I really need a new vehicle since my current sports car doesn't allow me to live life like i fucking want

Buy one of these and daily it.
This isn't really something we can decide for you. If it were me and I KNEW it would only be one more year of not having the fun I wanted, I'd save for the house instead of buying the off road vehicle, but that's me and I have other hobbies to distract myself with. If you go the saving money route, find a cheaper hobby that you actually enjoy to make life not so shit.
I'm actually going to be making more money next year, a lot more
The thing is I need downtime and have some fun in my life, I'll be able to afford the off road vehicle and I'm sure this is something that will change my life

Long term? Save some money up and buy a house. The environment you create for yourself determines your day to day mindset more than your daily driver. That being said, I would buy a house for 100k and pay it off in less than 10 years and spend the rest on vacations in a Toyota Land Cruiser.
Oh and the housing market is gonna crash again. I wouldn't be buying an expensive house in a seller's market.
buy a house. get out from renting as soon as possible provided you can put at least 20% down and finance for 15 years.
I'm in Thornton, CO
I'm sure I can find a house out here for 300k next year
You think market will crash and cheaper houses?
Denver area seems to be increasing
Save and buy the house OP. I know you really want to try off-roading, but I promise you that becoming a property owner and making a home for yourself will be more rewarding in the long run.
Rather than waste your money on dumb shit like drugs and alcohol now, use any and ALL free time learning skills. Better yourself. Go to the gym, learn to play the markets, play chess, anything. Make a hobby of something that's inexpensive but will increase your self-worth and self-esteem. The best would be finding a hobby you enjoy that allows you to create something of value (carpentry, metal working, sewing, etc) so you can make money or at least break even with your hobby, but I realize not everyone has the same joys in life. But whatever you choose to do, STAY THE PATH and buy that house. Two or three years from now you'll look back and realize the decisions you're making now will have made you a better human than you thought possible.
Finally, if the sports car doesn't make you happy, sell it and buy something that does. An econobox, a land barge, or a cheap small truck with rust to fix would probably help with both points.
I'm not your typical Veeky Forums poster
I'm successful and will be dropping 80k down payment on a house
I'm doing well, I just don't think I can wait another year for a house or new vehicle
