    All that being said.... One of my best life experiences was back in '88. Put a used $1500 tent trailer on the back of my sedan, and did a loop around the country, over 2 months. Spent most of the nights parked either in a park or a KOA. The KOAs had showers and the camper did not.

    Sold the camper when I got back for a grand. Figure that was a cost effective trip cause I also moved out of my apartment while I was on the road.

    Came out ahead on another 5th wheel R.V. I purchased a few years back. Got the RV and an '92 F250 as a package deal off Crags List for $3500.
    Moved onto the property with that while I worked on getting the shop building livable, saving me the monthly rent on an apartment. Once I moved into the building, bartered the trailer to the neighbor for some work around the property. Still have the truck, been using it for projects. It's on it's last legs and needs to be gone soon.

    Exactly. She works in the “I can’t afford them but I own them anyways” industry.

    I love new tires. I have always had a weird fondness for tires. If we go anywhere that has a tire section I have to take a stroll by. Weird to have to explain to a woman. Been with the current one for 9 years. She’s used to it but still makes a comment every time.

    @Judge, that was really good thinking on your part. I applaud you. Kids that young have no choice when the parents are ruhtards.

    This takes me back to something dad told me and sis at the same time...... If it has tires, testicles, or t its, it is going to give you grief.

    Humans can survive:
    3 minutes without Air.
    3 Days without Water.
    3 Weeks without Food.
    Parents can survive not eating, but Children, not so much.

    Samaritan: You Helped the Children. :D:)
     
    Judge, Cowboyrich, Cattleman84 and 9 others Thank this.

    How about making it easy on yourself and renting a jack hammer?
