Do the math.   Even at 80  bucks/day (cheap for many host motels who 
end up with 'Vairs in the lot for a week) the monthly rate for a 
single room with two beds in it is still 2400 bucks.    That's more 
money than I make in a month.

And that doesn't include anything resembling the sort of meal you'd 
get from your own fridge, for cheap.


If I have the choice of spending close to a C-note on a room for the 
night, and buying no parts, or spending half that on a room at the 
Scottish Inn down the road and the other half on those obscure 
hard-to-find Vair parts, which line do you think I'll be standing 
in...?   ;)


...the bucks saved are better spent on the vendors.    Besides, I 
have Corvairs.   I'm cheap by default.
