That truck cost more than my bachelor's degree and car combined… And Acura is just luxury Honda. Japanese automakers like to have luxury brands separate from the main one. Buying an Acura (Honda), Lexus (Toyota), or Infiniti (Nissan) should be assumed out of the question unless you can afford a BMW, Cadillac, or any other classic luxury car. And honestly pickups that you don't need for work should be seen the same way, but moreso. And yeah even if it is for work like here it should be analyzed as a business expense not a nice car that'll definitely actually make you money, no, you run the money like any other capital investment for heavy machinery, with a bit of extra leeway as it's also your company car.
