Default How many of you actually drive?

I frequent a few car sites, this being one of them obviously, and most of the people think they know about cars b/c they read car magazines. In fact most of them don't even drive, they're all like 13. I do not have that much driving experience (about a year) and I'm learning bit by bit what the test drivers have been saying. So the question is do you drive on a daily, or near daily basis?

go to the what you drive ride section and check the car registry, I think you'll get your answer pretty quick as to how many of us drive.

I drive everyday, I have to just to get around in the city busses suck and light rail is a piece of crap. If I didnt drive everyday I'd probably go insane pretty quick.

Drove almost everday after I got my license at 17. Back then I drive almost whenever I had the chance (ie. go out get milk...get mail....get laid...) Now due to the high oil prices, age, traffic everywhere, I drive only when necessary.

I also drive pretty much everyday, and have done for the last 4yrs or so.
If I go into the city I usually take the ferry since its cheaper and less of a hassle, but for anything else I go by car.
