People's priorities are different. I change my vehicles' oil religiously, my brother doesn't even check his oil levels. I send out my nail guns for rebuilds when I feel they're due, while other contractors use them til they're cooked and have to buy new. Maintenance comes with ownership in my book. It is part of the investment. I mean, do you really figure in oil changes, new tires, etc. over four years when you buy a car? Given that I bought a used 200 very reasonably from another member, I can justify sending it out at the end of a season in which I fished it hard and was extremely pleased with the product.
