We're all jeep owners and have no clue what a cheap hobby is unless we read about someone else's!!

every hobby can get expensive if you get too deep into it. i am into slot cars, and even though they are tiny cars that fit in the palm of your hand, it isn't much cheaper than my jeep hobby.

Fly tying can be inexpensive once you've got a decent set of tools, plus it's every relaxing. Though not very interesting unless you like to fly fish, which of course is NOT cheap.

Other than that, I wish I had cheap hobbies. Here's a good stay away list:
Jeeps
Motorcycles
Ice Hockey
Hunting/Fishing
Mountain Biking
Any activity in Europe
Scuba Diving
Travel
Skiing
Dogs/pets in general

I play call of duty. You do have to buy a Xbox and a game but Xbox live only cost like 50 a year. A new cod game comes out once a year. 60. So after you have the Xbox it's only 110 dollars a year to shoot people in the face.

I recently bought a used Nikon D5100 DSLR, had no idea how to use the shutter / aperture settings or anything however, am slowly starting to muddle my way through it, also comes in handy with my other hobbies, takes great pictures of the Jeep, trips and vaca with the girl, or car shows and such.
