What kind of a money-grubber are you?!
Cars cost five digits because they are complicated machines that need to transport people safely and efficiently. An engagement ring is a token of a pledge to marry. Practically speaking, an engagement ring could be that 99-cent plastic jewel ring you saw in a discount store; it's up to the fiance and fiancee to invest the ring with meaning.
Why do you want to break your fiance's financial back? Give him a break, already! Unless he's Bill Gates or Donald Trump, accept a three- or four-digit ring from him (I mean a ring costing a few hundred or a few thousand dollars), and spend the big bucks on your rent, food, and so forth during your marriage. If he's really poor, and if you really love him, why not opt for a two-digit ring (one costing, say, $50 or $80)?

The car gets you from A to B. The car carries the groceries. The car gets up the steep hill. The car gets you to work on rainy days.
All an engagement ring does is make your left hand heavier than it was before.
Love shouldn't need an engagement ring the size of Gibraltar on your hand to prove it. If it does then I am sorry to say you need to re-evaluate your priorities.
If it is to show off how rich he/you are to your mates then I would get in the car and drive off and not come back personally.

My ex wife's engagement ring cost in excess of $20k, I drove a Ford Expedition at the time... The ring cost more especially taking into consideration I got it from a friend that owns a diamond mine in S. America. It was a Marquee, so you have to pay for the full stone before it gets cut.
She had an affair for 6 months during our marriage, I never got the ring back. I think this may explain why...

Do you really need an expensive engagement ring? I think the average price of a ring is between $2500-$10,000. Anything in the range is totally acceptable. Really it just matter that your husband-to-be loves you and wants to spend the rest of his life with you. Be thankful.

It's not the cost of the ring, it's what the ring means to the both of you. He will change his car, but the engagement ring means commitment.

Because how much the ring actually cost shouldn't be important. It is after all a symbol at the end of the day. Jesus, who would worry about stuff like that? I would be happy to be making a commitment with the man I loved.

The cost of the ring is not important - it's the meaning and understanding that it stands for. If all one is worried about is how much their ring costs, they don't have any business getting married as they will probably never be fully satisfied with anything. Love matters most.

If my wife was that materialistic when we got engaged her *** would have been kicked to the curb. It's not the size of the rock, but the commitment and love behind it. If you care about the size if the diamond the only thing you love is money and you don't deserve to get married

Good question. I love my car. If my fiance was to ask me that an expensive ring would be as good as bought.
