151000 miles later, how many years was that?

Reads rest of article

He lost it in 2014 in the assembly line putting together Ford Fusion's, fast forward ~~9~~ 11 years later and a mechanic changing the air filter (no one changes the dam air filter for ~~9~~ 11 years?) Could not latch the filter box back on and when he looked closer he say that the lost wallet was blocking the clip and preventing the box from closing.

EDIT: Me no math very good

The article says he lost it around Christmas in 2014 while working at the factory. So, 11 years
