Wheeler's Versus Posers?

[MyxH3]

I see all this poser/yuppy accessory bull**** on this forum and quite frankly it is really turning my stomach. Did anyone buy an H3 to Actually Offroad 4x4 other than me? Incredible amounts of talk about Bling and gas cap doors that sell for $200.00 and the vanity tags in the door jams (that alone is gay to begin with) I believe in keeping my Truck Clean looking and capable for what ever I intend to do with it. I am not tryng to offend anyone but Jesus, I bought mine to wheel after all they are more capable offroad than they are at the lowrider tuner shows. I have already done more in common area's local to where I live which most of these posers would cring to take their MAll crawling soccer mom looking poser wanna be H3's will ever do. You should try the vehicle offroad they perform great. That said I speak out therefore I am. BTW they are TRUCKS, I hate reading these threads where people are referring to them as cars. I am sure the other 10% of the true offroad folks on the forum will agree.

I am getting the H3 because I love the looks and it's capabilities. I have never been into off roading but am looking forward to trying it out. As Dennis mentioned, most H1s and H2s don't go off road but to each their own. Your comment didn't offend me but when I first read it I thought you were a troll. Just came across like so many troll posts. I am glad you enjoy the H3 and are using it to its full potential. I hope more H3 owners do the same but they can do whatever they want with their vehicles. I personally am not into the bling thing either but not sure how a chrome fuel door is going to change the vehicles off road capabilities. Anyway, to each their own and post so pics of your H3 wheeling as we would love to see more of them out there.

I bought mine pretty much based on aesthetics.

I don’t do much wheeling (not to much wheeling to do on Long Island anyway) except for a few beach runs.

To be honest the idea of driving through mud or over rocks really doesn’t thrill me, (and I purchased the Adventure package) especially with a $36k vehicle. But hey that’s me, to each his own.

Don’t get me wrong I totally hear what your saying, why buy such an off road capable vehicle if you don’t plan on using it that way, different strokes for different folks I guess.

I think you have to remember this is a general H3 forum. This is the place people are supposed to be able to talk/ask/respond to any and all H3 related topics.

I guess if this were an “Off-Road or Wheeling” forum those posts would be out of place.

i bought my H3 for cargo space and to deal with snow...its a lot easier to load skis or camping gear (and people) in an SUV as opposed to a tiny sport coupe.

i've gone off-road with my old jeep when i was younger and when i feel like doing it with the H3 then i will. until then, it serves its intended purpose well.

...and if this matter upsets you this much then you need professional help!!!

Kinda funny to read your post. As my son and I were returning from the mall in my new H3, we were passed by a redneck in a lifted 4X4 covered with mud. My son asked about it and I told him that's what people who can't afford cable tv or golf lessons do for fun.

Luckily the guy missed the H3 when he spit his chew out the window, otherwise I would have had to have the valet take it to the carwash while my wife and I were at the wine tasting.

I did notice some of the beer cans bounced out of the back when he hit the curb on a turn, but I didn't see a splash so I'm sure he emptied them first. I think he must have been in a hurry to get home and watch the NASCAR race.

But, as you said, my opinion shouldn't offend anyone unless it describes them. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

There is a very small percentage H1s that find off-road.

There is a very small percentage H2s that find off-road.

Same will probably apply to the H3.

Most will never have the desire to off-road but it should not stop them from buying the vehicle they love. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Posing in an H3 or H2 is not as pathetic as a guy in a business suit with a 100k+ H1 that has never seen gravel. H1 was my first choice but seeing how rediculous my neighbor looked with his Starbucks and tie totally turned me off. That would be embarassing. So bloody happy I bought the H2.

37yr old female here and I've never been 4wheeling, but my husband and I do a lot of primitive tent camping in state forests, so we're out on dirt roads pretty often. I purchased this H3 not only cause I always loved Hummers but I felt that this one was more practical than the H2 for everyday use, yet still perfect for our frequent backwoods camping/fishing trips.

Now though, I am very interested in getting some off-road training (I don't want to make a stupid mistake my first time out) and getting this baby out there where it was meant to be.
The pics in my photo album are just some we took while camping and driving through the forest, it's only a month old, had it on the dirt last week. I can't wait until I can add some pics of a real off-road adventure!
Well, that's my 2 cents on this topic. Hummer has brought the world of off-roading to me and I'm looking forward to what's next.
