I never have and the reason is stated above. I have had the opposite, the original owner tracking me down because they wanted it back. I didn't like being put in the position of being the bad guy who loves and cares for his truck for being unwilling to part with it just because someone decides years later they want the truck back that they decided to sell. I was made to feel like I shattered a dream for not playing along. I did take the info for when I ever would sell it, called years later, and this same person who about begged for the vehicle was no longer interested.
