Sorry to hear about your mom.

Are you planning on buying the house and living with your dad or branching out on your own? Either way, ditch the toys, and become a homeowner. I thought you already owned a house and that's why you had the toys. House > Cars.

Also if you can, get a 3 car garage or a deep 2.5 car garage. I bought my house before I got married so a two car was plenty, however, I guess being married means your wife gets a spot on the garage so when I get a winter DD in a few months, it's going to have to sit outside. I HATE parking any of my cars outside, especially when the snow comes. Plus you can never have too much garage space
