Every day - -- except in the worst weather, then I drive my beater 93' Explorer.

And on some Fridays I drive my motorcyle (it is dress down day so get to wear jeans in the office!)

Yep, except when there is heavy snow, then I make the hubby drive me to work and pick me up. I am not going to chance some punk overdriving the road conditions and hurting my baby!

Every day, for sure.

I drive in my work, so put a lot of miles on. I drove a 2003 F150 before this (Factory ordered the exact way I wanted it - still have it, still love it), but I put 78,000 miles on it in a little less than 3 years, and the 15mpg that I was getting was becoming painful.

I bought my 06 V6 the day after Christmas and turned over 18,000 miles yesterday. The worst tank of gas I have gotten is 24.3mpg, the best, 29.9 (got that twice!)

The only downside is that I didn't anticipate how much money I would spend on car washes.....
