FINALLY get to go see one

[HummerNewbie]

Ok, couldn't get over to the dealer yesterday so I went this afternoon. I really do like it but the items that others have complained about are bothering me a little too. First the pedals. I wear size 13 shoes and I did find myself catching the brake pedal almost every time I pulled my foot off the gas. I really don't think this would be a big deal as I think you would get used to the pedals and change your foot positioning a little. As far as HP goes, didn't really get a chance to test it out but could tell a big difference from the V8 I drive right now. It did seem to do alright but again, I never really had to get out in front of someone. There is plenty of leg room in the drivers seat. I am 6'2" and didn't even need the seat back all the way. There is only one other car I can recall having that much leg room and it was a $100K vehicle. Not bad IMO. The one I drove was a Red Lux with off road suspension. It had pretty much all the bells and whistles you can get from the factory as well as brush guard and side steps. I misquoted earlier, the price was $38,955. They had been holding it for me to come look at but I just called and told him I didn't want that one. I am still going to wait for the blue and it also had a bunch of items that I really didn't care to pay them for anyway. I think I am going to start looking more seriously at the H2 while waiting. One of the things I feel in love with about the Hummers is its imposing size. It just isn't there in the H3. Don't get me wrong, it was hard to walk away from that beautiful red one today. I am going to look for a 03 or 04 H2 that I can get for about the same money and the depreciation should be better. Just my thoughts on it.
