What are your guy's fleets? Right now I have my 1986 Camaro IROC Z. Owned since 2013 and have been a member here for a long time. Daily drove it until 2021 or so until I got a 2020 Hyundai Elantra. That started to get old and have problems. Didn't want two projects and didn't want to put money into a Hyundai. So I traded it for a 2025 Hyundai Elantra Sport. Nothing fancy but it's a low cost daily driver with low payments, cheap insurance and good gas. Let's me enjoy the Camaro on the weekend and week nights. Finally moving back north at the end of this year and will likely trade it for an AWD SUV (probably a cheap Kia or Hyundai). My Camaro may not look like much but she's got it where it counts. Hopefully when I move back up North and have land, I can finally paint her and do much needed body work. But for now, she's good enough. I keep her clean. Anyway, post your fleet.

That's funny, I have almost a perfect "mirror fleet" to yours. I have a 2025 Kia K4 and a 1989 Firebird (and a 1997 F-150). Pay no attention to the Firebird picture being from like... 2012 because it looked so much nicer back then...

Haha that is kind of funny. Almost did buy a K4. The same dealer had the Elantra very lightly used (I think test drive model) for cheap. So I stuck with the Elantra. Might go back and get a Seltos in a few months for the Northeast Winters. My third gen looked better in 2013. It runs better in 2026 though.
Re: Camaro and Daily Driver Thread (Post Your Fleet)
My fleet is rather large. I think it's upwards of 40 in total now. Chevrolets, several GMCs and a Pontiac. Camaros, Celebrities, Suburbans, Blazers, trucks, vans, some Impalas and a Chevelle. A Suburban and one van are an '00, plus a few '13 vans. Everything else is mid 90's or older.
Re: Camaro and Daily Driver Thread (Post Your Fleet)
My daily is the research and development platform for the car.
It started life as a high optioned '92 K2500 6 lug truck and now has L31 TPI power. Before I got it, it lived a hard life as a Cummins swapped work truck. My buddy bought it for the engine core and to see what all needed to be done to do the swap. I bought it from him as a roller and blended it with a '99 K1500 parts truck with the addition of several donations from various junkyard machines.
My car is temporarily down after racing it last year, fuel pump is struggling to achieve 36psi. I'm putting together a fuel and exhaust overhaul job but the truck needs a couple more jobs before I get back to the car.
Re: Camaro and Daily Driver Thread (Post Your Fleet)
My daily is a 2023 Colorado Trail Boss. I ordered it new and just passed 38k miles on it. My wife's daily driver is a 2007 M6 3LT Z51 Corvette. The IROC is the garage queen.

Thats a nice stable! How do you like the Colorado? From a looks point these look even better than the last generation Colorados. And I know the turbo 4 has more power than the 3.6, but I sure wish for a Ranger Raptor fighter that GM dropped the Caddy CT-4 Blackwing ttV6 in a ZR2 for an option. 472 hp would be amazing, a mini GM TRX. I still do really like the last generation ZR2 as well. Always said if I ever bought one I'dd be giving either Mallett or Lingenfelter a call for it.
Are you on the Colorado forums?

I like it a lot. I originally leased this truck but decided to buy out the lease because I liked the truck so much. My wife likes driving it a lot more than my 1500 ZR2 that I traded on it. I've had the typical problems like leaking upper radiator hose, broken cowl end cap clips and warped rotors but it has been a great truck otherwise. Plenty of power out of the 2.7T. I with they would offer a V8 in it though. I am on the Colorado forum, same username.

My hunch says that we are in the minority these days. Our fun stuff is old, our drivers are also old. Most folks likely have drivers that were built within the last 10 years.

A small sampling:
Now that is a nice fleet! I love all of the Chevys.

That's awesome! I almost brought a C1500 years ago but got a better deal on the Camaro.

Re: Camaro and Daily Driver Thread (Post Your Fleet)
Wow, y'all got some beautiful cars, and gorgeous scenery! Miss the mountains out west, appreciate seein that, Tom! I may be (relatively) young, but I 100% agree on you with avoiding newer cars... can't stand all the screens and gadgets they put in cars these days, just more expensive stuff to break. Plus, I gotta stare at screens all day at work anyways, don't need more of em on my drive home! Btw Vin, I'm in VA now, but I'm from Orange County originally. I could go for a Dodger Dog or 4 right about now
Not much of a fleet, and don't have pictures on hand at the moment, but I have my '92 3.1 Firebird that I've daily driven year round since highschool (2017), and more recently, a 2006 Subaru Legacy GT spec.B, #423! I got it in May of 2024, and of course the motor in it blew by November (900 miles after a new clutch). She finally got a new(er) motor in November of 2025, and I've been daily driving it for the past month or so while the Firebird has been down for some big projects. Nothing was wrong with the Firebird, just finally had the opportunity to really dig into a manual swap since I finally have a 2nd functioning car and some space Gotta say, an AWD turbo car with a stick is pretty fun, but I'm really looking forward to getting the Firebird back on the road, hopefully by this Sunday. Getting shaky from thirdgen withdrawals at this point

The original dark green from 69 would’ve been Fathom green and my dad actually owned a 69 SS that was Fathom green. This car was originally a seafrost or pea green color from the factory. The gentleman I purchased it from like 10 years ago purchased it in the mid 90s and had it painted. At that time 4th gen and C4 metallic polo green was the hot new green and I verified it when I had the cowl hood painted about 2 years ago.

Ok cool. I was mostly curious because the two colors look similar in the shade.
My first car (still have it) was a '69 Impala in Frost green. I've always intended to paint it Fathom green. 30 yeats later, it's still Frost green, lol.

Yeah the frost green is most likely the correct name that mine was stock. My green is pretty dark unless it’s really sunny out. Then it really shines. Did you share or could you share a picture of your Impala? I’m a fan anything GM

I didn't because I've got around 40 vehicles and didn't think people wanted me hogging up this thread, lol.
Here's some 90's photos of my '69, it's a 4-door hardtop:
And here's my '70 Custom Coupe, in Astro blue I think they called it:
Last year I also picked up a '70 Caprice big block car for parts, but may be a project car. It's wearing Fathom green paint.

I envy you for the number of cars you have. I can’t imagine the storage capacity you have or need for them.
But man I am digging that 1970 coupe. Not only for the blue but that stance in the grass like that is perfect. As you can see from 3 of my vehicles blue is a popular color choice. I was actually looking at a couple blue 1st gen’s before I purchased my 69. But mine kinda fit everything I was looking for and being a dark green like my dad had I thought was a good sign that I had to get it.
