In a new video posted to hisInstagramaccount on Tuesday, Aug. 27, theHouse of Hammersubject, 37, revealed that he’s selling his beloved truck for a more cost-efficient.

“So, I’ve been back in L.A. for a couple of weeks now, this is my truck,” he began in the selfie clip.

“I bought this for myself in 2017 as a Christmas gift for myself,” the actor said of his 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Pickup. “I have loved this truck intensely and taken it camping and across the country multiple times and on long road trips, and I took it for one last road trip to CarMax.”

Hammer insisted that his video was “not an ad for CarMax” as he panned the camera to show the company’s sign before getting into his vehicle for the last time.

“This is because I’m selling my truck. Since being back in L.A., I have put about 4 or 500 dollars worth of gas in it, and I can’t afford it. I can’t afford the gas anymore,” Hammer confessed.
