Are you purposely being thickheaded about this or are you just trying to torque me up?
 
There are many quality vehicles out there for purchase. The Hummer is not one of them. It has no redeeming qualities. That's why I don't like it. At all. The Suburban doesn't bother me. The Expedition doesn't bother me.
 
The H2 does. For all the reasons I've listed before.
 
Where does your opinion lie, Tidester? I'm assuming that you like the vehicle?

Well, not really, but someone's got to try to provide a little balance here.

Lol!!
 
Just change your name to "Devil's Advocate" then. I thought I put forward some pretty good points.
 
Let's be real. What other vehicle draws the same instinctual response as a Hummer? That's a love or hate vehicle.

That may be worthy of a whole topic.
 
Perhaps BMWs. And Jettas (both because of the oft noted stereotypical attributes of the drivers).
 
But I think you're right - the H1 and H2 are definitely poster children for the I Don't Like SUVs Why Do You crowd.
 
What happens to the image if HUMMER gets sold to Tata or Chery?

Thought about the 2 by tired_old_dave

Dreaming and wishing some time back, would it be a land cruiser or a 2. Sat in 2's but never drove one-afraid it could be addictive.
 
Wanted to say electric supercharger in prior post but haven't spent time lately on research in that area. Don't have the green autoblog bookmarked, but a google hit just discovered a recent green autoblog hit about controlled power technologies and their electric supercharger. Stored for further use.

I'm not sure if anything will happen. I wonder what TaTa sees that we don't.

It does have ties to the Military and when I see a "Support our troops" sticker on the back of one..............
 
LOL...I hope you've got more to back up its ties to the military than occasionally spotting a "Support Our Troops" sticker on the back of one.
 
Oh dear, that did make me smile.

What to do with Hummer by janakiram

After January 2009, Dick Cheney will be the perfect spokesman to sell Hummers, following Bob Dole's footsteps! Most Hummer types probably think a world of him, and look upon their Hummers to help them overcome in areas where the may be falling short, and Bob Dole's Viagra can come in handy!

Thanks for the descriptive word "Most". t_o_d is definitely a blue person in a red state. Some people only think of on/off, they all are, and etc. At times, don't like being included, erroneously, as in the go go, macho man, guns, hunting, fishing, hd's - (hogs). (By the way any truth that moab uranium mining is making the river glow at night). Been to asia courtesy of sam, rode a bwm boxer for a couple of years-but definitely been sad since the propaganda machine took over our constitition.

Obviously you are being ignored, which is the proper response. Even my comments elicited nothing. Enjoy your prius. Toyota seats are toyota seats. The air filter test for diesels has been linked several times. Stick with a clean factory filter.
 
Each can walk, ride a bike, or buy what each can afford or want to pay. And we are all entitled to free speech and thought. Yes, there are negative prius comments in hummer posts-provoked by the gestures and vandalism against hummers owners and their vehicles. Who started it and when - don't know - but think it should stop-there are bigger fish to fry. Hope you got your licks in - did that make you feel better.
