That includes a Mark V Special Operations Craft, which he said he purchased from the Navy. It is the fastest boat ever built by the force, he said, with a little over 5,000 horsepower."It was designed specifically for Navy SEAL insertion and extraction missions," he said. "It runs really fast, and it's a lot of fun."Luckey still has the real M2 heavy-barreled 50 BMG machine gun that came with the boat, but keeps fake ones fitted "most of the time," he added."Most of my neighbors like it, and a handful hate it," he said.UH-60 Black HawkPalmer Luckey TK TKKevin Carter/Getty ImagesLuckey's passion for the military started when he was young, he told Chang."I grew up watching the Marine Corps practice right offshore in their helicopters," he said. "Watching Navy ships do exercises gets in your brain, and it doesn't leave."He's now the proud owner of six helicopters, including a UH-60 Black Hawk, which he posted a photo of on X in 2023.This is my Blackhawk: pic.twitter.com/RJx1PRzWUB— Palmer Luckey (@PalmerLuckey) November 26, 2023 1967 Disneyland Autopia carPalmer Luckey TK TK.Hafalia, Liz/The San Francisco Chronicle via Getty ImagesLuckey owns a 1967 Disneyland Autopia car that was used in Disney theme parks and designed by legendary park designer Bob Gurr and Walt Disney himself."As far as I know, mine is the only complete Autopia that is outside of the parks. Mine has the original mechanicals, original gearboxes, original wheels, the whole deal," Luckey told Chang.The small vehicle, typically seen tearing up Disneyland racetracks, suffered a minor breakdown mid-interview and had to be fixed with a flathead screwdriver.1985 ex-Marine Corps HumveePalmer Luckey TKKayla Bartkowski/Getty ImagesIn his interview with Chang, Luckey said that he owned a 1985 ex-Marine Corps Humvee.He owned the Humvee while he worked at Facebook, The Wall Street Journal previously reported.

Two of those purchases were cars."The first thing that I did when I got a bit of money was buy a [1969 Ford] Mustang convertible," Luckey said. "Then, I bought a Tesla Model S, which I think is the best overall car made in the entire world."Parking his cars has been more challenging. In 2024, Luckey sued the elevator contractor and the construction company behind his garage, alleging that the building's four-car lifts were faulty, per Forbes. Luckey's lawyer told the outlet that he was once stuck in the elevator.Submarines and motorcyclesPalmer Luckey TK.YAMIL LAGE/AFP via Getty ImagesLuckey also owns "a couple of submarines" and a "fleet of motorcycles," per the Los Angeles Times.The tech billionaire owns these vehicles through various LLCs, the LA Times reported.
