Re: Who's older? You or your truck?
I've been 29 since 1984. Back then I was 16 years older than my truck, now the truck is 10 years older than me.

Re: Who's older? You or your truck?
I would like to say I'm older than my truck, but that's not the case. But, maybe thats a good thing cause I got the benefit of driving something none of my friends have, had, or were alive to remember(most of them). I'll be keeping the old Ford trucks alive for decades to come, Lord willing.

Re: Who's older? You or your truck?
I'm a Feb '71 model, I've got a March '72 F100 LWB and a May '69 Flareside. So, we're the same style but in about the same fair shape.

My f100 is a '71 model. The Ranchero is a '65 and the F150 was built October 2010 (still in diapers). I am a '62 model. The new one is the only one currently running:)
