How many of you have a mopar of some sort that you daily drive?Most of my running vehicles are mopars so I can pick which one I want to drive that day.Granted they are not mopar muscle but still under fall under chrysler's umbrella. My running vehicles include a 1993 Dodge Dakota 5.2L v8 4wd with an autotragic,a 1994 Dodge Ram 2500 with the mighty CTD and a 5 speed and 4wd,a 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 2wd with a v6 and autotragic,a 2006 Dodge grand caravan with a 3.3, and finally my 1984 Nissan 300ZX turbo for when I get bored driving the others...
 
This is pretty much what I drive as my daily ride. I also have A 2014 Ram 1500

I USED to drive my Dart as a daily, but since I now drive at least 60-90 miles round trip on multiple days of the week I needed something more reliable. Bring in the 06 Charger RT, 5.7 Hemi and at 216k on the clock. Has needed a lot of work but a very comfy ride.

I had an old primer grey, 69 dart GT with a fiberglass 6 pack hood that was my daily driver for years. Winter, summer, fishing, hunting, it went everywhere. At the time it was all I had, on weekends id clean it up and drive it to the strip now and then, but mainly just put a hurting on high school kids with there mustangs. Several old REAL muscle cars felt the wrath too. Had a wore out junkyard 318/with 360 heads I home ported, old crane fireball lumpy cam, headers, a iron 340 intake and 3310 Holley. Backed by a 4speed in a Lakewood can and a Hayes clutch"leg killer" and a 3.91 sure grip. Too old now for that kind of abuse, so I just tool around in my 98 ram now
 

My daily, although I don't drive it everyday. My wife drives a 1974 Chrysler Newport, she likes a little metal between her and the everyday Morons! Jeff

I just drive the wife on her R/E work, and we take a pickup. but I have driven daily in years and decades past these: various dusters, dart sport, some early A bodies, one early B body, slants to 318's, 68-9 Roadrunners, super bees, 68 318 charger, even a #'s AAR few decades part, various others including one summer I drove a 327 67 Camero to the shop 25 mi every day. My Mopar buds laughed!!!!!
 
My winterbeater is an 08 awd charger
160k miles on it and never skipped a beat (though she is starting to use a little oil)
That car is a hauling fool, you wouldn't believe some of the stuff I've trailered with it
 
Mine might not quite be a daily driver but I do take it to work every week or two and out most weekends.
On the weekends once it is out it does everything, runs to the market etc.

The farm beater is a 2002 Pt Cruiser, but it twirly gets used recently, it doesn’t run well and the 4wheeler is much more convenient.

Then of course there’s my Duster, it needs front tires and an alignment so I don’t drive it very often recently but I have put a few thousand miles on it the past two years.
