2 cars = 10
moped = 2
3 bikes = 6
lawnmower = 4 (one of them is flat)
wheelbarrow = 1
appliance dolly = 2
total of 25 (plus three tires that aren't attached to anything, but I haven't figured out how to dispose of them. Right now I just use them for mosquito breeding grounds)

39 if I didn't leave anything out.

3 cars = 15
1 pickup = 5
1 motorhome = 7
1 dumptruck = 6
1 tractor = 4
1 wheelbarrow = 2

I guess I shouldn't complain on spending upwards of $10K per year on fuel, insurance and maintenance.

It's a neat toy, I've always wanted one, but can't find a justification to own one. Well, that's true for a lot of stuff.

3 cars=15
1 van=6 (2 spares)
1 equipment trailer=5
3 boat trailers=10
1 tractor=4
1 zero turn mower=5
2 small dozers=4 tracks
1 track equals the cost of 15 tires!

I think I win

10 vehicles with 4 tires, plus 6 spares = 46
2 dually trucks, with 1 spare each = 14
1 motorhome with spare = 7
2 trailers (single and two axle), with spares = 8
rototiller = 2
3 two-wheel dollys = 6
1 tractor = 4
Other misc tools and equipment = 6
2 bicycles = 4
3 mini-bikes = 6


Total = 103, if I added right.......probably still forgot something.

Check out this forum: http://www.stovebolt.com/ubbthreads/...s.php/ubb/cfrm. It is all about old Chevy trucks. The Big Bolts is where I hang out. 1965 Chevy C60 dump truck. I'm building a house way back in the mountains. I will be doing some road building among other things. Careful though, this stuff can be contagious!

I understand. Photography stuff soaks up enough of my discretionary income without taking on any more projects.
