Vacation hauler, and occational truck duties. Otherwise it's parked. Can't take it to work easily because it's too big to park easily where I work. I love it when I get an opportunity to drive it.

97 4WD CC LB - I drive it every day to work (about 35 miles round trip); haul or pull anything I can hook up or throw on (10ft slide-in camper, 23 ft Bayliner boat, Massey 65D tractor, 16ft goat trailer - yeah, goats - another hobby). Carries my whole family in comfort and safety on road trips and vacations. Fun toy, affordable mileage. Looks GOOD, sounds good, IS good. A perfect vehicle. I don't know why I waited so long to get one.

I would have to say all 3. Use it for work through the week, shine her up and cruise on the weekends. Also bought a 22' camper trailer so she'll be used for that to. Kwik i could think of a million excuses to drive your truck #1 being because i just want to!!!!(haha)
