    Thats the best story on a vehicle ever. Bought a truck for $75 to use for work, retired from work and sold it back to the grandson for $75. Thats awesome

    That is a heart warming story that the grandson got the truck back that doesn’t happen very often

    What a great story! In 1960, my parents bought a new Chevy pickup, and Dad drove it until my brother needed a vehicle. He drove it until I needed a vehicle in 1970 (what added personality to the truck is when a drunk hit it and push it into our back yard - never did get it repaired). I drove it until my brother again needed a vehicle and he drove it for years until it finally just gave out. To this day I still wish I still had that pickup!

    I'm sure he had a lot of offers on that old Chevy over the years but he waited for the right buyer

    Cool story! I had a 1956 Ford F100 that I bought in 1981 for $1,350. It was my first set of wheels and I was 15 at the time. I totally regretted selling it in the early 90’s. I miss that truck 😢

    That was a good story. I smiled the whole way, thinking of my grandpa and the truck he gave me.
    Its long gone as i sold it to the junkyard 25+ years ago. I wish I hadn't. To drive it and think of riding with my grandpa in it

    That's awesome to have driven the truck so long, then sold it back to the original family. Hope the old Chevrolet drives for decades to come.

    Perhaps one day it will be passed on to yet another generation. I’d suggest the price stay $75. with the condition no subwoofers with thumping base be added 👍🏼🇺🇸
