Whos fluid is the oldest?
Windshield washer that is. I still have the fluid from the dealers which dates back over 2 years old. I never need it, only drive it on nice days, but don't call it a "garage queen" I have over 21,000 miles. The only time it dispences is when the pedal hits the floor.

Wow, I hadn't even thought of that! Mine is still the original that came new with my car! And it's a '99! 
In almost five years I have only used it a couple of times -- I very rarely drive it in bad weather. It only has 21,480 miles.
I have changed ALL my other fluids -- except brake fluid, which I will have done in a couple of weeks.

FYI:
There are 27 different bodily fluids in all of us... Let's not try to name them all... it gets ugly quickly....
I've never changed any of mine...
Ive had some added when they were low...

I don't recall ever filling mine up, so at least some of the fluid would be over 4 years old.

Hi INTRUBL -
That's a good one!
My fluid is still the factory fill, I usually only let it squirt out a little at the pressure wash, just to keep the lines from clogging up. I have recently been seeing a "low washer fluid" message on my DIC display.
best regards -
