My next door neighbor's 27 year old son has a 2023 Raptor... and is moving back in with them this weekend because he wants to save up for a down payment for a house. He says he can't "get ahead" paying rent on an apartment and paying storage fees for his dirt bikes and ATV so, its the only way he'll ever be able to afford a house.
Go figure.
I just want to go for a thrill ride. Never been in a vehicle with that kind of horsepower.
I'm not one to judge but those wants screw up a better retirement. This couple are late 20's, early 30's, no kids and are both Pharmacist professionals. I'm guessing they are grossing $300k. They can probably afford a nice toy.
Lord knows I've been out on a limb before living beyond our means at times. Eventually you have to buckle down.
It gets much more difficult if a household doesn't have a significant income.
