Richard Jordan had everything he was told to want: cars, a house, a fiancé. Then his fiancé left him. So he sold everything, bought a Lamborghini Gallardo and set out across America.
This is his amazing story.
It’s a love story, but not a conventional one. Oh sure, there’s a woman. There always is. But it’s when the woman split that the real romance began. Richard Jordan lost love, then found it again in an exotic Italian sports car and the American road. Jordan’s journey would take him across the country and back again repeatedly as he racked up nearly 100,000 miles in a car so expensive most owners rarely drive them at all.
It was early 2006 and Jordan’s version of the American dream lay crumbled at his feet. After giving his girlfriend of five years a ring and a house in a north Texas suburb — a home purchased with the proceeds from selling his metal-fabrication business, his home and a few of his cars — she left him.
“I bought us the house and planned on moving in and as soon as I did, she left,†Jordan says. “So, I got stuck in a house I didn’t want, in an area I didn’t want to be in…. It was kind of emotionally traumatic. So I bought the car and wandered around.†- complete story at
