What is your "daily driver" vehicle?
- Thread starter Thunderscreech
- Start date
My "daily" car is a 2003 Saturn ION. It has 59,000 miles on it. My "fun" car is a 2006 Pontiac Solstice with 43.000 miles.
2010 Ford Fusion SEL.
Nice car and even nicer b/c it's my company car (i.e. FREE!) After having it for 6 months, I understand why Motor Trend named it 2010 Car of The Year -- it is a very nice car! Ford got this puppy right.

There's still a bit of blood left on the fender. I didn't bother washing it off. Battle scars. Strikes fear in the heart of frat duechbags everywhere.

Joe, your story reminds me of a college story my dad told me. One night he and some friends decided to take all the small imported cars (MG midgets, Mini coopers. these were the original '60s minis which were TINY) and fit them in the lobby of the library. it worked, but they couldn't get the 6th one in. They got some of the frat animals who were pledging to help them wedge the 6th one in there. When it was discovered that morning, one of the frat boys told the mantainence guys how to get it out, and he got busted and couldn't tell on anyone due to his frat pledge.
I feel bad as I have done nothing epic.
What happened to your Grand Wagoneer?! I always enjoyed your pictures of that thing. They are BEASTS!
I'm in an '08 F-150 King Ranch Supercrew. 5.4L, 2wd. No pictures of mine, but looks just like this one, minus side steps and 4x4 decal:

My daily driver...
I wish. Actually, my daily driver is a 01 GMC Sierra, but I hope to get some miles on the GTO this summer.

That would be 2 years ago now at Sunday Niagara at Dunn Tire Raceway Park in Lancaster, NY. 1/8th mile strip. I dont remember many of my times off the top of my head, but that summer it was running high 10's with a carbed 302 in it, but then I put an EFI truck 351w in it, and it was consistantly running near 11.35 at ~60. Torquey engine and likes to spin the right rear, but loses all power above 4k. Looking for a cam or intake of some sort in the near future before I get a tuner for the ECU.
but it's currently slightly on hold due to college tuition and smaller racecars that I got sucked into.
I'm looking at taking it to Milan a few times this summer to see what it does on the 1/4.
I was on the right track. That model of Escort was when Ford try to do a "world car," and if I remember correctly, both the European and American versions were designed by Ghia in Italy. Of course NHTSA got in the way and the two had to be changed somewhat but they otherwise stayed the same.
