It's not my daily but, as much as I find excuses to drive, it almost is. My work is only 15 to 20 min away (about 15 miles) and I've only driven it there twice in the month and a half I've had it.

Round trip is 40 miles for me. I drive it to work 5 days a week and whenever I need to or want to drive on the weekends. 17.5k miles on a MY17.

I buy a car to drive, not to sell. Using that rationale you could save even more by not buying it in the first place. Me? I drive mine every day. Unless I'm driving a different car or motorcycle. 6,200 miles so far this year & looking forward to putting on many more. |

Its my daily driver, 20-25 miles, 35 mins to 2 hours each way depending on traffic. Fast moving or bumper to bumper, I love this car. Couple of more weeks and the bike rack goes on

My M2 is my DD during the non-winter months (Volvo during winter). Round trip to work is about 80km (50 mi).
Winters in Nova Scotia are really icy, and they put a lot of brine (salt) on the roads that I do not want sprayed all over the bottom of my car. Also, even with winter tires the driving dynamic would not be there and I would be constantly worried about the other guy (or girl) sliding into me. I also travel for work a lot, so have only put 10,000 km (6000 mi) on it in 18 months. But when I am home and it is not winter, you can't keep me out of my M2! |

Yup my M2 is a daily, although it is for sale and I want to get rid off it. Seems to be really hard!

Besides, it's not really me I worry about; it's the other asshats on the road. That and the road salt and other shit that's everywhere during the winter. My daily commute is about 60 miles round trip FWIW. |

Secondary work vehicle for my landscaping business. When our truck breaks down, we load the M2 up with tools, mowers, trimmers, ladders, etc. Only way I could work out to get it was with a tax write-off. So we made due...
Just kidding. Mine is my DD. I have it fully covered in Xpel to protect it. I work from home though and don't ever "need" to go anywhere. I park it on the side of the street in my city too. No garage. |

I DD mine even in the winter. About 20km round trip to work and back. I have about 10K km (6K miles) on it after 10 months.
