Actor Armie Hammer is selling his beloved truck after admitting he "can't afford the gas anymore"
Armie Hammer is selling his truck because he "can't afford the gas anymore".
The 38-year-old actor has revealed he bought himself the GMC pickup as a Christmas present and he "love it intensely" but he's now decided the time has come to swap it for a "tiny" hybrid because filling up was starting to cost too much money.
In a video posted on Instagram, he showed off his beloved vehicle and explained he's putting it up for sale. Armie said: "So, I’ve been back in L.A. for a couple of weeks now, this is my truck.
"I bought this for myself in 2017 as a Christmas gift for myself.
"I have loved this truck intensely and taken it camping and across the country multiple times and on long road trips, and I took it for one last road trip to CarMax [used car store].
"[This is] not an ad for CarMax. This is because I’m selling my truck. Since being back in L.A., I have put about 4 or 500 dollars worth of gas in it, and I can’t afford it. I can’t afford the gas anymore."
The 'Death On The Nile' star - who is dad to daughter Harper, nine, and son Ford, seven, with his ex-wife, Elizabeth Chambers - admitted he has fond memories of the truck but is looking forward to a fresh start.
He added: "I mean, this truck, it took the kids home from the hospital and all that stuff. Amazing trips, but you know what, that's okay.
"I've got a new car. It's tiny. It's a hybrid. I'm probably going to put about 10 bucks of gas in it a month and this is it. Here's to new beginnings. It’s my birthday tomorrow.”
Armie insisted he will be starting his birthday "in a new car, in a new apartment, in a new life in Los Angeles".
It comes after Armie recently admitted his Hollywood career imploded after he was hit by a string of allegations in 2021, including emotional abuse, manipulation, and rape – and the infamous accusation he harboured fantasies of cannibalism.
The actor - who denied the claims against him - explained his career slump during an appearance on the 'Painful Lessons' podcast, saying: "It killed me, it killed my ego, it killed all the people around me that I thought were my friends that weren’t - all of those people, in a flash, went away.
“But the buildings were still standing. I’m still here, I still have my health, and I’m really grateful for that."
