The only two times I don't wish I owned a newer and bigger rig are when I buy tires and change oil/filters.
My F-53 chassis has 13 zerks including four on the drive shafts, which I can get to. The old 460 uses 6 quarts of 5W30 and a TG-8 filter, about $25. The tires, although the weak point on the system, are 235LT16 LR E, so I can reshoe the rig for about $180 per tire.
The Onan Marquis 7000 uses 3.5 quarts of 5W30 and a TG-3600 filter. About $22 for that service.
