I am glad I can get my 73-79 fix on here. Since we had our 2nd child, I hardly ever drive my 79. Last week, I told myself to get it out and drive it everywhere you go. I had so much fun!!!! When I pulled up a the drive thru at the bank, a ford fan ask me to pull over so he could take a look at it. That made me get the big head! I turned the air off and rolled the windows so I could enjoy that cam singing a lick out the flows. At 39, that old truck makes me feel like a kid again!!!!

 

I drive mine daily no matter what gas costs!!!

 

I drive my '73 F100 2wd 390 every day - wouldn't have it any other way...

I drive mine when there is no rain or snow here.

 

Mine has been getting me to school and work faithfully and anywhere else I need to go for that matter...for just about a year now, best thing I ever did was sell my rice burner. The truck is older then me...and I like driving "classics" I'd keep a car for the summer if I could find one to drive here and there.

Not a fan of newer stuff, I cant justify the cost when the old stuff is 100x cooler and costs so much less.

i agree, i dive mine every day, love the sound of that cam in that big V8. new stuff is just to hard to work on and cost too much. these trucks are to cool and to cheap to keep on the road. wouldn't have it any other way.

 

well i got my 77 ford f100 i have to say i drive it 7 days a week most all of the time..alot of fun..and the most often question i get for some reason is ..what year is that...lol

 

i drive min ehwne the weatehr is good and just for cruises. im affraid to leave it somewhere unattended. people are always talkin to me, and wanting to buy ti off of me. around mb there arnt many trucks like mine, in such good shape. ther all farm trucks that are dead

 

I only drive my truck a few times a week at the moment. I just don't use it that much anymore. I don't dare take it out on the freeway (6.8mpg) so I restrict it to work and local driving.

 

I only drive mine a fwe times a week also. Gas prices and the mileage I get are the only things that keep me from driving mine everyday. I love the looks I get when I pass someone in a new crew cab. I always get a wave or a thumbs up.

 

Those of you who aren't driving it every day (especially vampiro) what are you driving? I had 3 vehicles at one point (2 insured) and it was just crazy trying to keep up with the insurance, repairs aren't as big of a deal if you do it yourself but still.

Just curious

 

I drive a 96 extended cab most of the time. I have more room for the kids and all of their stuff it it. I have more fun driving the F-100 when it is clean and the wheels polished. The older I get, the more I hate to detail it!

 

I work on the farm a lot, so I don't have any need to go anywhere. I do take my mom to the doctor's a lot, but thats a 200 mile round trip, so I take the Cadillac.

If I am all dirty and need parts, I'll take one of the trucks...

 

Every day! My 79 is my daily driver/work truck.

 

I like to drive our 65' Galaxie a good bit now that she runs O.K. Try not to take her out in the rain too much. She cleans up good and is a good conversation piece. I love to take my truck out as often as possible, but my brake job is draggin on and I have a company vehicle to drive to and fro work so she sits some too. My work truck is a Ford too to boot.
