Re: News Week Article on Love to Hate the Hummer
I agree that a lot of it is jealousy. After over 3 years of owning Hummers, I've found:
1. People either love or hate them - very few in between.
2. The higher the yearly income, the more they like the Hummer.
3. They all think we get 8 to 9 mpg.
4. Kids universally LOVE THE HUMMER!
5. Hummer Haters have low self esteem & below average education.
6. They feel threatened by the size and grille design when next to you on the highway.
7. After a ride in a Hummer, the haters are much more prone to be quiet. We did this at an off road outing in the Ozarks where there were some Hummer haters gathered in the staging area, and those that road in the H1s came back truly speechless.
