Gee, thanks for that friendly reminder....

36

 

The good news is the older I get .....the better I was!

 

25.... I get carded for booze but the strangest thing happened a few weekends ago.... I got carded to buy the Ron White-They Call me Tater Salad DVD.. what is that all about...

 

Im old enough to remember back when diesels were started with either compressed air or a small gasoline engine and real trucks were chain drive!
Yes sir, back in the day all trucks were.... uh, back in the day, real trucks were.... uh, um... what was I talking about again?



Rich

 

Thanks... It really makes me feel old to me in the next to the last (or close to death) catagory!!! Who thought up these ages? How about a geezer line to make most of us feel a little better??

Geez, I am only two months away from the GEEZER status

 

I'm way deep into the geezer status (56).

Rusty

 

I are a Geezer. It beats the alternative! Another birthday next week - another reason to celebrate - just what I need - another reason!

53 going on.......what did Jerry R say?

 

Are we suppose to count the "Fuzzy" years too? ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, you know,,,,,,,, like the 60's,,,, 70's,,,,,,, and 80's,,,,,,,,,,,,

 

Body=65, mind is somewhere between 16 and 45, DL says 32.

 

I dunno, it just popped into my mind. I live in a college town, and I usually see good-n-modded trucks being driven by young'ins, like me. I was just curious to see how old other CTD owners who have, or plan to, mods on their rigs. I know when I'm in the average "age" of the poll's results, I plan on having the fastest CTD around.

The age bracket 33-48 seems to be the most popular, and thats when most men settle down and have a famly, house, and what not. But yet, looking at sigs, it seems that they have the most fun w/ their rigs also!!

 

I may grow old.. but I REFUSE to grow up! 52 and counting

 

Let’s consider your age to begin with—how old are you?” asked the White Queen.
“I’m seven and a half exactly,” said Alice.

“You needn’t say ‘exactly’,” the Queen remarked: “I can believe it without that. Now I’ll give you something to believe. I’m just one hundred and one, five months and a day.”

“I can’t believe that!” said Alice.
