Default Is there such a thing as too many?

Got back into the RC hobby a year and a half ago. Since then its claimed it's own room in the house. I've got three scx10s, a cr01, a cc01 and another cc on the way. Two tc3's, a stampede 4x4, an old Blackfoot, and a boat. I'm just about to Reno the RC room adding loads of shelving and a full sized work bench. With a pond an a Mountian with scaler trails all over it things arent slowing down!!! How many rigs do you other addicts have?... Too much fun!

Obviously the perfect number of RC vehicles is one more than you currently own.

I have.....
13 cars/trucks that just need a charged battery to run. 3 more just need a piece of electronics to run. Couple more rollers.
3 heli's
3 planes. And several more that need repair.

This has been collected over the last 10 years or so.

i got around 50 'vintage' buggy and truck shelf queens, mostly a.e. prolly that many again in parts... its too much but i figure i already got them and have no reason (yet) to get rid of them. they have completely overrun my hobby room now that i have my gf living with me. (used to have a room dedicated to shelf queens)

i got around 10 scalers and enough parts to make prolly 10 more.
