stock H2's....

[guruerror]

Stock looks fine to me...I'd rather see a stock truck with a soccer mom behind the wheel then a blinged out ride.

I focus more on improving the stock configuration. Adding 'better' parts (namely tie rods, upper control arms, etc.) to make it better at what it was designed to do...go off-road; and removing things that are unnecessary (nerf bars, roof rails, etc.).

In my opinion the best visual accessory anyone can put on their truck to make it stand out is DIRT. At least then I know that they are truly 'experiencing' what this truck has to offer.

A little off subject, but the Hummer soccer moms drive me crazy. The reason being is that I carpool with a guy who owns a rubicon and on his week to drive, He's constantly getting the JEEP Wave
Now i've only gotten the Hummer wave a few times and have missed some because I thought it was a possible soccer mom and don't want to be the first one throwing the wave out there. I know, but I'm jealous of all the jeep waves.

Dude...wave at them moms...some of them are HOT. And you can always fake like you thought the ugly ones were dudes.

I get the Hummer wave here and there...more so when I'm on a road trip out of the DC area. Most of the owners around the capital seem to keep their trucks on the pavement...I think I confuse them when I roll around the beltway covered in mud...they don't even make eye contact.

Whatever...for what it's worth I'm wavin' at you right now...LOL!

AFTER THOUGHT: ...and look around you, Jeeps are like a55holes...everybody's got one. Think how tired your arm would be after a week or so of riding around waving. Hummer-waves should be more about 'quality' instead of 'quantity.'

i agree with what you said, i am the same way. i dont know how much $$ i spent on the front end of my H2 so far.. and im still not done.

to me, i guess it is a pride in your vehicle thing. i dont expect a soccer mom to be rolling on 36 inch rims, nor 37/39 inchs tires with rockstars...

but the stock look is just so plain... idk.. just one of my quirks i guess..


as for the "waves"

i have only gotten the "wave" 1 time for one of the local H2 owner.
i get alot of looks, but im unsure of thier facial expression if they are mad/jealous/constipated... as long as the speedbump they are driving gets out from in front of me, its all good...


that brings up something else....

how many times has a vehicle pulled in front of you and gone lower than the speed limit? im not saying its because im in a H2, but its funny when i pass them they have no problems doing the speed limit or higher!?!?

Think about it this way...all those stock, soccer-mom H2s will prolly be on the market in a few years when they decide to go back to their Tahoes. That's more for us 'enthusiasts' to work with when/if we wear ours out.

I think those unidentifiable looks are usually anger or jealousy...these trucks seem to 'provoke' or 'inspire,' there doesn't seem to be much middle ground. Occasionally, though, I think it's AWE but their brian just hasn't had enough time to process the appropriate facial expression.

... a few, and it's usually a hybrid.

What kills me is the F250 Super Duties with the 12" lifts that wanna race down the interstate...get a life...it's like they've 'got something to prove' when faced with a Hummer.
