I have this friend who definitely defines himself by his consumption. One of the things he has wasted money in the last few years was getting expensive and expensive to repair cars. His latest was a truck that broke the first week he got it. It has an incredibly loud exhaust, probably gets 15mpg hwy and he has a 45 mile commute.

I actually just think he’s a bit of a dumb guy.

Then he tells me he wants to swap the headlight bulbs for LEDs and I said to absolutely not do that because of how the housings would scatter the light into the eyes of other drivers. I don’t know if he ever did it but he was really adamant about installing once they arrived in the mail.
