Bet you keep it in a garage?

Our cars and trucks have always been garaged when not used. Same for our machinery. It makes them last a lot longer.

Regular oil changes and proscribed maintenance also.

We have a carport that keeps the most of the weather off. It sat outside of the plant where I worked for years though before I retired three years ago. This was taken recently, in August this year, when I took my mountain bike to the woods to ride. Yes, I'm 63 years old but ride a 10 mile wooded trail regularly. :-) I was mostly taking a picture of the bike but you can still see the truck. This is an 18-year old truck. It has a few small dings and the hood is starting to need to be painted from all the years sitting in the hot TN sun while I worked, but it's in great shape for it's age.
