    2017 Toyota Tundra Crewmax with Diamondback bed cover. My first brand new car ever. It replaced a 1997 Tacoma 4x4 that I drove for about 12 years. I have always tried to be frugal with vehicle purchases but I wanted something unmolested that I knew the history of.

    Good for you. I don't care what Dave Ramsey says, I buy new vehicles. For work it's a little different, I usually have 7-8 trucks/vans and we drive them into the ground so long term (cost per year) it's not as much with no maintenance up front. On the personal side I grew up with no money and s*** cars and God's been good to me, new vehicles are a luxury I can afford. I'm not a baller, I've only got one (my wife's 4Runner, I just drive a work truck everywhere), but still.

    What is something expensive you don't regret buying?

    Our house. Expensive and we use the crap out of it. Love it.

    Jones bikes steel diamond frame with truss fork. Many great adventures.

    ~2013 Rock Shox Pike 29" through axle fork. This fork seemed stupid expensive, but revolutionized technical riding for me with its incredible stiffness and damping.

    Used BMW Z3 play car. Total unnecessary luxury and a huge mental blessing.

    Many pairs of Danner boots over the last 20 years. They saved my feet, and I continue to wear them. We bought a new Honda Accord four years ago. We splurged, and it's been great. My wife loves expensive purses and shoes, and I enjoy shopping with her and buying these items.
    I've owned a large number of fine firearms and first class reloading equipment. I'm enjoying giving away some of the guns and much of the reloading equipment. Anybody have a son or daughter that would like to reload but can't swing the purchase? If so, contact me.

    A good wench can keep you going in otherwise impassable spots!

    Forgot to mention: PRK (e.g., LASIK). Best money I ever spent.
