What Would Make Your Daily Driver More Fun To Drive?

That's a tough one.  My daily is a 2010 Honda Accord EXL which I drive whenever I have class after work as I really don't want to park the Charger in the campus parking lot, those numbnuts can't park to save their lives.

So I drive the Charger to work and everywhere else on Tuesday, Friday, and the weekend.  The only non fun thing when I go back to the Accord is that it doesn't have that low end torque making it much more tricky to pass cars safely on the country roads here.  Funny thing is, I bought the 4 banger instead of the V6 because I really did not have a need for the latter but once I had the Charger and the 440 that changed.  I still don't need a V6 but it would be a bit more fun.   :icon_smile_big:

Then again the 4 banger will need less maintenance, has better mpg and with near 200 hp is still peppy enough.  I'm not sure what else I would want to make that car more fun, it has all I want and more.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

You know, a chauffeur isn't a bad idea. :scratchchin:    You could arrive at your destination more rested and stress free.  My problem is being able to afford both a wife and the chauffeur company you so wisely recommend there.


Once your wife gets used to being driven around she'll go along with it & not worry about the expense.  :lol:

My daily driver is fun enough by itself. It's all the other f**kheads on the roads around here that make it miserable.   :icon_smile_big:

Fixing the leaking,howling sunroof on my 97 Monte should be a priority but I never seem to get to it. 100000 less miles on odo would be nice, love the 27 MPG after getting 15 in my 97 F-150.

My daily driver is my old Ram 1500. Not a lot that can make that fun unless NASA plans to sell a couple of the solid rocket boosters from the retired Shuttle fleet really cheap.

Mine is pretty damn fun. It's my 2005 Dodge Magnum R/T. 5.7L HEMI, cold air intake, Predator tuner, SRT8 exhaust w/ resonators deleted, SRT8 wheels, NAV, sunroof, heated seats, power everything, 6 CD changer, BOSE audio system.....it's super fun. It's about 400hp and 410 ft lbs of torque right now.



Although I do REALLY want a SRT8 6 speed Challenger.... :icon_smile_big:

A bed-mounted rocket launcher and a cattle catcher on the front would be perfect for when I'm stuck in traffic.    Kind of like Airwolf but shaped like an F150.
