my explorer is my only car and was wondering how meny of us use them every day.

 

[Goseba]

I use mine daily for work, 22 mile round trip and monthly 350 mile round trips to the parents. We also use it as the main family car for running around in, only using the the other halfs small Ford when we go shopping at weekends and know the car parks will be tight for parking.

Mine's my daily driver too

Yep me too! Swapped a silly Scooby Imprezza for the truck. And looks like we're adding to the family.. A dog, nothing else!! So it'll need a dog guard too now, for long walks around the Mendips...

Try and get an original ford one as they fit really nice. I sold mine as didn't need it. I think i got £14 for it on ebay but good luck finding that sort of price.


As for me drivin. Basically the ex is my DD but if i have to do a long trip and don't need to haul stuff or more than 1 other i take the mr2

With my lead right foot... That's just about down the shops and back for me!! ;-) Thank God for LPG, keeping me from GDP-levels of expenditure!

Do you know, I ALMOST got one of those when I got the Scooby.. £2k for a really tidy X-plate. Old landowner was upgrading... Glad I didn't now, even the Explorer isn't gonna cost that much to keep running!
