A GMC truck in UPS service since 1987 has just turned 1 million miles. The odometer of one Bret Boyd has turned up to zero. That’s quite a performance for a service truck which has been around working full time for about 22 years.

The UPS truck is currently being used in Texas. During its lifetime it has gone through at least three engines and at least three paint jobs. Bret Boyd, its driver, has never been involved in any accidents with the GMC and he refused to replace it when he could have chosen a newer model.

Congratulations to Mr. Boyd and to GMC. I have a suggestion for him, if he still wants to keep the car, he should consider getting an engine that won’t eat as much gas.
