My dad got me my truck for Christmas and I drive it pretty much everyday. I'm going to buy some headers and maybe some other mods in Jefferson at the swap meet in a couple weeks and then I'm goin for duals. I still use it to drive to work and stuff though. I love it to death!

I typically do, but am in the stage of a transplant. Gas prices don't matter if you stay out of it and nothing beats driving something you know you can fix in under an hour with simple hand tools. I keep a couple of screw drivers and a double open-ended 9/16 and 1/2 wrench in the glove box, spare belts under the seat, and a couple of spares in the bed. A Chevy never dies, it just might need a rebuild.

I drive either my 1991 R3500 Crew or my 1987 R10 everyday.  The R10 is my main means of transportation.

Mine don't get driven but about once every 3 weeks.  I usually only clock around 1500 miles a year give or take.  It hurts to put gas in it when you have a company car with free gas.
