Wow....Great story here! I do give him respect for doing what he did. Im soo tired of hearing people say Fail or he's dumb for doin this or that. Seriously we all need to take a breath and think,this is life and as weird as it sounds we come and go at any time. Live life to your fullest and just enjoy it! Heck for all you know he could be sick and its his time now to do something he may not ever get a chance to do. Props to him!

Firstly, I wonder why everyone thinks this is so strange - I know of at least a few people who use exotics as their daily driver. These cars have come a long way in terms of build quality. I wonder about this reporter at Jalopnik who thinks its so amazing that a Gallardo gets driven - its a great car but not a collector's car by any stretch. And I love the part where he wrote that a Gallardo is "one of the most expensive vehicles on the market." I mean really, was that necessary? Was he worried his readers might mistake the Lamborghini for being hellava cheap?

If you read through the replies someone calls him out saying they know him personally and the story is complete BS. And I will have to agree. He has no money but look at the storage area and the tool box the tickets are in. He is obviously not hurting. The story goes on to say he is starting a new motorcycle and superbike shop which would make sense of the nice shop area. Where is that money coming from??? Sorry, doesnt add up to me.

Under that article someone post this...
[ 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? ] Don't know if its true or not now...8( I was really excited..
