Yeah, $1500+ worth of tools rides around in my $500 jeeps every time I drive them. Learned my lesson there.
It does make trail fixes less painful by comparison, I just lie there on the ground working on my jeep going "well I wish I'd done this at home lying in dirt, at least there weren't people waiting for me there"
I did somehow manage to cram one jeep into my garage to work on it, but now I'm constantly re-arranging to keep a path clear enough to walk around it. Everything else gets worked on in the driveway, or the street when the driveway is full.
I've managed to keep it tidy out of necessity - I make my few bucks working on cars for people in the garage. If it's a slow few days, though, and I work on my own junk? Can't find a place to put my coffee down for all the tools & parts...
I've been to Kenya where I've seen professional mechanics working on the dirt street. They may have a small building for tools nearby if they are doing well. Often they just buy electricity from another business and run extension cords if they are lucky to have power tools. Welding out on the street/sidewalk is a pretty common occurrence.
This is a first world problem I will soon remedy for myself. Buying this place. There's a house somewhere on the property, eh whatever that's not the important thing.
