Saw my old truck today
#41
I've seen my old 05 ram 2500 driving around, new owner put a ladder rack on it. I've also seen my old nissan altima nismo coupe driving around. i know its mine because is the only one in pearl white debadged on 19's I've ever seen only one i haven't seen is my more recent lifted nissan titan. I'm guessing because that one had higher milage the dealer sent it to an auction so who knows where she went...

Oooo a Custom Title.
Traded in a 2010 Fusion just over a year ago. I saw it again... in my job parking lot, someone from the company next door brought the car.
I traded it in at 98k miles, must be at 105k+ by now, still see it every day.

My 2 previous trucks were a 92 Ranger and a an 03 Sport Trac and I haven't seen either one since I got rid of them. I sold the Ranger to a young military guy so doubt it might have left the area and the Sport Trac I traded in on my current truck, there's a good chance it went to an Auction out of the area.

Just traded in my old jeep a few weeks ago and already found it on Craigslist! haha

I agree with most here. I'd hate to see someone else driving it. I put way too much time into that thing.

This has happened to me twice! Traded in my 07 while living is San Antonio. 1.5 million people. It came up behind me on the interstate about a week later. Guy had all sorts of papers and crap in the dash. Made me mad!! Since then I moved to St. Louis. I traded my 09 in Springfield IL, about 2 hours away. I work there a once a month and one morning on my way there I met it on the highway. This guy made me happy though. It looked every bit as nice as when I got rid of it.

We had a super clean bright red 1998 F-150 Supercab 4X4 that we sold in 2002. With three in college all driving their own vehicles (and us paying their insurance), we had to cut expenses somewhere. The guy who bought it was very impressed with the condition of the truck. Two years later I spotted it at a grocery store and it looked as clean as the day we sold it. After our boys graduated, I ordered a 2010 F-150 in red too.

Years ago, my uncle had an '86 GMC that he had rebuilt from the tires up. New engine/trans, new paint, new interior, the works. My brother ended up buying the truck from him, and I from my brother. I did some mods to it, and got it running great.
I drove it to his place one day, and let him take it around the neighborhood. I told him "Stand on the gas..." He did, and it threw us back in the seat. I laughed, and he was delighted. We got back to his house, and he told my aunt, "He's got that thing purring like a kitten!" I ended up selling the truck a year or two later.
Fast forward two years after that, and a kid I was mentoring and I were talking about that truck. He was a 15 year old who loved all things mechanical, and me reminiscing about my uncle's truck. We pull up to a light, and there it was!!
We were in traffic, so I rolled down the window, and talked to the driver. It was definitely my uncle's truck. Still looked great!

I know...it's weird - right.
I see my Titan rolling through Scottsdale Arizona like once every couple of months.....dude must live fairly close. Nice looking truck, but...nothing like my Boost!
