FJ Owner

[Scouts Out]

I had parked in the local parking lot down town and was half way to the bank when I saw this Yellow FJ pull in. He waited until the spot next to my H3 opened up and parked there and waited for me. For 20 mionutes he clamored how great his FJ was and how all the magazines picked it over the H3 (I pointed out that the motor trend's articles most important line was "if we had to drive the trail ourselves, the H3 would be our choice"). He talked how consumer report rated the H3 among the worst blah blah blah... As my patients were wearing down when four hot college interns from my employer walked by and came running over... They were telling me home they love the H3 , how cool it was and crawling in and all thru it. The FJ owner just stood there as they ignored him just like they did his FJ. As they left to go back to work I looked at him and simply asked, any other comments? he sheepishly walked to the bank

I had a funny experience in my H3. I was stopped at a light on a 4 lane avenue in San Jose and a brand new (no plates yet) silver shiny FJ pulled up along side. Inside the FJ was a father and his 9 or 10 year old boy. The boy kept pointing and looking at my dirty white H3. Probably the kid was telling his father he should have bought the H3. Sometimes kids know best.

I have started to see a lot of FJ's around town. They look all cute and round, but would like to see how they do off-road.

[hmrlvr]

Their like little ants here, Their everywhere. I am seeing alot more H3s as well though.

FJ's are still ugly despite popularity, in my opinion.

Every KY I've seen is driven by some alternately-lifestyled person.

[westhillsat]

We have more FJ's here than H3's - very sad.

FJ's outselling H3's, but at least the Hummer is still somewhat exclusive.

Hit the sands of Lake Michigan a few weeks back with my buddy & his FJ, I was impressed with it's abilities! Crawled the sand just fine, took deep water well, climbed hills as good as my H3...but when we hit some mud holes, that thing bottomed out real quick! No pics, but the winch was well used that day...not a lot of clearance.

I'll park my junk next to any new junk, and I guarantee you people will be crawling all over it, after all, mine has the Playground Jungle Gym built in

You forgot to mention that the four hot interns were dudes?

That reminds me of something that happened to me last week. I was parked downtown when a guy in a H3 drove by and committed that he liked my FJ so much that I could come over to his house and fuuk his sister. And just last Sunday I was at a gas station when three smoking hot stripers came out of the club next door and started crawling all over my FJ and offered to suck me off while I pumped gas.

While H3?s are a cool vehicle they just don?t get the looks anymore, I rented one last time I was in Vegas and got no noticeable looks from anyone except some tree hugger types that gave me the finger, my friends new LR3 got more looks than the H3. On the other hand weather you like the looks of the FJ or not it gets tons of attention, the contrast of the white roof is just very eye catching.

In Utah FJ's get ignored.

I was in the city (NYC) the other day helping my niece move and we had lunch and accross the street you could see a FJ through the window.The only one to turn there head and look at it was me over a 45 minute time period .


Last month I was in NYC with the H3 .I was parked in front of her building for 10 minutes and several people noticed my 3 and a few said nice truck ect,one guy seen it through his apartment window and ran outsideHe was thinking of buying one .No tree huggers in the bunch.And it was dark out at the time.

DTHVLY, gotta love your blind stupidity. The FJ's are a passing craze, which is already dying out. I see them piling up on the dealer lots. H3's on the other hand, sales just keep going up and up! 5,550+ units last month. FJ's will soon be a dime a dozen, just like the Mustang, 300, and Charger. The excitement will wear off. Now, the H3, it will remain in smaller numbers, and by the time a redesign is on the table, it will still be pretty damn cool. Just like the H2. I still get many, MANY looks, and it's been around for a long time. There's just something about a Hummer... It's like nothing else!

I guess they really like the KY because they said I didn't have to pay this time

Personally I think they are both cool vehicles overall but I just don't like the look of the FJ. It has grown on my slightly but there is still no way I would buy one. You are right in that the FJ does get a lot of looks but that does not mean they are all good. Every time I am with someone and we see one go by they look and comment on how ugly they are. Some of these people know I have an H3 and some don't so don't try to say it has anything to do with what I drive. You are also right that they white roof is eye catching but not necessarily in a good way. I can only think of one person that I know that has said they like the looks of the FJ and he is a die hard Yota fan and bought one. You seem to think that the only thing that we H3 owners care about is getting noticed. I could care less if anyone notices my H3 or not. I bought it because I love the looks of the truck and wanted something capable, not what everyone else will think. If you choose your vehicle based on the current fad that is your problem but don't assume that everyone else does too.

Okay...1) you were in Vegas. I can imagine that in Vegas, the H3 isn't exactly an eye catcher anymore. I'm sure there are more exotic cars to be googled over.

2) the white roof of the FJ is eye catching...but like Newbie said, not always a good thing. My daughter saw one the other day and asked if they forgot to paint it...granted..she's only a 4yr. old, but still. Get me?

3) I still get looks. People still question me about the H3. Interest level around "these here parts" might be higher simply b/c there are not that many Hummer's in general on the roads (and that probably has to do a lot w/ ignorance than anything)

my 2cents on this thread.

[yzergod]

I know, don't feed the trolls/ae's...

...but, until I see a FJ do the "Escalator" in Moab, I won't be impressed!

This is the shiznit right here!!!

I mean, "committed" is only similar to "commented". that he liked my FJ so much that I could come over to his house and fuuk his sister.Was his sister's name Jimbo? And just last Sunday I was at a gas station when three smoking hot stripersAgain with the spelling. I can only imagine the horror of those bovine-like skanks. You must have a salt lick attached to your KY. came out of the clubBARN next door and started crawlingDid they leave hoof marks? all over my FJ and offered to suck me off while I pumped gas.At least we know your occupation now.

While H3’s are a cool vehicle they just don’t get the looks anymoreAnd that's the most important quality for a vehicle to have. Fag., I rented one last time I was in Vegas and got no noticeable looks from anyone except some tree hugger types that gave me the finger, my friends new LR3 got more looks than the H3Maybe he's not a sloppy holed catcher like you.. On the other hand weatherAt least it's phonetically the same this time. you like the looks of the FJ or not it gets tons of attention, the contrast of the white roof is just very eye catching.Like it's covered with lots of bird sh*t.

Your delusions are reason to seek professional psychiatric help.
Also, you're a pathetic attention whore.
BTW, do you have any noteworthy wheeling pictures?
