The Hater I posted above said These are not happy turn your back on them words! Wait till it happens to you Quick. You said you're from Seattle, wait till you show up in your new Hummer. I live in Portland, I know what the freaks out here are like, and it's sad. If I had been standing there, I probably would have hit him with my fire extinguisher. My girlfriend was just stunned. I felt aweful for her.

Good point. I will have to wait and see when I have an encounter. Lot's of city Hummers in my area of Florida so not to many problems.

I'm not going to assume everyone that makes a comment about my ride deserves a response. Alot of ppl have the intent of pissing you off and when they do it makes them feel good. These ppl feed off of that response . So I choose to ignore them.

But I could have first hand experience one of these days so until then I will read and learn.

I would ask campus security if they have cameras in that parking lot then show it to the police.

It always amazes me, and pisses me off, that the H2 is a target. I have been confronted a few times. Fortunately around here there are plenty of trucks and suv's in the parking lot. When somebody ask me about the mileage, I just point to the closest pickup or suburban and tell them the same as those. That usually helps them with their uninformed opinion. If I am still getting a dirty look or a sneer I ask them why they are not talking to the owner of one of those cars that have the same economy, some costing nearly as much and by far more of them on the road. I also point them to a Range Rover if they want something more expensive to pick on with similar mileage, at least based upon a friends RR mileage. I know my D90 mileage is just slightly better than my '03 H2 was but nobody ever picked on it.

Once they realize that the mileage is not a lot different than half of the other cars in the parking lot, at least around here that is the ratio, they usually slink away. Some are just bitter, jealous idiots and just use poor information to justify their attitude.

They always talk about the air pollution that we, (H2) owners are polluting the air. The other day here in Chicago, some dumb as* comes up to me and starts barking about that issue.... so, I then take him over to the driver side of the vehicle and I point to him this sticker on my windshield. The sticker reads that "my vehicle meets all state air pollution and I'm in no violation of any code."

He then walks away with his tail between his legs and moves on.

Here in Chicago, if you own a vehicle for at least 4 years, YOU HAVE to take the vehicle in for a pollution test to make sure it complies. Once it passes, then you don't have to test it for another 4 years. Its called "Air Team"
