Richard Jordan had everything he was told to want: cars, a new house, and a fiancee. Then his fiancee left him (not really). So he (claims he) sold everything, bought a Lamborghini Gallardo and set out across America. This is his amazing story pile of steaming bullshit.

I wanted to like the guy, but by the end, I wanted to throw raw chicken and pork products at him instead.
Man this guy did it totally wrong, should have traveled the world...
He should have taken advice from the guy who spent all his millions on partying and women...

I think some of the comments made by people that said they know him probably more accurate than this guys story.
Um, he dresses and looks like a 14 year old. No wonder his wife left him.
Poor guy.

He sounds like a pretty big douchebag to me.
His car implies a shortcoming.
Apparently it's all bullshit. I guess the stunt pissed off his parents so they won't fix his car, but he has plenty of others... just not as nice. BTW, if he had serviced the car properly it would still be working.

Car repairs costs are proportional to the cost of the car's production. He probably couldn't afford the $400 oil changes and $2000 service visits.
Fool, money, parted.
yeah not like Juffy Lube has a filter for a Lambo...

read the comments below the article, buddy cals him out for it all being bullshit
If you sell all your possessions, the last thing you want to get is a Lambo. What you want is a
Lotus Elise. Corners like a dream, much cheaper to run, and it doesn't matter that it's not as fast because you aren't allowed to go that fast anyway.

Some truth about this story:
Richard Jordan has taken Matt Hardigree on a ride with a ton of lies here. He never sold all of his possessions or spent his "life savings" to set out on the open road or to buy the Lamborghini (OR any of the other luxury cars and bikes he's been afforded over the years).
Where to start with this pile of madness? He sold his metal fabrication business?! WHAT business? What was the name of this alleged business and to whom did he sell it and when? For that matter, WHAT JOB? And he took to the highway, living hotel to hotel after his fiancee left him???! The timeline in this is whack. He bought her a Corvette AFTER he bought the Lamborghini (and also after he bought the Hummer H1 and the Audi A4 AND the Ford F-650 AND the Cadillac and whatever else that he purchased within that five year block), and they were together for a long while afterward. What about the time he was pulled over in Indiana? Or the embarrassing time(s) he TOLD people he was Moby? The versions portrayed above of those incidents are a convoluted headache of half-truths. Witnesses were there, remember, Richard? This article leads readers to believe Mr. Jordan is some kind of nomadic Mad-Max-meets-Two-Lane-Black-Top messiah when he's really just a delusional kid who hails from extreme privilege. I'm sure his good family is floored by this hacked up mess of words.
Hell, my elderly parents have put more out-of-state miles on their car than Richard has put on this Lambo. The most driving he's done has been at 18o mph from Starbucks to Starbucks across the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex. This is SUCH an unbelievable crock. People can't possibly be reading this story, looking at the handful of pictures Richard took while on a few road trips along with the images of his new warehouse, and thinking all of this has no holes in it! Come on.
Richard, you owe Matt Hardigree a huge apology for wasting his time and for leading readers to believe you're some kind of reformed victim of love who left everything behind for some romantic, American dream. Did you think an article of this popular magnitude wouldn't be read by people who know you in real life?
God damn

Yea, somehow he's so broke he can't fix his car, but can afford to start up a new business making custom motorcycles?

Independence Day was an almost intentionally ironic choice, as he picked that day to separate from everything he'd created but now no longer wanted, including the house.
I stopped reading after this.
It's not ironic, it's appropriate.
Fuckhole.

Is that not poetic irony? A trip symbolizing one's own desire for independence begun on the nation's independence day?
Also I vote that the car guy is a douche.
Irony is the opposite of what you expect.
Example: If he got married on independence day, that's irony.

Irony would have been memorial day, because I'm gonna forget this article as soon as my brain lets me.
So other than the single comment left by this guy's supposed friend, has there been any more to substantiate the bullshit level of this story? Honestly, if the guy's story is legit, that's great.
But if it's all a fake (as I suspect it probably is) I want to see him crucified internet-style. :D

If he's a
smart English major, he'll stop making these kinds of observations after the first three times he gets his ass kicked for them.
Sixth grade was a painful year for me.
[People do need to learn what irony is, though]
