ZK your pic took me back, that looks like my favorite model from my college days in 1998-99.
I am happy to hear you have got so many years of good use, that’s my justification for spending $9200 on one. It was the last item I really needed for the home gym that will save me about $300 a year in membership fees, and which I will actually use more and not have to drive to. I also like having my own music with a Bose sound system, not the increasingly bad music at the gym mixed in with loud advertisements and repetitive instructions to always wipe down and download the gym’s app.
Nothing like being able to get a 3 hour workout and not have my knees and feed hurt the next day. Though after hitting my weight loss goal I have been focusing on upping intensity not time, so average 1.5hrs 3x a week now, and only go 3 hours about once a month.
