It will be my son's wheels at college, hopefully starting next week if the train would hurry up.

Yup 120 miles daily for me. The Tercel can do the I5 experience it gets 40 mpg. If it gets hit nobody cares. It's desposable. The SS is for sunny days and the weekend. Road trips to fun places. The Coast perhaps!

With the mpg's this thing gets it would make for an excellent DD. Can't say that for most cars with a V8 sitting up front. Kudos to GM on thinking of the common mans needs as well as his wants.

I don't see any reason that the SS could not be used as a daily driver. It is a car like any other. The only exception would be if you lived in an area that gets heavy snow however rear wheel drive cars have been driven in those conditions for decades. I will be driving mine 40 miles each way as I did with my 04 GTO.

Who are you people with your 2 or 3 days a week jobs still being able to afford a Camaro?
I have the wrong job... Fire fighters or something with that 24 on 48 off? and weekends only for me... unless I just have that itch during the week...
