I got pulled over for tinted windows in the front/passenger sides. He gives me warning ticket.... then starts being my buddy and asks "hows do you like your truck?" Ive been liking your truck everytime I see you down this road", "I love the blacked out look".....Then, Im thinking to myself.... you bust my balls first, and now you want to talk about my truck!! BTW.. this has nothing to do with anything, but this ease up my stress when I watched it.. http://www.youtubecom/watch?v=8AyVh1_vWYQ

Never pulled over in my '03 or my '06. My wife got a ticket in the '03 (46 in a 30 at 1 am), but she has a lead foot. I won't even mention how much over she got ticketed for in the ZR1. I think the statistics about Hummers getting more tickets is warped science and without any basis in fact. Probably thought up by the tree huggers.

Never been ticketed since I got my H2. Troopers don't usually give tickets out to people with War Veteran Plates on!

I travel back and forth on I-95 and never seen a H2 pulled over. I have seen one H3 pulled over, but that was it.

This stat is bogus to me.

I have to say I believe it, but not for the reasons they give. The only speeding tickets I have gotten in the past number of years have been in the H1 and it isn't my daily driver. This one time was really a bunch of bull. I was in the right lane going probably right under 50 in a 45 zone. The police sit in a certain spot all the time right around a sweeping turn going into a long straight bit of road. I was packed in a bunch of cars one right in front of me a bit and 2 off to the side in the left lane.

Got up to the police and he stepped out flagging down the pack of cars around me, waved the ones around me through and pointed to the side of the road for me. He was a real jerkwad, he showed me his radar and I had to double take, said I was going 64 mph. If you have ever rode in an H1 you will know it strains to go 65 mph on the express way, but this was a 45 speed limit. I asked him if he would like to hop in and see if we could go 64 mph there as there was no way I was going that fast. Needless to say I ended up with a fat ticket. Theres been other times as well, but that one really pushed my buttons. I guess Hummers stick out and get their radar dot more than others.

i agree with this one.

i ahve been pulled over a few times for speeding, but 3 of the times, i got off with a warning.. 1 time was a buddy of mine giving me sh!t, and my favorite was when i was pulled over, and the cop pulled up right behind me, then backed up and left without even getting out.. and to top it off, he waved at me when he left and gave a thumbs up!
