Armie Hammer can no longer afford to put gas in his truck.

The actor, 38, took to social media on Tuesday (Aug. 27, 2024) to share a lengthy video filmed in a CarMax parking lot detailing his decision to part ways with his beloved vehicle.

Hammer, who reportedly resided in the Cayman Islands after his divorce from Elizabeth Chambers was finalized in June 2023, said. “I got a new car, it’s tiny, it’s a hybrid, I’m probably going to put about ten bucks in gas in it a month.”

“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’ve taken it on one last road trip… to CarMax,” Armie said in the video.

“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 $400 or $500 worth of gas in it and I can’t afford it. I can’t afford the gas anymore. 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. So, August 28, I will be starting my birthday in a a new car, in a new apartment, in a new life in Los Angeles,” Armie added.

While speaking to his car, he said, “Thank you very much. You have gotten me a long way and I appreciate it all. I hope you take as good of care of the next person.”

He concluded by saying, “I just keep telling myself that parking is going to be easier and gas is going to be cheaper.”
