My daily driver is a Ford F350 Roush Super Duty. Can’t beat the 8 foot bed!

I had to cut down my Lada to save weight on my daily commute.

No such thing as a daily driver for me, I just rotate among them. Here are a few of them…

P.S. I also thought the Taycan was boring...fast and capable, but boring.
My other half drives an Envision Avenir and really likes it. It seems largely overlooked in today's market but has technology matching a full lux brand (adaptive headlights, HUD, animated lighting, etc) at fraction of the cost. If you squint really hard from some angles it has a whiff of Macan too.

I like it a lot. I really missed the manual though and added a manual GT3 to scratch that itch.

It’s more dramatic and playful than the Porsche GT cars. It’s also a little better on longer road trips. I have about 200 miles to get to the good roads like the tail of the dragon, Wolf pen, red mountain, etc. The Italia has made that trip more times just because it’s a better GT car.

The 911’s get driven to work and around town a lot more, mostly because they fly under the radar a little better than the Ferrari.

Current daily for quite some while is the Audi RS6, and likely will continue to be even after receiving my Targa 4GTS in the fall:

Car in video is mine. Decided to wrap in XPEL Stealth.

Awesome, thanks for the insights.
