I use mine as a daily driver but that is only because I cannot bring my self to drive any thing else. I love the car so much, I can't stay out of it. I hate like hell putting the miles on it. I just can't help it. By far the most fun car to drive. I have a 91 s-10 truck and a 78 CJ-7 jeep. My jeep has been lifted, has a 383 stroker motor in it (Chevy), and TSL Boggers so it tears the mud up. BUT still does not compare to the FD!!! Once winter come though its back to the ol' s-10. I'm not about to subject my baby to the salt and sand in Kansas.

I've put over 40k miles on my R1 in a little less than 3 yrs.
Water pump needed replacement, and with the small exception of a new motor, it's been extremely reliable
.
Seriously, the motor went due to bad coolant seals, but has been bulletproof otherwise...3 crosscountry trips and over 60 passes at the strip.
