One of the worst (british) car diseases is that it is hard to keep from
buying more than just one vehicle.  The worse perhaps, if you ask
your spouses and neighbors.  More fun if you ask most of us.  :-)  The
disease is capable of spreading via the written word.

Some of the many symptoms:
  -buying a parts vehicle but then deciding it just has to be keeper
  -attemping to buy a car and sell it for a profit (haha!)
  -buying one, and finding a better example for less [it's a deal], buying it
   too
  -finding one in a barn, convinced it is a deal, rare, or just darn exciting
  -the inability to ever fully part out a parts car or throw anything away
  (this rusted out floorpan makes a great cheese grater, and I may need it 
   later anyway)

6 months)
