Watch out. You know you're in trouble when one friend ask how many you own and after you reply another friend points out that you forgot the one you left at his house.

And then we all hang our heads in shame. Do you have most of these parked inside? How often do you get the time to drive each one? Even with just five I find it hard to make sure they're all driven and tended to.

The nice stuff is covered and parked inside, but I'm definitely at the point where I need to build another shop. We are debating moving in a few years, so the shop build is on hold, otherwise I think it would be a waste of money. Huge things like the Halo truck and Peterbilt are outside.

As far as driving them. Most are on battery tenders and are ready to go, so I drive them when I can, but the reality is some only get driven a few hundred miles a year, if that, while others get driven thousands. My k1300s bike, k3500 dually, and 300sd get the most miles, but when you have this many it is very tough to drive them all "a lot". I've never had an issue with cars sitting when maintained properly (out of the elements, gas additives, battery tender, started occasionally etc). It is tough though. I'm in my shop every evening after work and almost all weekend generally as well. I plan to slim down at some point, but it's hard to decide what to sell. Not to mention I love buying, but hate dealing with selling.
