The shop space holds 5, but I'm probably giving it up next year.

That leaves my humble 2 car garage, with 4 cars that have to be garaged to keep my sanity.

I don't know what I'm going to do. I'm an idiot since I built this house new 3 years ago. I'll probably sell it and get something with a metal building next to it and no HOA.

I can store two inside and one outside off the street currently without issue (and thats what I have) . With adjustments to the landscaping I could do two outside conveniently. Inconveniently I could fit 5 No plans for that. 3 is plenty.

buddy of mine bought a quarter acre of land in CO for 100 bucks a while back off ebay. Bought a school bus and parked it there, then converted it to living quarters. Cost him under 3 grand for his "resort home"

Find a place with cheap land values, and buy a couple acres, would be a lot cheaper than paying rent. Stash them there.

Only problem with that almost all of the cars are being worked on/need quick access.

The two that are parked at home are my 2 main cars, the one stored in my friends garage is my TE. The three that are at my friends shop are cars getting repaired/rebuilt. Two of them are Formula D cars and the other is one that I am repairing to resell. The final car is on loan to a friend. Car #8 could potentially be a problem, as I may not have a place to store it.

Geez, too many cars.

When one or more of them falls into neglect because it is not driven enough or stored properly.
