Post your Daily Driver
Mine looks exactly like this, but oxidized and with TX plates. Gets 32mpg no matter how I drive, allows me to jam it into tiny parking spots when other drivers have parked like asshats.

2012 Escape Limited AWD. Love this damn thing. Gets through snow no problem and its comfortable as all hell. Heated leather seats, sunroof, ice cold a/c. No complaints!

I'd post my car but I'd be lying since I only drive it ~ once every two weeks. I drive this nearly every day. Bought it when I was 14. Left it at my parents when I went to college and they returned it to me a few years ago.

It is seasonal. From mid April to first snow it is the Miata. Rest of the time it's my truck. This is the day I bought it, 3 years ago:
Grill has been changed, lightbar added, LED offroad lights installed. Can't find a pic with the lights at the moment. Must be on my thumb drive, which is at work.

No picture of mine (no energy), but imagine silver wheels and dirtier.
42mpg average as DD. 27mpg while towing the Miata with "only" 800lbs overweight on the hitch, only 55mph though.
1.6L diesel with 90hp can do more than it looks on paper.

Some great dailys in here. Some are funny, like Vlad, who has two sports cars as his daily and his 5-door hatchback as a weekend special. 
My daily changes constantly due to work. Currently repairing a wrecked 2004 S2000 for my daily. My wife's car and our road trip car is a 2004 VW Jetta TDI w/5-speed, leather, sunroof, etc.
In beast towing mode (towed that Volvo, packed full of stuff, from Ann Arbor Michigan to Salt Lake City. Still got 27+ MPG.
In trials bike hauling mode (the original reason for installing the hitch)
And in tight parallel parking spot mode:
Love this car, just wish it was a wagon. 165k miles, just barely replaced the original brake pads and rotors. Still on original clutch and it hardly feels worn. The car has held up tremendously well.
