My 2 cents
Although mine isn't a daily driver, I'd love it to be. But the parking lot at work is a hazard pit for dings and dents, and I already have to risk the rock chips... I trade the ol' Durango every Friday afternoon and spend the entire weekend in the SSR. It is so comfortable to sit in, I don't notice the miles clicking away.
One of my buddies is 65, and shaped like Santa Claus, and he loves going for rides. He says it's the most comfortable vehicle seat he's been in and he could sit for hours in it. I think he's hinting to go on more rides with me.
I like unique vehicles, and that was one of the main reasons I wanted this truck - there aren't a million of them out there and they are not run of the mill. Vettes are nice and fast, and I love speed too, but they're not unique anymore. Plus, they're not comfortable to get in and out of, even at my young 46 yrs! Virtually impossible, albeit entertaining, in a tight skirt and heels...
The SSR definitely gets attention - takes me an extra 10 minutes to get gas because people come up and want to look and talk. Get used to answering questions. And, you get the benefit of storage in the bed, conversion to a convertible at the touch of a button, like having 2 different cars for the price of one!
And the price has become very reasonable, as long as you shop around. I didn't look at these when they first came out because they were asking so much for them, but now, they are definitely very reasonably priced for such a special vehicle. Knowing it's rare, compared to the production masses out there, and having such a neat design - I jumped in on buying mine without a second thought and almost on gut impulse! And you know what? Absolutely, NO REGRETS! :seeya
