I'm actually pretty sure I'm paranoid: at night, while I'm trying to get to sleep, if I hear any creak or bump, I jump out of bed, heart pounding, to search my house and make sure all doors/windows are locked before I go back to bed.
Recently, it's gotten so bad that I actually have to sleep listening to music. D:
I only count steps if I'm not in a hurry and there are a lot of them.

I actually sort of do something similar, except I never get out of bed to check. I hear noises and then I basically listen out for the noise again, then when it makes the noise again, I try figure out what it is, then it takes me forever to get to sleep.

People don't steal trucks? (It's nice, if you are getting at it being a pos). Judging from some of your other purchases, it wouldn't be too far off base to call it a POS.

It's like my parents' house. We left it unlocked all the time. There was probably 50k of musical equipment/instruments in there, plus the electronics. But the outside looked like crap, so we never got robbed.

My dad bought it for me, I didn't buy it, and I'm pretty sure he knows a LOT more about vehicles than any of you (just a guess, I could be wrong). And you obviously havent seen my truck either:  fixed.

For what it's worth, I don't think his truck is a POS. I've always quite liked those trucks because they are dependable, tough lil things. While I think the 4.3L needs more power... it's got enough where it counts.

They might not have enough for the regular, but Mine is the Vortec High Output, plus it has a chip & K&N Filter on it. Pushes over 200HP. Plenty for what I need  ...only 200?

I don't count, but I subconsciously avoid stepping on cracks. I also have this weird thing with locks where I have to check to make sure they are locked three times before leaving them. I also will freak if I get dirty and wash my hand habitually, often going to the bathroom only to wash my hands. I also won't leave my room without socks on (not really OCD, but I do get upset if I have to take them off ever). I think those are clear signs of OCD since most of them can be explained as some kind of ritual. I have been non-officially diagnosed (since I haven't talked directly to the person) as having OCD my the mom of a friend. She's a psychiatrist so I guess it makes it more valid. However it doesn't surprise me because I already suspected it. I remember that when I was a kid I used to check the locks until the checking was "perfect". It could take 1 try, or even 10. However one day I decided to stop doing it and I rarely (once per year maybe) do it now. But on the other hand I have a lot of other OCDness manifested as rituals. I have a bunch of rituals for a lot of situations. ~Hechizero

Actually, I was just gonna note my surprise at seeing him, really. That's all. *derailment*
