how many toys do you own?
 
I'm just wondering if there's a such thing called "too many toys". I've got my DD Corolla, the spyder, MR2, Nissan Titan, and my Skeeter bass boat. That is all to myself and nobody else. How many do you have?

I got a DD audi, 95 tsi awd project, 96 esi, mxz 670 sled that i put a 144" track on, 82 rm 250 dirt bike I would say you can never have enough toys!

I just have one fun car in the garage. I wouldn't count my DD as a toy.
Now bedroom toys, that's a different ballgame.....:Banane56: Wait, did I just make it weird?

Oh lordy..here we go: '93 TSi AWD, '94 Colt Base (in serious need of a 4g63), '95 Mirage LS (AWD swapped), '95 TSi AWD Auto., 1999 GS-T and finally my '95 12 Valve Cummins.

Most of these aren't running..actually, only two have engines in them. I seem to keep reading people's claims that it isn't hard to get them running. I would raise the point of where the money is supposed to come from to buy parts and the like. I know I don't have money falling out of my...crevasses. It's just kind of annoying to listen to.

You and me both...one fun car, one DD.

I have my '11 335Xi as my fun car/DD, 05 GSXR 1000 and 19' Lund fish/ski with 115hp on it. I have really thinned down the heard for fun stuff, but still have a few other vehicles around that I am ready to send to the junk yard because I don't want to deal with them anymore. Once the house is done, then I want to start a kit car. Hopefully an Austin Healey 3000 (with a V12 in it), but possibly a cobra.

Nothing because I have to many bills. How the hell do you afford more than 1 fun car with the space lol. I'm doing it wrong :(

b00sted_spyder 11-06-2014 08:14 PM

Re: how many toys do you own?
 
Don't sell them. As for space, buy a house with a nice driveway. I'm ready to move into a house with bigger garage already since the 2 car garage with a 6 car driveway ain't cutting it anymore. Need to sell the Skeeter so I can get a Celica and a Cafe Racer for spring.

Re: how many toys do you own?
 
01 Dodge 3500 Dually (daily), 98 AWD Spyder, 97 AWD converted GST, 98 GSX, 86 Hydrostream Valero... (All of those vehicles are white, yes I have a problem)... 04 Honda CBR1000rr, 06 KTM 525sx, 05 Honda 650r, 06 Yamaha TTR-50, 89 MK3 Supra getting a 4g64.

Looks like I need to sell a few things. lol

Re: how many toys do you own?

2008 Eclipse GT - DD
1999 3000GT VR4
1995 3000GT VR4 Spyder
1995 Stealth R/T TT
2008 Toyota Tundra

Re: how many toys do you own?
 
I agree with Curt, I like toys, but with too many they will own you.

1966 - Chevy Caprice
1970's - minibike aka "Finger biter"
1992 - Eagle Talon TSI
2003 - Fleetwood Bounder RV- 38 feet
2006 - Evo IX SE

I've started to seriously think about only owning what is still relevant, but I can't convince myself to sell my dirt bike or toy hauler... It would cost me more to buy another when it's relevant, so why bother if I have room to store these things?

Any regrets, other than your ex retaining your scoot? :)

Wife only rode her gsxr 2 times last year but it's payed for so it ok with me if it sits cause its there when she wants it. I hate selling toys always seem to regret it down the road.

A//// Guy 11-14-2014 04:04 PM

Re: how many toys do you own?
 
No regrets for me selling any of my toys. Its easy to buy, hard to sell. Theres always a newer better model out there to want to get as well.

I do miss having a fun car though.

Zero. I find cars more fun than motorcycles; after having too many close calls I decided it was time to call it quits and hang up the helmet. Regarding the water toys...cheaper to rent a few weekends per year than it is own/maintain/insure/store. Plus, I don't have a tow vehicle at my disposal anymore.

Good call, I should edit my post. Everyone should get a toy hauler, purely for storage space!

A stand-up jet ski still remains on my want list, but I fear the odd engine I know nothing about. I've owned just about everything I've wanted, but want a RWD muscle car again. I'd love to burn rubber all over the city while dressed up like Smokey and the Bandit in an old Trans Am. The Evo lacks that kind of flair

I LOL'ed at jeremy1375's list.

Wooftah... updated mine with pics. Some of my toys have multiple modes: Summer/Winter/track/street/off-road >>> http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/sho...5&postcount=13

I just got battery tenders yesterday, but am contemplating if I should really buy one for every battery :/ I'm thinking of using each tender between two batteries
