But it's the same with everything.

Motorcycles, someone's always trying to make an adventure bike out of a street bike or a dirt bike out of an adventure bike.
Cross trainers looking for the perfect gym/running shoe. Lol!
It's unending!
Just an observation.
The problem for me is, I gotta make sure I don't get roped into that kind of thinking. I can't afford it!

Throw Photography in the mix and you have the perfect trinity of expensive hobbies where you're always trying to get the 'next best thing'.
