As I look around on the road, I don't see many other manufacturers models being driven as daily drivers and still on the road 20 years later.
My Lotus are no longer daily driver because they are too expensive to drive. The PORSCHE is only used during the summer and when there is no probability of rain.

The G35 is another summer daily driver that is now put away for the winter.

That leave us with the soccer mom minivan which is used for trips in the summer and a daily driver throughout the winter. It is the most reliable car that I have owned. Just regular maintenance and gas fill up keep her purring along.

When we had the X we would rent a car for long trips instead of driving the X. With the price of using the cheapest gas in the rental car compare with using Premium in the X, the rental was just a wash. But the thought that if the rental broke down we would just call the rental company that their car broke down and can they send another car to us (Priceless).
