95% of people driving on the road will see me driving a four-door silver sedan. The other 5% who are car enthusiasts will pull up next to me, or approach me at a gas station or parking lot saying "wow what a great ride, what's it like?" I actually like the fact that only a small percentage of the population actually know what it is or what it's worth.

The pinball machines in our house are just part of our entertainment package. Obviously, I have pinhead friends who will come over and play for hours at a time. But when we have other guests at some point we will usually say "there's some pinball machines downstairs if you guys want to try them". Most people will be polite and go down to take a look. Some will freak out and play three and four hours and ask to come back. Most, however, will politely play a game or two and then move on to sit on the sofa to chat for the rest of the evening.

I Initially Thought people would say something like "wow I am impressed!" But actually, I typically hear "wow I'm impressed but some guy almost 60 years old is this obsessed with playing with toys".

it's typically a very narrow number of individuals who have a strong interest in specialized items such as automobiles, watches, pinball machines, whatever. If I came to your house and you wanted to show me your vintage guitar collection I would be interested in looking at them for about 10 minutes, and then I would be done.

But I have found that most people don't ask a lot of questions. If I'm ever asked how much they're worth I will always say "more than I have in them". Remember, most of us are in this hobby for our own enjoyment, and our families enjoyment, not so much to impress or convert other people to pinball enthusiasts.

Good vehicle!
