Trying to do mental gymnastics to justify leasing a base model, no frills, all white, Land Rover Defender 110. It is the vehicle of my childhood, going on Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo, Aberdares safaris in Kenya. Just the basics please. Estimating 15,000 miles/year and USD 10k down, the lease is $429/mo.
And also want to buy a used 2006 Tundra pick-up (made in Japan) with 104,000 miles, in excellent condition from a private seller in my neighborhood. He wants USD 10500.
And then want a new road bike, the current one's drivetrain has issues that local bike shop can't fix, parts are on last legs. I should replace the drive train, but the new carbon fiber bikes are sooooo much lighter than my 2007 CF one.
I could go on, but I'll stop for now.
I don't need any of these, I just have a stupid mental itch. And a desire to spend for no genuine reason. I'm a feckin idjit.
