When it comes to cars, my wife and I have always had a pair and a spare, but now we have an extra sitting next to the garage. And almost enough parts to build two 71 Toyota LandCruisers. And a motorcycle. Yeesh. 😁

Oh, I can relate, especially to the "pair" part.

We have one each Ram 3500, Challenger, Challenger GT, Ram 1500, Can-Am, and HiJet. Then I have other vehicles, and so does she.

Just sold my Jeep and some $8K in various parts, but still have enough left to build another one.

Now maybe it makes more sense why I really shouldn't buy yet another car. I'm already buried in maintenance.

I bought a $16 bottle of K-seal from Advance auto on my drive home from work yesterday. My 2005 John Deere 4120 tractor was starting to loose a little coolant and I feared the dreaded “timing cover” sealant leak. A “proper” repair of that, at the dealer, would likely cost in the neighborhood of $ 6k in today’s dollars.

So far, after roughly 10 operating hours, it seems to be doing the trick. Not sure what I’ll do with the $ 5984 that I saved on the repair. Maybe an Alaska vacation.
