I recognize appreciating cool machines, I really do. I’ve just never been able to wrap my head around being a car guy. Spending huge chunks of change on a car, consistently modifying it, watching car shows all the time. I just dont get it. What’s the big draw for you?
I like all kinds of tech, gadgets, tools and machinery. Cars are just one part of that. I’d like to have an excavator too if I could afford one and justify buing it, but I don’t. Car however, I have need for so why not go and buy one that you actually enjoy driving and looking at rather than something that just gets the job done. I don’t really spend a huge amount of money on it. My truck cost me 10k€ and the maintenance + fuel + insurance costs for the 7 years I’ve had it are around 350€/month. I can imagine myself spending more on offroad mods and such but I just have no need for that currently.
