Default Ever feel bad driving your monte too much?

yes, a random question indeed. I feel bad driving it too much, such as just driving to work daily. I feel as though, wasting it, and not getting time away to actually enjoy it.Its kinda hard for me to explain, but hopefully you might understand.
cheers,
Paul

Hi `Paul,
I understand what you mean, but it is so difficult not to
enjoy the Monte Carlo Experience
When you own a Monte it makes it easier 2 get `up in the morning, cause you know that you get another chance to drive your Monte.
Plus, it makes it easier to go to work 2 pay for your Monte.
And then while you are @ work, you can look 4ward to
gett'in `off, so that you can drive it again : )
I've learned, if you love your Monte, your Monte will love you
back....4-Sure...Don't worry about the miles, just drive `it
and look 4ward to the days that you can drive it
wherever you want to `go.
Monte Carlo's adds beauty to our highways. Don't
hide it in a garage....Take it out on the Roads of N.E. Ohio,
and let other see it, and enjoy it also : )
Wish you Safe/Fun miles in your 04 Monte Carlo SS

I wish I didn't have to drive the Monte every day, but I got it as a DD and I use it as a DD. I don't regret any miles I've put on. I've enjoyed them all. A car is meant to be driven.

I have over 150K miles on mine and will be rebuilding the motor on it an hope to pun in another 150K. I love to drive my cars. My brother has a 65 Impala and it hates being parked cause it start to die. But once it hits the road, and keeps on there, it never has a single problem.

That's why I picked up a used 05 SS as my DD. I ordered my red 03 special order back in Oct 02 and drove it every day for 2.5 years. Then my fiance talked me into getting a winter beater so I could preserve my 03 (it has also been my show car since I got it). I've had a couple of nice DD and finally settled on the 05 this past Feb. I'm probably going to keep the 05 for awhile. But I love the idea that I can drive a Monte all year long.
