How many engines do you have in your garage?

Was working hard out in the shop the other day, (well, ok, I might have been sitting there drinking beer) and realized I had 9 internal combustion engines out there. 3 dirt bikes, 1 chain saw, 1 sidewalk edger, 1 weed eater, 1 push mower, 1 rider, and 1 snow blower. I'm going to try and find a hedge trimmer too. Am I sick? How many do you guys have?

Title says "How many engines do you have in your garage".

4 "Engines".

Lawn Mower, Snow Blower, Chainsaw and Motorcycle.

Truck is too big to fit in the garage.

Have a lot of "Motor's" though,
weedeater #1, weedeater #2, lawn edger, circular saw, jig saw, dremel, freezer compressor, couple of old remote controlled cars/trucks, 2 garage door openers, couple electric train sets (setup around the Christmas tree style).

I have seven: 2 model helicopters and 5 model airplanes.

I didn't count the lawnmower and trimmer 'cause they're out back in the storage shed.

Ran out of room in the barn, around 50 tractors of various size and make, mostly John Deere two cylinders. Countless small engines, probably 30 of those in bins on the shelf, plus another 10 to 15 on various garden tractors and such. 3 john deere V-4 starting engines strored on selfs that are for parts.

I think 100 is a good round number to call it.

Why do you hate me??? I can't ride these engines to town...they're just "spares"

Chris

BTW, you have an ISB5.9, not a 6BT5.9. You can't handle a real engine
