That's probably true. If they can't have it they try and ruin it for us all. I've had tahoes and yukons and yeah the Hummer is definitely different

Ignorance...mainly. Most of the negative comments that I've heard/read are based on nothing more than what the individual themselves has 'heard/read' from one source or another...and the only information that is typically circulated about anything these days is negative and biased.

On the few occasions where I've had the opportunity, and actually cared enough, to correct such a person with factual evidence they've back down with "Oh, really? I didn't know that." It never ceases to amaze me how people will open their mouth and spout out 'facts' without a lick of knowledge/experience on a subject. My step-father used to call that "talkin' out your a55."

^exactly. I've looked at other sites who are stating their hummer "facts" and its so far from the truth. As mentioned above most of these morons have no clue how the H2's are even built or by who for that matter. Luckily here in AZ I've never had any issues with mine since I've had it and have actually had compliments from other drivers on the road.

Fact of the matter is they are awesome vehicles, very capable all while being pretty darn comfy.

Most of it is gone, the people board themself to death over it, I have had some dumb little kids get behind me once and start flicking me off, but i kinda gave them a nut check by going from 60 to 0 in a second.

Another time I got flicked off on the highway.... probably cause I cut someone off.... maybe <.<......>.>

In all fairness, we get that same hate within our own Hummer community. It's sad to say, but very true.

They have a whole site dedicated to H2 hate: FUH2.com

Funny, the biggest complaints they have about it is that its a gas guzzler, is dangerous to other drivers because of the raised bumpers, and they think theres some kind of magic tax loophole you get from buying one

It mostly seems like envy to me, kind of like the occupiers who think rich people are evil

I've had pretty much all complements, but in Texas trucks are very popular, with many much larger than the Hummer.

I have a friend with a 4X4 Ford Excursion with a 6" lift. Parked next to it my H2 looks like a Toyota FJ Cruiser.

...and you wonder why they bad mouth the hummer! Do not feed the mosnsters by commiting ignorant act in the streets. You slamming on the brakes only adds to the negativity of the H2's.

I think I got called a nazi,pussy and a liberal for the same comments in another thread regarding the same issue, so expect the onslaught at any moment now
