    Haha! The ecoboost is pretty solid, especially with the 10 speed trans. And yea, totally opposite experience from driving the M3. The worse the road the better!

    Hell yeah! Performance Blue is the best color. I tried to make a deal on one just like yours but used prices have gotten out of hand on those Gen 2s. Pushed me over the edge to buy a new one. Btw, I am in Sugar Grove. Not too far away!

    Who makes those cabinets? The lighter colors as another member said look fantastic. So many garages are dark spaces and look fantastic. But there is nothing better than a well lit garage for working.
    Heavy-duty steel garage cabinets from Gladiator brand offer different sizes and configurations to suit your storage needs.

    MYLR was delivered 11/5, and I've put 700ish miles on it. Wife & I share it, but we both work from home.

    On the rare occasion we both are out and about, I have a '19 STI (forgive the shitty photos, best I have at hand) that used to be my daily pre-COVID. I think that's about to be replaced...I'll update once I have the new car

    Too lazy to post pics, but kind of on a whim got a 2007 Tacoma Xrunner with 39k miles off BAT about 2.5 years ago, Red over gray. For those unfamiliar, Toyota had no sports car then, their design point was to pull more g's than a Nissan 350z, and they achieved it. 4L v6 6MT. Lowered, bilsteins, extra frame bracing out of the factory. Not going to pull your hat off, but low end torque is pretty crazy, pulls from 1000 rpm! It is a hoot to drive. In mid to high speed curves, it predictably drifts all 4 wheels as you lose grip, versus the rear stepping out like you might expect. Understeers at tighter 20mph type curves but bushing are pretty rubbery and ... it is a truck end of day!

    My daily GX470. Originally wanted a 4runner 4th gen, but these GX470s were surprisingly cheaper for similar condition in my area. It now has a 2" lift and am looking for a daily for my daily due to MPG.

    Lots of wagons! 😍

    My daily driver duties are split between my M3 and a 2012 F150 Ecoboost that I ordered from the factory.

    My E46M is my daily in FL for just this reason. The other is a certified collectible. In MI is where I need the Allroad, although with no daily commute it’s becoming one to just keep and have fun with. I may throw some paint and wheels at it next year.
