My wife was driving our H1 the other day. While heading down a multi-lane street, a "car" pulled along side her....and honked.

Assuming it was a friend saying hi, she looked over and the male owner, flipped her the finger.

Our little Eco-Warrior....was driving a...

Suburban.

He obviously, doesn't know our H1 gets about 4-5 MPG more than his Suburban.

Or maybe someone that owns an H1 is giving his wife some extra action.

Yes, I've just started to encounter some animosity for hummers now that I'm joining groups in hopes of hooking up with some trail-riding partners. On Colorado4x4.org, a guy with a Toyota FJ40 referred to the H1 as a "gas-guzzling pig". I get 16 on the highway and off-road, I can idle over stuff all day on half-a-tank. Being new here, I guess I'll post my hopes for hooking up in this "general" category??

We'll let you know the next time we have a day trip planned.

Damn, that's screwed up.

As Dan Micks put it: "H1's are big, loud, they smell bad...what's not to like!"

The HML/web forum on http://www.humvee.net is the friendliest forum IMO.

Amen to that! If I wanted a small, cute, good on gas CAR, I'd own a Suzuki Swift. Oh that's right, I do...

Re: The Ultimate Hypocrite
 

Me too, my wife is planning to get one maybe next year. It's good for bonding with our only son.

Re: The Ultimate Hypocrite
 

I am now preparing to start the canvassing of a cheap Swift this afternoon. I'll be back later.
