Re: How old were you when your truck was new?

Our first truck (a 68 GMC 910) was built the year I was, but Dad didn't buy it until 1971, and believe it or not, I went with him to pick it up and remember part of the trip!

Re: How old were you when your truck was new?

....11 years old when my truck ('72) was new. Even as a kid tho'...I liked the look of that egg crate grill...and the GMC's of course.
