Dave, mousehousemoparman isn't trying to be insulting. He was just adding a SpaceRider-style thread to contribute to conversation.
I added the poll at the top of the page. I had to trim down the descriptions of each choice though. It only allows 100 characters per choice.
I went with choice #4. It's my daily driver, and only car, for now. But hoping to make it a fair-weather only car eventually.

You are also correct. I intended no ill will toward anybody or any car including my own with this thread. Thanks for the clarification. Gregg

I wish I could vote twice, but I voted for the 05 with X amount of miles on it and I'm trading it in within the next 6-9 months for a newer Camaro RS 2LT.
The 03 is my baby and I will never get rid of it. It only has a little over 27,000 miles on it and (if I can help it) never sees rain.

Yes I am a Mopar guy asking this question. I am sorry if you are offended as it isn't my intent. The question can be asked of any make or model not specifically a Monte Carlo. I enjoy the dialog here on MCF and am added a thread for more dialog. The Monte Carlo has been around since 1969 as a 1970 model and continued until a few years ago with an interruption in between. Because of this long run there are Monte's out there that range from Junk to showroom stock new and customized show poodles. This question let's everybody know what everybody else has got. I'm not trying to slam anybodies car or the Monte Carlo itself. I think the Monte Carlo is a great car. My car was headed to the junk yard and I resurrected it from dead. I will most likely restore her to show condition. I don't see anything wrong with the question I posed. Gregg
I don't believe in calling anyone's personal possession a POS. One mans trash is another man's treasure.
I love all cars, any cars, anything is better than catching the bus or taking a taxi.
We are fortunate in America to be in the 5% of people in this world that even owns a car, POS or not.
Peace.

I was just joshin' also.
In haste, I forgot to mix in a smilee or two.
I didn't see the choice, "I am going to give it to my grand-daughter."
