Too many vehicles

We bought a used camper yesterday. I'm excited to have some family adventures in it. Now that I've hauled it home, I'm afraid this thing is the straw that broke the camels back. The fleet now consists of my '06 Sierra, my wife's '06 Mazda 3, an '11 Malibu I bought recently for family hauling duties/to keep some of the miles off of my truck, a '74 Buick Apollo, the camper, a 4x8 utility trailer, and a riding lawn mower (which is frankly ridiculous for my size yard, but it was free), all in the confines of a suburban corner lot's driveway and 2.5 car garage. It's too much, something has got to give.

Definitely can't afford another, nor do I have the space. But I'd love a K5 Blazer :D

Bah, when you get to 10 with a few abandoned* cars (and 2 commercial trucks) on your properties, come back to me.

My Buick is loud as hell (straight pipes), and nobody has complained about that in the four years we've lived here. But the camper is another story. It wasn't parked for two hours when one of them came to bitch. "You're not going to keep that camper THERE are you?" Truth be told, I didn't like how it looked where I put it, but seriously bitch, TWO HOURS?!?! Can't you just let us be excited for, I don't know, a DAY?

Sell the lawnmower, use the money to pay your neighbour's kid to do the mowing for you.

Except for the commercial trucks, you sound like my old neighbor. That kind of accumulation would require a divorce.

That's what my wife wants, but she's clumsy enough on a bicycle!

I'm thinking of selling the lawnmower and using the money to buy a snow blower. Honestly, I could use tge excersize of pushmowing it myself.
