I live 7 mi. from work and it is a daily driver for me too. I even have a set of snow tires and wheels for the occasional white stuff we get here. The S02's are great in everything but snow. Mine is a lease and I'm keeping it at 1,000 mi./mo.

My S2000 is a daily driver. No reason for the S2000 not to be driven daily. I put on close to 25 miles a day just for driving to and from work. Could really asked for anything more.

The Nissan Frontier is one of the most unsafe vehicles. You might see it's great NHTSA crash test results, but have you heard about the IIHS crash tests? NHTSA tests are on seatbelt restraint. IIHS tests are on strength and stiffness of structure to see if it would crumble your body in a crash or not?

Well if you've ever seen me drive or heard about the way I drive you'd know that it isn't gonna matter what I'm driving if I get in a crash......Unless it's a Tank!!

But thanks for the disturbing info anyway...

Thanks! Might seem a little strange that I state I drive an old Vette every day. I'm new here and my SO will be getting an S2000 in the next couple months. She likes nice, clean-looking sporty/sports cars. I'm a car nut, so we get along well!

Me and my S2000 - sorta like the mailman. Through rain or sleet, or fog, or snow, hot or cold, we go.
