I am going to have to join sdrealtor in peeing on this parade, my only friend that owns a hummer actually owns it along with his house and a couple of rentals and his fixed income portfolio outside of his day job pays him well into the six figures yearly. Based on his income and assets, his 40k hummer (he bought it used) actually represents a smaller portion of his worth/income than if I drove a Pinto. You could follow him home trying to find a foreclosure and if you got past security you’d find he drives the cheapest car in his neighborhood. He and his wife don’t use credit cards, don’t even own atm cards and yet they drive the modern day stereotype of leverage, go figure.
