Top 10 things every man should own sometime in their life

[72jroberts]

I was listening to Bob and Tom radio show and they had this list. I feel like BF members are a cut above the rest. We have better lists. Of course I would say a spouse, a house, kids, etc. go without saying. I want this to be more toward edc, but contribute the way you wish. Keep in mind I don't mean that these are the only things that one should own, and my list isn't perfect. Perhaps your choices will bump some of mine out of the way.
Have fun, show me better choices- even if you can't get 10, or if you want to list more than 10.
Here's mine:
1. A firearm
2. A folding knife
3. A motorcycle
4. A Backpack- everyday edc or a dedicated mountain pack.
5. A motorcycle
6. A dog
7. A four wheel drive vehicle
8. A toolbox full of tools
9. A zippo lighter
10. A laptop computer

You have motorcycle twice, replace one with a rear-wheel drive V-8 powered car.
