How often do you drive your mustang???

[Dope 97GT]

I drive mine like 3 times a week just to cruise around in. I am 20 and usually have something for the winter and a truck and then my mustang. My mustang goes into storage for the winter but not this one because Im selling it hopefully this week.

I am forced to drive it right now because my saturn is down and my truck is off the road for the summer so I am not happy about that

I drive mine daily. But I try to split up the miles between "it" and my cougar.

It's just a fun car to drive, and I dont beat it bad, I know how to have fun with it without hurting it, and so, I put around 200 miles/week on it. I guess that is kinda alot, but probably less than that now, i've been driving my Cougar alot more since I fixed it up and got it lookin nice, and reliable.

For the first 3 yrs of ownership, I drove it everyday and gave it ALOT of TLC. Year 4 & 5 were strictly show and pleasure use and the miles stayed low. After my DD Ranger tranny blew, I had to go back to driving it at most 5 days a week, not many miles though. Right now the GT is 7+ years old and has only about 64,000 miles. I should be getting the DD fixed soon and the GT goes back to pleasure use only.

I drive mine as my primary daily driver, but if it rains (usually only if it hails) I'll garage it and drive the Accord. The Mustang is such a great daily driver, especially with the blower, coilovers, and IRS

For the first 2 summers it was my daily summer driver do to insurance,that last 2 years it has become an occassional driver.I maybe drive it 3 to 4 hours out of the week.

Daily Driver for me...6 days a week minimum. I'm turning 20 (tomorrow btw) so i can't afford a beater. I bought it on Sept. 11th 2004 and it has 17000 miles on the odo. . It should have less like maybe 16000 cuz i didnt fix the speedo for a while becuase of the 4.10s.

I really need to buy a real cheap DD tho, but parking is a bia in my neighborhood

 

[DropTopPony]

I drive mine every day.




are you going with a 302BB set up at this time? Or will that be a project for the future? I think I remember you saying you'd like to go big bore at some point. That should be a fairly nasty ride!

i scrapped the big bore on this car, the guys who build them are very busy plus the added cost wouldn't benefit my car that much. I am currently looking around for a cheap 96 coupe for my next project. I was gonna build a 4V drag car but now i'm thinking 2V NA screamer with 302 BB Flat tops and SVO heads/intake...but we'll see because i change my mind as much as i do my socks which is sometimes twice a day.

Mine is my daily driver, but not for long!

 

[Stangsgrl]

DD but sometimes wish it wasn't for the mileage. It racks up miles driving to work 4 days/week even.


I think though if i had just a beater, I wouldn't want to drive it really. I'll have to pay her off then buy another car that's also fun to drive. Also we have no more room in our driveway for a 5th vehicle.

 

[DBMSTNG]

31,000 miles in 7 years. i only drive it now during nice days.

 

[GoofNOff]

Mine is mostly a weekend driver now. I used to have an SHO for DD duty but I spent more time working on it than driving so I traded it in on an Escape and the Stang can finally take an extended break since it was new in 96.

 

[WillDuhhBeast]

Every day.


42 miles round trip per day.

 

[Mustang5L5]

Every day, even in the winter/snow.

Funny thing is when i go to local car cruises or whatever, my car is cleaner and in better condition that some of the cars used on the weekends only

 

[04DarkShadowGT]

I drive mine probably once a week. Maybe once every week and a half. I just hit 40,000 miles, I know that's pretty low but I layed off driving it for a while, so I've been driving my Saturn, and my grandma's yellow convertible beetle..haha, that thing is fun.

Stop driving your grandmas beetle. 1. Its a beetle, 2. Its yellow, 3. Its a beetle.

 

[danny04GT]

I drive mine everyday. I have two other cars, but if I leave the car at home i'm afraid the kids might scratch it getting their bikes out of the garage, or worse.... the wife might drive it!

 

[ponyX2]

3 days a week to give my poor truck a rest

 

[Cantslowdown]

Mines a DD drive it every where..

 

[RED2001GT]

I own a 2002 V6 Mustang that I purchased brand new which I drive all the time, but I haven't put too many miles on it. It only has 34,900 miles on it.

I also own a 2001 Mustang GT that I purchased brand new which has less than 2,500 original miles on it.

 

[Unbrdld07]

My days off, weather permitting, or if it needs a wash I'll drive it in the rain, then wash and put it back under cover. It's a bit** to have to spend your days off washing 2 cars.

 

[Susky]

When it's warm or not particularly rainy, mine is my daily driver. When the weather gets cold, I'll switch to my CRV. There are times during the winter, though, when the roads are clear and relatively salt-free, so I take it out for a stretch.
