In 800 hours in the KR and 500 hours in the Tripacer I've never had a
problem that caused me to cancel a flight or stranded me away from
home base, not even a flat tire. Lucky or what?

I guess I should clarify that I've had problems like a broken primer
line on the Tripacer that needed a quick fix before a cross country and
a leaking fuel line away from home base, easily fixed, and on the KR I
left a switch on twice that ran the backup battery down and replaced
before flight, an open ground on the avionics buss that killed all
avionics before a flight to the KR Gathering at Richmond, Kentucky.
That was quickly repaired with the addition of a new ground wire. I've
just never had a failure of "consequence" in flight in any aircraft that
I've flown. Maybe I should quit while I'm ahead.
