From the 1968 50th Anniversary post here earlier, it's pretty clear some of us have had our cars for a significant stretch of time now. 29-years is the longest I heard of so-far, can anybody beat that one (mine is 22-years in April)?  Another question: is your car older or younger than you are (I'm 10-years older than mine)?

Well, my '73 Charger has been in my family since it was new. In my garage maybe 12 years.  ;)

I've had mine for 13 years. Not the longest by any stretch, but damn it seems like yesterday when I drug this thing home. Car is 5 months and nine days older than me.  :icon_smile_big:

Got the 73 when I was 16...that was 15 years ago.  I've had the 70 for about a year and a half.

I hope one day I can say I've owned mine for several decades, but I'm still in the Honeymoon phase with my 70, having owned it for just 2 years.  It's 13 years older than me.
