I'll Bite

My daily driver is my Miele S7, and when I want a change of pace, I take the Kirby Ultimate G Diamond Edition around. I mostly just use the others for playing around.

My daily drivers are either the Kirby G6 or Legend II, or sometimes I use the Hoover Commercial Convertible 344
 
Convertible, which just replaced my Windtunnel--for now anyw

All plastic, nothing too special, except the bag :)

Vita vac

Compact C-9 all original (thanks electroluxdude)
First Tristar
White Hoover Connie
Filter Queen Optima
Kirby Legend II
Royal tank (later model in blue with kenmore style power head)
Grandma's Electrolux L white with white power head
Oreck XL 8300 from the 80's
Sanitaire blue line
Vortec Force with newer style power head
oh and last but not least my Mom's dark blue Eureka powerteam canister that we picked out new in 1989.
I love all of them (some more than others) and could not decide which one to make the daily driver so when I am in the mood I use a different one everyday. However lately I have been so busy that I leave the same one out till the bag gets full. I just retired the Oreck today and replaced it with the Sanitaire. No offense to the little Oreck but now the Sanitaire is really going to kick ass.
 
mine are the Sebo X4 for carpets and the Miele S5281 Solution Hepa for wood floors, furniture, matresses and other above-floor cleaning. I also sometimes use Henry for above floor cleaning and hard floors if I fancy a change.
 
Mine...

Riccar N2000(quick-picker-upper)
Rainbow E2 Single Speed(for a detailed clean)
And once in a great while I will use the G4 and Central Vac

I change my daily vacuums often. Sometimes I'm in an Oreck mood and use that for 2 days, and sometimes I'm in a bag-in-the-back mood. Then maybe I'll use whatever vacuum with an empty bag and see up much dust I can pick up.
 
For me it's the Dyson DC 14, Kirby G 5, or Dirt Devil Broom Vac... those are the ones I use regularly.... but I probably use 5 different machines a week! The ones I use the least are the Kirby Heritage 2 and the Hoover Dialamatic...
 
Normally, I'd say my Lux Super J is my daily driver, but recently I've been using a Kenmore canister vacuum. I also discovered / rediscovered the power of the Dirt Devil 08100RT, which does not use the GS electric motor found in most versions. I always thought it was too loud, but I've been using it more in the past couple weeks.

Hopefully, starting in September, a blue Lux Model G will be my daily driver.
