So, we turned around and I did end up picking it up later that day. Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself, but I just couldn't pass up the opportunity. I'm very exited to have this. My driveway isn't exactly short.




I always buy anything that I think is a good deal when it's a good deal for me, if I have the cash on hand.

Reason being, even if I don't have whatever it goes to, someone does, and they'll need it eventually, or I can use/modify it to work on something I do have. I've yet to lose anything by doing this, but you get really good at it over the years I've been doing it, to the extent that I can usually sell things for far more than I pay for them, making it worthwhile to hold onto them for awhile.

It does tend to piss off neighbors, though... they don't like the "junk" laying around. Good thing I don't really care, and they don't live *right* next door.
