I drive a hybrid.... can I count it?
Locomotives are hybrid so it’s possible…but I doubt it.I drive a hybrid.... can I count it?

If you counted the kids vehicles...... then we smoked it. But at that point the kids were driving vehicles they purchased. Dodge Cummins, Nova, PT cruiser, Ford F150 v8, Chevy Tahoe V8. But the kids purchased their vehicles so I won't count it. We were sitting around 700hp at that point between my wife and I with the F150, Tahoe, and lawn, garden equipment.However, that was when I was 60, not 40.
I don't think any combination of simultaneously owned vehicles and/or equipment would have reached 500hp, let alone 1000 at any point before that age.
Try adding up the cost of fuel you have used over your lifetime. Now look at how many tons of carbon you've dumped into the atmosphere.Coworking from the UK was talking, I guess "a thing" among him and his friends was owning 1,000 HP by the time they were 40. Didn't matter how many engines or what type it took to get to 1,000 HP. Of course I had to start calculating...1,569 HP was what I came up with. Pretty respectable but then I counted all the engines it took to get there, 21. Three are purely recreational (dirt bikes for the children) but all the rest are for work, kind of shocked me a bit.
So figured I'd see what numbers everyone else has and if you think there's anything you could cut or want to add?
