Anyone have a copy of that Discovery Channel Hummer Documentary?
 
Figures, I had it TiVod for the longest time till somehow it deleted itself. I don't see it on the guide as being aired again anytime soon. I'd LOVE to get a copy of it if someone has it and can hook a brother up? :D

I don't know where you could get it. I could watch it again and describe it for you though, maybe.

seems like those clips are not the full versions....i wonder if you can buy a dvd of the program?

RazM 04-29-2007 12:38 PM

Re: Anyone have a copy of that Discovery Channel Hummer Documentary?
 
From what I've seen in those clips, I don't think I'd want to see the full version...

The moment they started describing the H2 as being built off a Tahoe, and insinuating that the H3 is a ride for women or "girly men", my stomach turned. The H2 and H3 don't get the cred they deserve as off-road vehicles in this joke of a production.

Does GM even review this crap before they give it a thumbs-up?

:twak:

Re: Anyone have a copy of that Discovery Channel Hummer Documentary?
 
i watched the whole show when it aired on TV and it was quite interesting, parts of it, like the comments about the ties to the Tahoe didnt sit well with me either. I liked the show since we rarely if ever get to see anything hummer related on tv or otherwise.

I am not sure if its the price tag, the people who uses these vehicles as road queens, or the "green" people who just dont understand. But this vehicle, that gets just about as good of fuel milage as a Ford F150, and the same as a Ford Excursion, gets a bad rap for nothing more than its looks and stature.

Forgive me if I offend anyone, but there is a lady in my town with a Black hummer, all decked out in chrome. She has the big chrome HUMMER on the rear bumper, and to top it off, a large chrome HUMMER sticker on the front windshield. Like people do not know its a hummer, and to me, she just wants to flaunt it. That , IMHO gives that rest of us a bad rap. We are looked at as people with something to prove, and *******s.

My Jeep, a small light weight vehicle, gets areound 12-14 MPG, and no one has said Boo about it, and very few hate them... Why? Well they are cheap, rustbuckets, anyone who wants one can get one.....can....

The H3, a more capable offroad rig in my area due to tight trails, is called a womans machine... probably due to the H2's rep as being a car for the small penis people...

It makes me sick!:lame:

Yeah, some lady with chrome on her Hummer gives us a bad name. Give me a break. Just cause you may not like to fix yours up doesn't mean that people who do are the "bad" Hummer owners. And the last time I looked around there are a lot more vehicles out there that are fixed up as well. Those damn Scions! They're evil!

So you would put a very large chrome sticker accross your windshied that says HUMMER and feel good about it? Not feel like your flaunting.....:violin:

Re: Anyone have a copy of that Discovery Channel Hummer Documentary?
 
Just checking it out and that is indeed the show i was looking for. Can't figure out why the clip menu states the full length of each clip, yet they are limited to like 2:30 per clip!!! I want the whole thing!!!!

So close yet so far away!!!!!1

Different strokes for different folks. I'm sure someone out there will think you are "flaunting" it if you modify it at all. Chrome rims, off-road gear, blacked out... They might even think you are flaunting it if you leave it stock like you have nothing to prove...

Who the hell cares? If you are worried about getting a bad rap for driving a Hummer, maybe you shouldn't be driving one.

I wouldn't put one on because I don't care for them. But if I wanted one yeah I'd be proud of it. I'm not ashamed because I own a Hummer, no one should, whether they're blinged out or stock. And I see plenty of Chevy, Ford, etc., stickers and no one thinks they are bad people. If you don't like them then divert your eyes. :crying:

If you were here a few months ago, there was a guy in Durango, Co that sold his H3 because the locals were flipping them off, and acting like they were shooting his family with thier hands. Its a town that most hummer owners in that thread were avoiding and not giving business...

People who are against these machines tend to pick out the ones that are modified over the edge in thier opinion. I feel that they would target someone who has thier rig decked out as I described earlier....

Totally my opinion.... and I do feel that some of thise vehicles give others a bad taste to hummer owners.:lame:

Here is a picture of his H3. It doesn't seem to be modified at all. Certainly no chrome Hummer logo on the windshield to provoke any rage.

I never meant to imply that he was any was modified. People live in different areas, and in different circumstances.... What I said was simply my area and circumstance.... You guys want to take it to heart, have at it... Im done /rant

Re: Anyone have a copy of that Discovery Channel Hummer Documentary?
 
Before I got the chance to ride in and drive a H2, espically off-road....I too would tell my friends that are owners "its just a tahoe with 35" tires". Shame on me. Now I know. What really proved it to me was that big snow storm here in CO. Myself and my Fiance drove from Greeley to Lousville in that storm, and were one of the only vehicles not stuck. I did manage to get stuck once but it was due to me going somewhere I shouldnt have and the front mounted winch got me out.

What an amazing vehicle. I felt safe in that storm. What a Vehicle that in stock form I was able to get through that storm! Hummer!!!!

I will send the full thing to whoever can make me the best offer. Just so no one offends me, I'll spare you the embarrassment and tell you right now, I'm looking for something in the H1 range for it...

P.S. -- You should really take advantage of the Discovery/Travel Channel "show you just viewed, on DVD" whatnot after it airs. They don't sell 'em forever!

I had that dang thing for the longest time on my TiVo and should have just backed it up to DVD then. I'm gonna keep looking for it. I cant understand why they dont sell it on their website tho.

You did offend me. From now on please refer to it as an African-American Hummer. Unless, of course, it's a black Hummer from Romania, then please call it an African-Romanian Hummer. If it's a black Hummer, and you have no idea what it's origins are, please either don't refer to the color at all or call it an African-Hummer-of-Unidentified-Origins-But-Clearly-Not-White-South-African-or-Mediteranian-African-Hummer. Please, let's try to be a little more sensitive here.

Here is a summary of that portion of the show... including the fat ugly woman comparing herself to a Hummer.
