Re: Who belongs to Double D club?

I daily my syclone, drive it 5 days a week. Use it as a real truck too, moving my welder, random pieces of wood, and a pallet jack this week alone. It doesn't have a/c and it's been 100* here lately.
Word.

My Typhoon is loaded down with 10 bags of Seminole Leisure Horse Feed right now. Fastest farm truck we have. :tup:

Re: Who belongs to Double D club?

For the past year or so I've been DD'ing my Sy. I sold my beater DD last year and havent been able to get a new vehicle to replace it yet. Hopefully that will happen soon. I love driving the Sy but hate having to put the miles on it (about 300 miles a week). Although it's been rather reliable, it is starting to develop minor issues (such as the wipers coming on when I use the turn signal).

I drive mine every chance I get. I drive it to work, to walmart and to Roswell with the wife and baby when we have to do some serious shopping. Right now she is up in the air on the stands waiting for t-case planetary from cobra. The joys of owning a typhoon...

Daily driven when weather permits. (Fine print: Only in good weather, no rain or over cast weather, never been in snow or salt.) However, it always starts and would drive anyware... as long as it doesnt put on too many miles. Goal lately is to keep it under 40K as long as I can. Not a trailer queen but I treat her like one. :tup:

I bought a tahoe to give the ty a rest.....but since there is sooo much dumb drivers around here I rather have my girl use the tahoe (more safe) and we sold her car and now after only 1 week from resting, the Ty is back as MY dd, but now im more careful with it, no more WOT every single hour.

The shop truck gets driven 5-6 days a week, and gets used as a pick up too. Hauling parts and what not around. We try to keep it clean and keep modding and testing stuff on it in the mean time. We'll have more details on it and pics soon.

Re: Who belongs to Double D club?

Currently, my Ty is a DD. I have owned it since O7 and have put 10K miles on her. The only reason she's a DD is because I sold my F250 V10 and I'm currently in the process of finding a nice used diesel truck.

I hate driving my Ty Every day, I hate putting the miles on her:( But passing the slow-folks is fun:D

Re: Who belongs to Double D club?

I drive a different vehicle each day, thus the Syclone gets operated once every 10-14 days, however over the past month, Sy 411 has been driven close to daily just b/c of the fun factor.

The beast only comes out on spectacular days which occur here about once every 4-6 months. If tempted in the meantime, he comes out to bite and then returns to his resting locale :).

The Aspen Ty will soon be keeping him company. Hope to fire it up next weekend :thumbsup:......can hardly wait.

Re: Who belongs to Double D club?

Just bought mine about a month ago so its been a daily driver so I get to understand it better. Restoration project and listing out priority on what gets fixed then knocking it out. Fortunately gets from point A to B.

I alternate between the Ty and the Explorer 300 miles every other week. The Ty still looks really bad from the outside, but from the inside, I can't tell.

Barely drive mine. Could go out right now, start it, and drive wherever I want. Very reliable, but we have 4 vehicles. Silverado, Passat, Pathfinder and the Typhoon. They all serve a purpose, just not much free time right now. Next time out will be for NASTE meet at Frank's, maybe...Jim

Re: Who belongs to Double D club?

Ive been looking to join this DD club with another syty . There are a couple good options on the market right now , and a couple bad options too .lol .

I hate driving the expedition as mpg's suck and because its a FORD . If low mpg's are going to be dealt with , at least it will be something cool to drive . The search continues ....

Re: Who belongs to Double D club?

Sy605 is driven daily about 15 miles. Sold my daily driver and hope to get the LS1 GN buttoned up so the Sy can get some upgrades this winter.

:tup: to those who use their trucks for trucks.

I haul my mountainbikes and kayaks around with mine.
