I do honestly feel that I'll end up owning at least 30-40 cars and trucks before I'm 35. About to be on number 3.

We don't like car payments so we get our money's worth out of them.

If you have the money to pay for it, I saw who cares? There's nothing wrong with wanting something new and exciting to drive.

You have already covered what I was going to say...

The Maths! THEY HARD!
