Default Whats the longest you have riddin/driven a quad/bike/truck/car

Not really a Yammi thread but,
Some people like to hold on to stuff and drive it till it's dead....I had a 85' yz 80 I rode from 87 till 92 it was a great bike...

You guys prolly have somthing that people always ask when you are gonna git rid of..let's hear it! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

my buddy had a 95 4 cyl izuzu pick up he bought new and traded in 05. He NEVER changed the oil, only added some, NEVER changed the oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, etc. Changed the tires once, he used to overload that lil pick up with cord wood in it too. He also has an 01 AC or polaris, not sure, but he has never changed the oil or adjusted valves on it and he pulls about 40 cords a year out of the woods with it. He has some luck w/ neglecting motors.

My buddies dad has an old 73 Chevy pickup that is still used regularly but must have low compression cause it is gutless, they don't take it too far from home.
