That's why I gave up on owning one.

To even get a basket case and to redo it will cost both balls.

True. Really though, that's just out of my income/viability range. I make around 6 figures a year (barely), and have a house, land, etc. to deal with. If I were older and had all of it paid off, I still wouldn't invest that much in 1 single-use item. A retirement estate, maybe, but not a car.

Everything I have is paid for. The Jeep, Z, PowerWagon, bike, house. I still have some payments on the motorhome. That was $328,000 new. When I retired. I was making over $150,00 a year. When my wife retired. She was making over $140,000 a year. Last year, I paid taxes on $98,000 retirement income.

Solid. I pay all of my bills, etc. (Not dual income, never will be) and am only 33, so there is a ways to go, but Im aiming to end up where you are. My tastes are less expensive, though. I just want to retire and be left alone asap, while still having my land and class 3 firearm hobby.

You left off one part. If Rusty ate a dollar, he would crap out 4 quarters and a nickel. LOL
