For my winter and bad weather daily I drive my grandma's old 91 acclaim. Bought it new, got 67k on it and all it's ever needed other than scheduled maintenance was tires and an exhaust. The paint peeled off like many do, so I did a 2 day quickee 2 tone paint job. Not bad for free, and it has gotten 43 mpg at 70-75 mph down the parkway, and I get mid-high 20's in town.

In the summer if it isn't raining I drive the cutlass daily, and the wagon comes out on occasion too, but that one really hurts for daily use.
The wagon has gotten me a best of 12mpg highway. In town I average 3-4mpg :blam:
 
I split my time between a 1979 Dodge, a 1984 Dodge, and a 1998 Dodge, all 1/2 ton 4X4s, depending on what i happen to be doing that moment. The 79 is a farm truck and it shows! The 84 is is a nice older truck in really good shape that is treated more like a toy, with the lift and agressive tires. The 98 is my good one that gets used on longer trips
 
Marcar, I love that Acclaim...my parents had a powder blue one just like it when I was a kid. I cried when they traded it in.
 
I have an 06 Trailblazer SS AWD. Not really my everyday.. but I drive it 2-3 times a week.

Being that bad father that I am... I just realized I have no online pics of the TBSS.

Also have an 06 Charger.

This is my daily driver its a 2002 chevy 1500. I bought it in 06 it was stock with 52000 miles on it and now it has 130000 on it and i added a "moon visor" nerf bars, bed rug, a truxedo bed cover, stock chevy mud flaps (haha i liked them) a 6inch skyjacker lift 33inch tires 16x8inch rims (did have 35s with 16x10inch rims but they rubbed), a volant cold air intake, and dual exhaust. i put a new rear end in at about 80000 and i also put a new trans in it at 100000 miles and for some reason it took me 10 hours striaght to do it... i dont know why haha i had it on a lift and a really nice trans jack seems like it shouldnt have took so long. I drive it year round I average about 13mpg. In the summer I switch between that and my 442
