Sweet Ride o’ Mine: Guns N’ Roses’ Slash Fights for F-150 in Divorce

Rockstar guitarist got nailed in alimony, but he gets to keep his truck. 

Guitar god and founding Guns N’ Roses member Slash recently finalized his divorce from Perla Hudson. The couple split after 17 years, and spent the last four trying to hammer out the terms of their divorce. But Slash has his in priorities in check: He got the Ford truck.

According to The Blast, Slash definitely didn’t get off easy, however. He will be paying Hudson $6 million dollars, plus $139,000 a month in alimony and child support. Gulp. However, he fought for–and won–his mighty guitar collection; which is valued at $1.92 million and includes 221 legendary axes. And he got his 2011 Ford F-150, like the model in the stock photo above.

Hudson also got a home in Los Angeles, a 2014 Range Rover, a 2015 Mercedes AMG, and a 2015 Mercedes GL 450. Eh, keep the Benz, we’ll take the truck. Although, after that payout, he might be carting around Ramen noodles.

Slash has a new album, Living the Dream, coming out this month. Check it out, he might need gas money!
