I wouldn't buy it, drive it, or wear it, but he's one of my all-time favorite Tigers, so hope he's lovin' it.

DW is a legit baw. Rides horses and drives a big arse truck. He might as well be a redneck.

Judging by his life choices, he’s one generation and his grandkids are back to welfare.

$7.3MM per year on a 4 year contract means you can afford a ridiculous truck.

Perspective.
If you plan on working a 30 year career making $200,000 per year, your untaxed earnings will be about 35% of what DW will have earned in 4 years after taxes. And that’s assuming you pay no taxes and DW pays 40%.

Let’s say that truck is $300,000 dollars cash. You would have paid 5% of your lifetime OT Baller pre-tax earnings. DW would have paid 1.7% of the 17.58 million post-tax dollars that he would have made in 4 years.


TLDR: $29 million is a hard-to-comprehend amount of money for working stiffs. If DW blows through his money, it won’t be because of a truck.

Nice truck, would drive. Would prefer smaller monochromatic rims (all red or all black rims, with less rim diameter and more tire sidewall).

Everyone saying “he’s going to go broke” based on this truck is an idiot. Let’s say it’s a 200k truck. Between signing bonus (paid up front) and first year salary, he made 20 million. That’s one percent. If you got a 100k bonus this year, would a thousand dollar beater truck cause you to go broke? Let’s say a million dollar bonus. Would a 10k used truck bankrupt you?

He also owns a horse farm, so he might even own the truck as a farm truck/business vehicle, with additional tax benefits/depreciation. I don’t know if he has local sponsorships (I know Justin boots sponsors him, but that’s national), but I’m guessing he got a deal in exchange for local Ford dealership ad spots. The customization was likely free or highly subsidized by White advertising said custom shop (if not directly, then certainly indirectly on social media).
