I agree, people don't take into account that there are vehicles out there that get way worse mpg than a Hummer. Its just that Hummer name got stuck with the stigma that now society sees as a non-caring group of anti- environmentalist. I get the same or better mpg than alot of friend's full size trucks, but yet people always have a smart-a$$ remark to make about my Hummer and fuel cost. I always feel like saying STFU...Its coming outta my pocket.

Like a JEEP Grand Cherokee SRT-8? 11.5 MPG. But, I gotta admit, 0-60 in 4.4 is hellafun.

I know a guy near my house that just bought an 08 F-150 AWD Harley Davidson truck. He is getting 12 out of 1/2 ton pickup.

Re: 10 Worst cars of '07, or...
I get 11 out of a 5.3 Silverado. Just a bunch of fags. I love the must have a small penis line. From my experience having a big penis makes you want to show it off. Back in College I remember a Fraternity Bro that put it on a guys shoulder while we were watching a game. He was doing well for himself. He Drives a Vette. Now if I wanted to put it on someones shoulder it would have to be a Ken Doll. LOL. Having an H2 is a way to say look at my fat wallet bitch.

I hit a deer in my work truck over the weekend, so I used my h2. I got almost 14 mpg om the 150 miles trip. All highway. I thought that was outstanding.

Re: 10 Worst cars of '07, or...
You know when I read crap like that it makes me want to choke the a$$ that wrote it. What is the value in what they wrote? I've got the H2 and a Trailblazer LT, both are great vehicles.
Is the Hummer a gas hog...sure it is, but one of my buddies gets worse mileage out of his Durango!
The Hummer gets busted on since it is different, it sticks out, its easy to spot. I would suspect that most tree huggers couldnt tell the difference between a Tahoe and an Expedition to save their a$$! But since nothing else looks like a Hummer its the one thats picked on.
Its been my experience that Hummer owners and outdoorsman/women are more concerned about the environment than the environmental wackos!

Most of them don't know anything about the issue, except that they are suppossed to be against a certain issue.
