The trucks are aging better than the people. ;-)

Re: 30 years in Business-And we're still using these trucks!
That's great to see. It's less like working when you have that dash and view over the hood in front of you looking out that windshield. No reason not to keep running these, unless you live in the rust belt. I used these trucks exclusively into the '90s before deciding to baby them through the winter. I've always felt I'm living in the wrong place when it comes to trucks.

Re: 30 years in Business-And we're still using these trucks!
That's what these trucks are great at : dependable machines that anyone with a little ability can keep running for years. New trucks are wonders of efficiency and technology, but try working on one..
Congratulations on your trucks and for 30 years of business. Both are accomplishments to be proud of.
