    That was always my dream if I lived more rurally. Imagine having a garage so big that you could work on several cars all the time!

    As it turns out I found more interesting things to build and fix, so my peak “car guy” was like 17 and I never did anything more complex than replace brakes and springs

      Yeah, when I bought my house (in an urban neighborhood), I had a choice between a 3/2 with a basement or a 2/1 with a 1/1 detached 2-car carriage house. I went with the former because my wife liked it better and I figured I could knock a hole in the basement wall to park cars in it, but I haven’t actually done that so I kinda regret not picking the latter. Having to work on my cars in the driveway really cramps my style.

      First apartment: 1200sq/ft.

      Current garage: 900sq/ft.

      I’m getting there…

      Spent the last couple weekends doing maintenance on a couple things out there cause it’s been abnormally warm.
