So today the guy at the auto parts place (I was picking up some Moble-1 and a filter) tells me that he likes the Military Hummer better. Weird...I don't even remember asking! But I just said - "yea, they kick ass!" Because they do! Then I make my way to DD to get an nice ice coffee when the kid in there (first thing he said to me) says "I like the Military style better." So I answer "Oh no **** - is that what you drive?" He shut it. It is hard to live in the shadows of the H1...I hope that maybe some others like the H2 as much as I love mine!
If I hear another person ask me what I get for gas mileage I am going to pop! Everywhere I go I get asked at least twice. Then some random woman comes over and asks what I pay for insurance?! I feel like it is my duty to inform the public of my life with an H2.
"Those tires are going to cost you money!" WOW thanks for that tidbit -No ****!
"How much does it cost to fill it up?" Now I just lie and say, "$150 each time!"
This one is starting to be more common, "why?" Hey why not **** bag - Sorry I didn't call you before I decided to buy this...maybe I will give your ass a shout-out next time.
"Why do you need something that big?"
To carry all my guns, silly?!
“How does it handle?”
What do you mean, I ask.
“How does it handle on the corners?!”
“Like a Lotus Esprit…it is weird, not many people know that the Hummer was actually built for high –speed corners…not off road

People are always asking me questions about my H2 as well, just don't let their ignorant questions get the best of you. Some of them are curious but many of them are simply jealous & are trying to elicit an angry response. This way they can tell both of their friends, "I'd buy myself a Hummer but the owners are all a bunch of arrogant dweebs." Don't give the uninformed masses any ammunition, just let it go, LOL. Good luck.

DRTY is for real!
I remember talking on the cell with him when I heard a girl screaming at him,
"Why would you buy that!"
He exclaimed, "What should I drive to make you happy???"
***Inaudiable****
The he continued, "What would make me happy is if you fixed that gap between your teeth honey."
I was LMAO! He has no shame.

I once had a couple of tree huggers come in to the dealership and when I asked if they needed help or if I could answer questions they snapped out "We just wanted to see this waste of a vehicle up close" I was on the clock so i had to be professional. "It is a great SUV for people who want something diffrent and off road proven" The dude was ready to verbally throw it down with waste of gas, size and all when I said "look this is my job and if your not intrested in a Hummer let me show you a GMC, or Pontiac" The female tree hugger made a noise and said were not intresed in a new vehicle. So I said thank you very much but I need to go help real customers. When they ere walking out i smiled and waved. I wanted to kcik the jerk in the nuts for wasteing my time. There are stupid people everywhere.

Nah. Carrie (her name) is not a girly girl. Damn good thing too, cause I'm broke. She'd rather blow **** up and go fishing then make me go shopping (thankfully). The great part about that pic (and the others) was that whole thing was her idea. We were having a cigarette in my garage one night, and she suggested we take some pics (the cam was in my garage too). When I took that pic it could not have been more then 35 degrees in the garage. If and when I make it out to wheel with some of you boys I'm sure you'll get to meet her, she WANTS to go wheeling. What more could a guy want? As far as I'm concerned she's a keeper. And thats exactly what I plan to do with her.

I really think that it primarily has to do with jealousy. The examples you mentioned were not people who could afford one so they have to make comments about it. Do you get comments from people driving other $40K+ vehicles, probably not. I know I don't see that around here. The others that will make comments are the tree huggers and they just don't have a clue. They are so brain washed that even if the H2 got 30mpg they would bash it just because it is big and in their opinion their opinion it must be bad for all of us. Actually, it isn't their opinion, it is the opinion of the people that told them what to think like the good lemmings they are
