If a deal pops up, I would probably just buy it and figure it out later where it would go.

That's exactly how I ended up with vehicles stashed in 4 counties in 6 different places before I bought my house. Then, rather than round those up I got more to fill my driveway that I made double wide and extended more than twice as long. I ended up renting a barn on a farm slated for development, once it sold, which took years. I gathered so much stuff it was crazy and I loved it! Then it sold not long after my wife left and I had inherited her debts from a recent re-fi. The rules had changed and it was time to lighten up. It helped me realize I really did have too much stuff and, although it hurt at first, I came to feeling good about simplifying my life. Which seems to be where CG is at now, as far as getting to a point in life. All at once my life became about from here on out and how much time do I really have?

Great! I do think of it as a grille in the bank. I'm running low on trucks and parts trying to build up a decent stash. Just kidding. Sticking with the less excess thing. But I do have the desire to build one other, a '68 GMC flatbed for my retirement chore boy. Plus, I'm still keeping spare parts for the two keepers. I know no life without spare parts
