Arrow Making the decision to park the Camaro

So I've had my car for less than a year and have 23,XXX miles on her already. My commute is 80 miles a day, and while my RS is GREAT as a daily driver, it's really running up the miles-- I also live down a two mile gravel road, and even with the splash guards, the bottom of the car looks like swiss cheese

So I finally made the decision to look into a daily driver that isn't the Camaro. I always swore I would never own a garage queen, and I do still plan on driving her on the days I stay at my parents' house in the city I work in, but I just think it's best for me to find something else to drive.

Attached is what I'm picking up today-- a 2000 Blazer. It was owned by a lady with no kids who took excellent care of it-- the interior is flawless and it has aftermarket sound, tinted windows, new brakes and tires, and is a V6 so it'll get decent gas mileage... and it has a bowtie Only paid $2,000 because the lady was desperate to sell so I feel like we got a heck of a deal!

Anyone else got one of these? Noticed anything worrisome?

Has anyone else made the decision to pick up a cheap daily driver so their Camaro doesn't get miled up too fast? I know I'm gonna miss driving my Camaro every day :(
