I've got the Blade equivelant, so I'm good. The horses over the past 15 years have probably cost me as much as a brand new Gunboat 62 for sure, but then I also rode them, my wife rides them, my two other kids rode once in a while.

At one time all 6 of us rode, but now, not so much. I hate to go near them, as all I see is $$$$ flying out of my wallet every time I go to our barn, which BTW, cost me $42,000 to have built...then there is the $17,000 trailer being pulled by the $35,000 truck...

Don't make me add it all up, I'll kill myself.

So, how many of you DAD's out there are going to buy your kid a $10,000 to $16,000... or what ever, "Toy", if YOU can't also play with it??
