M715's Age Group

[compexp]

46 and aging rapidly.

For me, 715s and 725s started because I had owned a J-10 since 1984, and always liked the look. Saw my 725 on ebay as a parts truck, and the front end being the same hooked me.

39, but my 11 year old son was just asking me last night if he could have one of my 715's for his first car.

I'm 40. I found out about them after seeing an ebay post by Krek (Krek, if you're reading, tell your kids "Sarge" is doing great) My son and I saw the posting and then found this website. A week later my father-in-law and I did a road trip to pick up "Sarge" and the rest is history. I added a Deuce the following year. It is true, O.D. is an addiction.

41 and saw one when I was about 10 years old. I quickly found out what it was, but until the advent of the internet, I didn't know how to find one. Finally picked up my truck back in '06.

I'll be 32 in 6 days and I grew up crawling on 2 M715's my FD still has that's where the 405 in my name comes from. I loved those trucks and it's what brought me to the zone and what made me buy mine it even smells the same when I get in!!!

Wow fellas! I didn't think that I was going to be that far down the bottom of the list!

I am 27. I will tell you guys this though. This group of people makes me feel much younger. Not because of this poll for age groups. But more or less because of the wisdom and knowledge that I have gained from the people here.

I don't care how "old" some of you guys think you are, just keep sharing that knowledge with us and it'll make you feel like you are getting younger. I swear.

Jon, thanks for the graph. That pretty much sums up my question. Thanks to all who responded so far. Some interesting comments to say the least. I guess I do sit up there at the top of the age list. Positive side of that is I'm retired and enjoying the heck out of my truck. Also time for my military collecting hobby and grandkids, wife and family. Got myself a school crossing guard job too. Being 60 isn't so bad after all! Lifes good.
