Considering most of us are over the hill or very near the top; how many of you are fair weather drivers any only take the Bullitt out on dry days?
I have 3 cars in storage and I cannot tell you the last time I got caught in the rain or drove on a wet road.
I have a daily driver pick up for that.

You bet! I use my Bullitt to transport me to the golf course and for weekend drives. When it rains I don’t golf or go on weekend drives with my Bullitt. My Lexus RC 350 is my rain car LOL.

The Bullitt isn't the daily driver, but likes the snow. My Austin Healey stays indoors when it's wet out; the damn Prince of Darkness shuts off the electrons if there is a cloud overhead.

ok good, I just needed a sanity check....
well wouldn't ya know it, I went to the local car meet and everything was fine.. Went home and about 3 hours later it started drizzling while taking it to storage. I guess it gives me a chance to use the new foam cannon and hopefully not again for a long time.

Wasn't purchased as such, but with work from home its turned out that way. Less than 2500 miles in a year, and only got caught once in the rain (the day I took it for first service!!).

Will probably buy a cheap golf GTI as a run around if and when I go back to office, keep the Bullitt as toy for weekends and car shows etc

I got caught in a thunderstorm once last year other than that it's a fair weather car.
It does get washed regularly weather it needs it or not, it's my way relaxing.

I only drive my Mustang if the skies are clear. My Focus ST can handle the rainy conditions much easier.

That is the intent once my Explorer gets back to TX from IA. Had to leave it there last week after discovering that the new Mach 1 sat so low I could not drive it up the drop ramps of a uhaul twin axle car trailer. :explode: Sh*t happens ................ :wink:
