Tucson Home Designed for the Enthusiast Fits 24 Cars

On 25 acres at the edge of the Saguaro National Park, just a short jaunt away from downtown Tucson, sits the ultimate home for a true automotive enthusiast, and it isn’t just the location that makes it so.

6501 West Sweetwater Drive, priced at only $1.5 million, is surrounded by beautiful Sonoran Desert scenery, the Rincon Mountains and plenty of space for more than 24 cars. Three separate garages can be found around this home, two attached, one detached, each with its own distinct purpose.
The smallest of the three offers space for two cars, perfect for storing the daily drivers in an easily accessible location. The second garage is detached, but is much larger than the first – with full operational lifts already installed, this collector garage can fit 18 cars within.

The third garage is the hobby garage. Also attached to the home, its walls are lined with workbenches and storage cabinets that rival those of the finest mechanics’ shops. A car wash station and loading dock spans the space between the hobby and collector garages. Between the three garages, a massive total of 7,847 sq. ft. is covered, all dedicated to automotive purposes.
Now comes the home itself. Expansive, warm, inviting and absolutely stunning, the 5 bedroom home encompasses nearly 6,000 sq. ft., with each room more interesting and beautiful than the last. Connected to the hobby garage is the bar-media-game room, an area that includes a private theater, a full bar and room for a pool table.

10 Behaviors of Genuine People

Whether you’re building a business, a network, or friendships, you always want to look for people who are genuine. After all, nobody wants to work or hang out with a phony. On the flipside, that goes for you, as well. Bet you never considered that.

In case you're wondering, genuine means actual, real, sincere, honest. Genuine people are more or less the same on the inside as their behavior is on the outside. Unfortunately, it's a tough quality to discern. The problem is that all human interactions are relative. They’re all a function of how we perceive each other through our own subjective lenses.

Being genuine is also a rare quality. In a world full of phony fads, media hype, virtual personas, positive thinkers, and personal brands – where everyone wants what they don’t have, nobody’s content to be who they are, and, more importantly, nobody’s willing to admit to any of that – it’s becoming more and more rare all the time.

To help you identify this rare breed -- in yourself, as well -- this is how genuine people behave.
They don’t seek attention. They don’t need constant reinforcement of their own ego. Where attention seekers have a hole that constantly needs to be filled, genuine people are already filled with self-confidence and self-awareness.

They’re not concerned with being liked. The need to be liked is born of insecurity and narcissism. It creates a need to manipulate your own and other’s emotions. Confident and authentic people are simply themselves. If you like them, fine. If not, that’s fine, too.

They can tell when others are full of it. Perhaps naïve folks can be easily fooled, but genuine people are not naïve. They’re grounded in reality and that gives them a baseline from which they can tell when things don’t add up. There’s a big difference.

They are comfortable in their own skin. In his late 70s, actor Leonard Nimoy said he was closer than ever to being as comfortable with himself as Spock appeared to be. Most of us struggle with that. As Henry David Thoreau observed, “The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.”
