"I'll be 104 in 2 weeks."
And she doesn't act like she's over 100-years-old.
"Many people my age and even younger aren't able to cope and do what I do."
Gladys Flamer lives on her own in Coatesville, Chester County and does everything for herself.
"I make my own decisions, and do my own business and everything."
The feisty senior is also the owner of a two-toned 1979 Cadillac Coupe Deville.
"I tell you I always wanted to drive one."
And while many of us would be concerned for a woman her age driving a car that big, Miss Gladys says she wouldn't have it any other way.
"Well I've always drove a bigger car, I've been driving since I was 15-years-old."
She took us on a ride through her hometown of Coatesville to show us what being more than a century old is all about.
"I go wherever I want, cities or wherever."
Though a lot has changed on the roads over the years, Miss Gladys always gets to where she's going - even if she has to put a few extra cushions on her seat to reach the pedal.
"A lot of them think they can drive better than me. Maybe they can. But I don't have any problems with accidents. The cops don't bother me, so I think I drive alright."
So what's her secret?
"A lot of it is mental, a lot of people give in to something and they wait for the graveyard. It's going to come anyhow whether you wait or not, so why wait for it. Keep on doing what you been doing."
