#4 forgot to mention frequent snake bites - getting bitten on the calf or shin by the exhaust. For most people that is a one-time lesson learned, but some seem to forget. Heat shields will fix this.
I've been "bitten" twice. The second time was about 15 years ago. I reckon I should prepare for the 3rd "bite"

after bragging how long ago it happened.
I added line (n.) to my original post #4. Ouch!
Now, if this darn snow will go away. I got home to 12 more inches of it last night!!!
