Armie Hammer is selling his truck because he “can’t afford gas anymore.”
On Tuesday, a day before his 38th birthday, he took to Instagram to post a video of himself explaining what he’s been up to since his acting career was thrown into disarray due to his scandals.
The update comes a month after he said he was “grateful” for allegations of cannibalism, sexual misconduct and a rape allegation that derailed his career in 2021.
The actor, who has not worked in Hollywood since the allegations against him surfaced, told fans he got a new “small” hybrid car because he can no longer afford the pickup truck, in a video he filmed in a CarMax parking lot.
He began his video by explaining that he returned to Los Angeles “a couple weeks ago” and plans to sell his truck so he can start his 38th year with “a new car, in a new apartment, in a new life.”

He clarified that his video was “not an advertisement” and that he was just filming an update “because I’m selling my truck.”
“Since I came back to Los Angeles, I’ve spent between $400 and $500 on gas and I can’t afford it,” he admitted.
“I can’t pay for gas anymore,” he stressed.

He explained that he had already bought a new, “small” car.
“I got a new car. It’s small. It’s a hybrid,” he said. “I’ll probably spend about $10 a month on gas and that’s it. Here’s to new beginnings.”
