I drive the 67 GT that I call My Decoy regular and drive my GTS that I bought new when I want to play. The GTS is on the right in my avatar.
 
I drive mine all the time, but it's going to stay garaged during the winter. I didn't bring it all the way from California to beat it up with the salt here.

I'm seriously thinking of getting a local car, nothing special, to drive through the winter. I looked at a '73 Mustang Grande, 351C with recent paint. I'm going to make a lowball offer, and see what happens. Anyway, I won't feel to bad about watching a '73 Mustang weather away. Won't even need to worry about garage space (assuming it doesn't leak).
 
Drive mine all the time rain or shine can't afford to restore it at this time, when i can i'll rebuild it and drive it till the wheels fall off and restore it again thats if it don't out live me.
 
drive it!!!, friend of mine is the og owner of his 72 charger.... ive put more miles on it than he has in the last five years..... it sits in the garage and springs a leak, i drive it to my house fix it road test it then back to sit. i drive the joedart everywhere.
 
I normally have 6 or 7 vehicles but am down to 3 at the moment but will have 4 by end of September, I drive them all, I love cars
 
Once mine is done, I dont think it will ever touch a trailer ever again. It will probably get driven everyday. Im building it to drive it, not to sit around and enjoy looking at.
 
Never trailored 8) even when I we went after it "Small Block and the wife's over 350 miles and drive when I have to leave the house near and far rain or shine she :-D
 
I drive mine locally, even drove it into Chicago to Grand Spaulding one year. If I were to take it farther away than two hours I'd trailer it due to the gearing and the fact that I can't replace it (my GSS, the other two old ones haven't been on the road in years).
 
I drive it every chance I get. To Shows, Cruise Ins, and even when I have work that requires me to only carry some hand tools, then I cruise in the Duster!!! it was made to drive, not to sit on a trailer like these pussy's at car shows do with their "trophy" cars!!!! Screw them! Drive it!!!!!!!!
 
I don't own a trailer ;) My Duster gets driven everywhere. I'd like to drive it to Vegas for the MATS in March but it may get trailered depending on how reliable I feel it is then....
 
Nothing beats a good, long drive on gravel roads.........
 
the 64 savoy got trailered to the track and long distances but it has been sold I'm thinking of tagging my wife's dart to drive it.it just sets the convert.I'm putting together will be a driver...Artie
 
(I have only owned the car for three weeks,) 68 Dart with a non running /6, I am going to get the /6 running and run it until the V8 is ready to stick in it this winter. Come spring time it will be out two or three times a week to go to the store, ice.

I did not buy it to haul it around, I brought it so it could haul me around.
 
Good, honest dirt from about 2000 miles of driving in Alaska & the Yukon.
 
I drive mine every weekend, almost without fail. It's my errand car, for Home Depot, Advance Auto, etc., trips, and my Bride and I use it to go to dinner when the weather cooperates (no air conditioning in it yet).
I parked at Publix supermarket awile ago, got out and had a guy walk up and introduce himself as a Speed TV employee, complete with business card (yes, it was real), and go on to tell me how cool it was to see my car being driven and not cocooned in a garage somewhere. I told him it wasn't a Trailer Queen, and I did not buy it to look at it; I bought it to have fun with it, to include burning excess rubber off the back tires on occasion.
