I too have a bad case of spending on toys . I have 7 Quads including kids quads of course . Nice baja . Nice boat . Alot of rc cars , toyhauler, a garage with a full fab shop ..... Gets kind of crazy . But now I try to keep the toys budget separate from the house budget .... Use side job money or sell something to get something else ... Can't have it all but man I have sure tried lol.

Struggle with it every day. Drive an 01 Silverado thats getting up there in years that I just sunk some money into, could easily get into a new rig but I ask myself would it do anything different?

I passed on a blown 23 t-bucket for very, very low money recently.

Always liked the drag/bar hopper style chopper and see them every day for a quarter of what they cost to build.

The wife is no help at all, whenever I show her some thing her comment is "Honey if you want it, buy it"

Probably a good thing I dont have a garage:p

Had a slammed 72 like yours we put a 472 Cad motor in, best/coolest tow rig ever, never should have sold that. Now finish yours so I can check out the vid.:drillsergeant:

I'm a broke dick, so life is simple (except when bills are due, and that's about always).

Hey Steve, I think it would have been cheaper to buy steps for your first Excursion, instead of a whole other truck... :D

You're just doing your part for the economy. Money needs to move. I never understood people who could save it. You can't take it with you and your kids are just gonna blow it on stupid shit themselves. Might as well enjot it while ya can.

My problem is with daily spending. Fuel food n whatever always seems to be no less than $60 a day. While not much it does add up and seems to get us nothing. Always need to go to target or walmart or grocery store for this or that. That could be more toy $$$ if i could trim that down

Figure out how to spend other peoples money and Charge a finders fee. Honestly if I was looking for a Hallett I would contact you and see what you would charge to "hunt" one down. Some of us are too busy to hunt...

Let me broker your deals for you.

Let me know what you want to buy. I'll send you pictures, you send me the cash, you keep the pictures. When you want to flip it I'll send you back 90% of what you sent me. Or I'll send you 80% and on occasion 110% to make you feel better :D

I have the same issue. Have rotated through about 10 different dirtbikes in my garage over the last year. Right now I only have 4, 2 for me and one for each of my teen age boys. I'm always looking on Craigslist for the next deal I can get my hands on.

You just described my life. I'm half tempted to sell everything and disconnect my Internet to keep me from shopping.
