How about DAILY?

Computed or assessed for each day: a daily record.
Everyday: casual clothes only for daily use.

You know, I'm beginning to think that Chad likes getting 0wned on this board as much as he does on the race track!

"daily driver" means driven daily.
"street legal" means legal for streets and sometimes driven for transportation.

Yup same here. Don't have the $$$ to have all these cars.

Daily driven should be just that. Driven to and from work, to the mall, the gas station, have the headaches that everyone else has with driving a car. Not a trailer queen.

here's my daily driver



I only drive my civic at the autox now. Kinda a pain to have to still pay insurance for a car I never drive. It's actually a real pain in the *** to drive on the street. LOUD, BUMPY, and RATTLES

I had asked Jedd if he was coming to CMP, but he said he couldn't make it. I even tried to encourage Beth to attend.

As for daily drivers, my CRX race car is now licensed, inspected, and insured, but I haven't been driving it to work just yet (need more practice with getting over the door bar). However, I _do_ drive a CRX to work every day. None would be considered driven *daily* since I currently have 4 CRXs licensed.
