I don't need it but I want it

Have you ever wanted something you know you didn't need? I know I have at various times over the years. Currently, my unneeded want is an electric bicycle.
I don't need an electric bicycle. I don't need any type of bicycle. But I think they are really neat and I would really like to have one.
Where and when would I ride an e-bike, you ask?
That's a good question. I rationalize the want by telling myself that if K and I both had one, we could take them on camping trips and ride them to visit places close to the campground thus saving money on gas and the hassle of parking the truck.
And that's it. I can't think of any other good reason for incurring the expense of an e-bike other than occasionally using it when we go camping.
But I still want one.
Is there something you know you don't need but that you really want? Tell us about it.

Well, every year I changed to the latest model of an iPhone. I normally get them on the day of its launching in my country. I don’t need it but I want it.

@DWDavis You're doing the right thing. But I can't stand an old phone. Too slow for me.

I would have liked a wildlife cam camera when we lived on our farmlet but it would be pretty useless now. A few of the people in the village have e-bikes. I think they think they are exercising when they ride these but they don't take much effort.

Hubby has looked at those. They could be fun. But a regular bike would be better for health

@DWDavis With those problems the electric would be better.

Well, I would like a few milion dollars. LOL. Just kidding. I think one of those four wheel, two seater bikes would be cool to have, especially in good weather. Unfortunately, they are very expensive and probably not as practical as I think. It might help with soaring gas prices, but who knows?
