Mine is mainly a weekend-use truck.  I have a long commute to work, so I use my Nissan rice-rocket for that.  I drive my truck every weekend (around town, parts hunting, Home Depot runs, hauling trips to the dump).  And taking the dog for a drive, of course!  :)

I used to drive my baby sparingly.  But on that fateful day, it came to a halt.  used to share wife's 2006 Focus with her when I didn't take my (always thirsty) baby out for a run around the block to keep her battery charged.  Sure gonna miss her, May she be resurrected to a new home.  1978 C10 Big10  100% rust free and totally stock Light blue/white.

I haven't driven mine in about 7 years.  Project is moving very slowly, has been a month of afternoons per year or so.  Hopefully that changes this year.

Right on! Same here!

For me I just pop in 5 bucks of gas when the meter gets a tad below full. She's never seen half/empty once I've started driving her. And yes mines a dd. But I don't drive alot since I'm in a small town/island. Most places I can just walk to. But I still drive my truck around town.. Mainly for showing off.  ;D

I drive mine daily to school and work, and on road trips too.  I just drove it around 2000 miles on a road trip 3 weeks ago.
