If an F80 is your dream car and you can make it work, go for it. If buying an F80 would put you in a really bad spot financially, then it might be a good idea to keep saving for one.

This has always been my mentality as well; finding that happy medium of saving for retirement, having cash on hand, while also enjoying life at the same time. I don't understand those on the extreme sides of the spectrum like penny-pinching everything for retirement or living the YOLO lifestyle.
