Has anyone been driving the same truck longer than 36 years?

Re: Driving same power wagon 36 years
Dad bought mine new so it didn't always belong to me but I am quite certain I drove it the first day we brought it home, June 3, 1967. I put most of the miles on it the first month he had it since I had to report to Uncle Sam July 5th so had already quit my job.

I wish I could say yes..... but our Western New York DOT uses tons
of road salt each Winter. Most all Sweptlines rotted away 25 years
ago. I bought my first Sweptline 32 years ago though.....

I bought my 66 Dodge W100 in 1975 when it was a complete beater. Now restored and in my garage . Take it to shows and the odd summer drive.
