The owner here at work took his all original 1987 F150 and equally old-ass trailer to pick up a very light item. The truck is 1 bazillion percent original and ultra mighty clean af. So badass! The car? Oh umm... it’s alight too I guess

Nope, 2,400. He has a 1992 Aston Martin Virage with 6 miles on it. Lol I just found the keys to it not too long ago. Also a pair of brand new, never used Sachs scooters and a Lotus Europa also just left from inventory just sitting there brand new.

You could probably put a bed cap over it to keep it dry too.

And a set of extra wheels and tires.

How do you not drive that truck more than 2,400 miles? That’s 29 miles a year. That’s amazing, and I want it.

Interior is even better. Time capsule status

He is an odd fellow. I mentioned to MontegoMan the other couple cars he has that he doesn’t drive as well

I saw that, and some of those make sense, but this is a pickup, a bare bones one by the look of it, one of the lesser desirable body styles Ford has made (but one of my favorites) and not one that is likely to ever be collectible. I’m not saying that he’s wrong for never driving it, I love that such a low mileage bricknose exists, I just can’t understand why, and it’s blowing my mind haha.

He’s got one of the cleanest Custom Deluxe Chevy’s as well

Also this rad old SAAB GL scca raod racer just sitting and rotting away.

That SAAB, and old SL, and an oooold tiny Abarth racecar are the only cars that he isn’t really taking care of

He also has an old Europa and a 1992 AM Virage with under 6.... six miles like five plus one equals six
