Great show, I've watched it religously since I was a young kid
What do you mean "since you were young" :grin: I remember the first season. I thought they bit off more than they could chew. The second season I was actually working construction part time with Brian.

Hmmmm...I answered yes, but I don't know if that's really true. I may spend as much on firearms, but I don't spend nearly as much time with them.

Rock crawling. As mentioned by Esheep, it adds up quick. $800 for two seats and saftey belts. $3000 rear axle. Not to mention that we carry spare parts that most people have to go to a mechanic for. A major repair for most is usually occomplished with a rock as a work bench, a pair of vice grips and hammer. I went out the day after thanksgiving and locked up a front brake caliper. I pulled it off the rotor, zip tied it up to the frame with a piece of steel in it to keep the piston from popping out, then continued on. About 2 hrs later, I blew up both front axles. I pulled the drive shaft and followed the rest of the group to watch from there on out.

I guess it can be considered separate but related, but I'd call the building and repair of jeeps as a hobbie also. Welders, tubing benders, 80 gallon 2 stage air compressor, air tools. That list goes on farther than the list of parts on my jeep.

Fishing, hunting, hookah.
Spend more time on hookah in the fall, but winter/spring are definitely dominated by cigars. I also have pets all the time, too. Had three baby turtles, a newt, some fish, a hedgehog, etc. I've only got a dwarf hamster and a gecko right now, tho. Usually get a new pet everytime one dies.
