have the never ending winter.
I see a guy at a local trucking company that drives his dark green GT year round. Still in decent shape, considering.
 
summer daily/weekend driver,definitely enjoy driving it more summer evenings rather than then summer traffic though,331 stroker and heavy duty clutch dosnt help,but its fine to drive every day if i wanted too...

I drove mine right into the heart of winter :( you should see all the paint chips from the salt and rocks.
It needed a paint job before hand so it didn't really matter.
Wish I had a different daily driver for that, the fox was my only car.

Daily driving my fox is pretty fun, a stock run down AOD kinda ruins it though. I don't get that many looks but I did get a thumbs up from a guy in a SN95 :nice:. We both had our tops down on the interstate.
 
warm weather, sunny, top down... for sure!! DD ended around 01/02. nothing special to look at.... didnt want to kill her and my sedan with AOD is easier in traffic
 
I couldnt daily drive my 85 mustang gt 5 speed, the rich carb old car smell i hate so much, feel like im going to choke on carbon monoxide,
my truck gettind 13mpg on city atm, was thinking using the 88 for a little better on gas. I hate filling $70 a week lol. mabe the mustang will cut down to 30-40 a week.

fox body are rare on my area
 
I manage to get 16-18 city/back roads and 20-22 interstate. This is from an engine that is stock and tired. Gas for me is usually $25-$35 a week (about 160 miles). On average I fill up about 7-10 gallons. The low fuel light comes on when there is still 5 gallons in the tank :shrug:

Back incollege I DD a 90 lx 5.0 I had, and delivered pizza in it at night. Filled it up every other day. youshould have seen some of the looks I got with the sign on the car. The ricers in town hated me.
 
I daily drive my supercharged 89 GT 5speed. I bought it because that was my intent. I wanted something fun to drive. Been doing this for 2 years. I try not to drive in snow and wait until the salt/beet juice/whatever that chit is they put down now is gone. Midwest.
 
I used to daily drive mine year round for 2 years. It was relatively stock, all the way down to the stock catback. I stopped driving it years ago and it just sat. I bought me a 2011 Ford Taurus and now I'm spoiled by that because of its comforts (heated seats, leather, SYNC, bluetooth, etc)
