318 automatic, 3 speed, slant six, your perfect choice for a daily driver

I hate the Slant 6...bulletproof my butt I've blown 2 up in 3 years, and both had proper oil, oil pressure, and everything was taken care of...I babyed that thing and never got above 70mph cruising back and forth to school...but they blew like crazy.
now building a 450hp 360 with a 727 and 3.55 gears...that'll be the daily driver when done.
The best daily driver is a car that YOU enjoy driving and maintaining, whether its a pitful Slant 6, or a blown, nitro Hemi, if YOU enjoy driving it every day, its the best daily driver

That's true. I personally would rather sacrifice a little fuel economy to have more than enough power when "daily driving"; I get really pissed off driving an underpowered car around town, whether or not I'm getting 35 MPG.
