Armie Hammer Sells Beloved Truck Amid Cannibalism Scandal Fallout

Armie Hammer is selling his cherished truck driven by rising gas prices and a career decimated by a cannibalism scandal. Despite past accusations and a tough battle with addiction, Hammer reflects a newfound gratitude for life and happiness. Trading his truck for a nifty hybrid, he’s showing a glimmer of hope amidst the chaos of his life.

Armie Hammer is at it again—or rather, he’s giving up the keys to his cherished truck. Yep, you heard that right. After a scandal that can only be described as the stuff of Hollywood nightmares, his beloved vehicle is hitting the market. This comes after the actor’s career took a nosedive due to allegations of some rather unsavory habits, including cannibalism. It appears the gas prices were just the final straw.

In a cheeky Instagram video shared earlier this week, Hammer lamented, “Since being back in LA, I have put about four or $500 worth of gas in [my truck] and I can’t afford it.” Apparently, this isn’t just any truck; it’s apparently the truck that’s been his sidekick on many an adventure. But hey, he’s not sulking—he’s switched to a whizz-bang hybrid that’ll cost him a mere $10 a month for petrol. Small wins, right?

Turning 38 this Wednesday, he reminisced about his truck’s storied past, which includes helping him play the role of doting dad—picking up his children after they were born in this glorious vehicle. He bought the truck as a Christmas present to himself in 2017 and feels oddly attached. “I have loved this truck intensely,” he said, and you better believe his kids won’t be thrilled about the sale either.

Hammer, who co-parents daughter Harper, 9, and son Ford, 7, with ex-wife Elizabeth Chambers, has had a rough patch since their divorce in 2020. Allegations of emotional abuse, manipulation, and more have hung over his head like a dark cloud. The actor insists, though, that all encounters were consensual, and he’s stuck to his story like glue.

His career has plummeted faster than a lead balloon. Hammer said the entire mess was akin to “an ego death, a career death” while guesting on the “Painful Lesson” podcast, and no one can argue he’s not feeling the pinch. But here’s a twist: he seems grateful for the upheaval. He claimed in June, “I didn’t feel good. I never felt satisfied.” Pockets might be empty, but it appears his zest for life is actually full.

In the midst of all this, he checked himself into a 12-step program for various addiction issues. Talk about taking the bull by the horns! Interestingly, during his recovery, there were reports claiming that Robert Downey Jr. was footing the rehab bill. Hammer swiftly blasted that rumour to bits in July.

Even as he struggles financially, he declared on the “Club Random” podcast that he’s never been more content, exclaiming, “You know what it’s taught me is that I don’t need [money] because I’ve never been happier than I’ve ever been in my entire life.” A silver lining in that cloud of scandal, perhaps? Sounds like this actor is finding his way through the chaos—for now, at least.

So there you have it: Armie Hammer is offloading his beloved truck due to sky-high petrol prices and the career carnage from his scandalous past. Despite the woes of being unwelcome in Hollywood, he’s somehow managed to find a positive outlook. Who knew selling a truck could lead to existential musings? Can his new hybrid vehicle usher in a greener, drama-free chapter? Only time will tell, but fingers crossed!
