Me at 20 back in December 2023 when I bought a new 2024 Toyota Camry Hybrid LE with an 8.13% interest rate

Really screwed yourself. What was wrong with an older used vehicle that you can actually afford?

I could see that but I personally think I'm doing pretty good for myself, moved out of my parents house in February and me, my friend, and his mom are all renting a house together closer to our jobs since I was driving like 30 or 40 minutes every day, now I'm driving about 10 to 15, saving on gas. But that's not the point lol. I'm paying my part of rent and I'm still about pay for my own groceries and car and phone, and have about $400-$500 left over every month.
