Give it another 10 years in my garage and there still won't be no rust.

WHAT THE HECK!?!?!! It doesn't have steel wheels and it has power windows. I thought all trucks had to be manual everything.

It stays on jack stands in my barn with a cover during the winter. I only take it out when the temp is >55F

Nope... it's got power seats, windows, locks, split bench, with the optional black seats.

It is totally awesome to drive. It's got a tad bigger engine than a mustang, but (4.6 V8, 5 spd, coupe, 3237 lbs. GT w/ 5spd trans) with it's weight being just a tad more 3480 lbs (according a NYS certified weigh scale; full tank of fuel and me too)... so it's weight to power ratios are nearly identical. I call it a Mustang of a truck.

I will never ever get rid of it.
