Well, I was just showing you that you could be in a position whee working on the car is a dream LOL. Not suggesting that a GF is the best move. (Unless Kelly were to bring that whole subject up, hahaha)
I really enjoy my time in my shop working on stuff with a Indycar or F1 race on. Granted my "Efficiency" rating drops because it's 1/3 watching 2/3 working (or some balance), but it's WAY better than me on the couch watching inside!

We both live in cold climates. Over 7 months are uncomfortable in the shop because it's cold. So the #1BEST thing I did was install a propane fueled Modine Hawt dog. (SMall ones are $500 -ish at the Home Centers or online). You need a proper regulator (Available at a company doing the gas equipment stuff), piping is super easy, black pipe with NPT fittings are hard to screw up, (appropriate gas rated yellow teflon tape or dope) and testing is a breeze with your in house compressed air, and either a Propane service or your own tank. (I got my own tank, the service was such a PITA and more $$, for not filling it when it needed it). My 65" x 15" (75lbs empty) tank needs filling every other week in the deep cold months like January when I'm using it, but my shop is 1917 and swiss cheese. (A $30 hand truck makes the tank loading into and out of the truck a breeze. (About 175lbs full.) But now I love being out there all toasy. And it was cheaper than moving to San Diego. (ALthough I'm still wanting that!)
Mini Fridge was a smart play. ANd an old computer with double monitors makes looking parts up soooo easy.

Love the MArantz. 70s vintage?

The bifold doors are cool, but you do lose opening height.
