joe b hits it pretty much on the head..I'm a few years behind him and my income was not as good as his but I was able to have my horses and my bikes and a truck and camper to help enjoy my bikes and horses.
In 1975 I looked into flying, even took the get acquainted flight lessons. I could afford the plane but not without getting rid of
the bikes and horses.
Several years ago we once more looked into getting an airplan. Ouch!! If someone gave us one we couldn't afford the upkeep or the flight time to get and stay proficient.

Yes! Right on.
I,m also a member of tractorbynet. Choose between tractor or truck? I've already made that choice many times.I have to have both but if it got right down to it the pickup would be the last to go.That would be the same order in which I started. Pick up, Tractors, equipment, bigger tractors to run bigger equipment, bigger trucks to move bigger equipment...it's a chase and now it's time to start downsizing.
So maybe we will have more time to enjoy the RV and the horses.
