HUMMER ... It's not your daddy's truck ...

[Bill Kervaski]

I've heard a lot of people refer to the HUMMER as a truck. I say we start a trend right here and now that the HUMMER is just that, a HUMMER.

(I feel dirty when I call it a truck - and it looks at me funny ...)

Any takers?

Hummer actually is lobster in norwegian! Something to think about for owners of the red ones? ;-)

Mac: Schwarzenegger is from Austria, not Germany. Maybe if he was from Bavaria, he would be buying BMW's and Audi's (they make both in that area)?

Anybody heard anything about availability of the "nav console" from the SUT concept?

[HummerGirl]

I call mine a truck. I have not gotten bitten yet when I reach for the door handle.

But I see where you are coming from...it's not an SUV but not a truck either. There's nothing like it...duh...LIKE NOTHING ELSE!!!

Mine is not a Chester white(assuming that is a pig?), the only pigs I have seen are in the petting zoo, my Hummer is a big fat mean angry nasty American Grand National Champion wild black hog. My Hummer hog eats German, Japanese and English pigs(SUVs). What's for desert? [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

I had this conversation with the friend the other day. We ended up calling it a "rig".

COOL LET ME KNOW I WILL BE MORE THEN HAPPY TO DO THAT

[HummerGirl]

Someone tried to be "cute" the other day and called it a "Humm-dinger"...

I kept slappin' my knee all the way home while rolling my eyeballs.

some people just don't get it.

Around here people generally refer to their SUV as a 'truck'. Not too crazy about that, especially the wimpy ones. I say call the HUMMER what it is - a HUMMER.

ex:
"Im going to the store and Im taking the HUMMER"
or
"Dad, can I take the HUMMER to school?"

That only leaves what the SUT will be called...

As Schwarzenegger himself warned in his Bavarian accent during a tour of the Hummer H2 plant, "Don't call zis ze 'Baby Hummer.' You might make it maaad."

[SONA]

Mine is an UAV..... Urban Assualt Vehicle.

[1 bad h2]

I DID NOT KNOW OTHER H2 OWNERS FELT THIS WAY ABOUT THERE HUMMERS!
ALL MY FRIENDS THINK IM CRAZY BECAUSE OF THE WAY I LOVE MY H2,,,,,,,IVE HAD ALOT OF CARS INCLUDING BENZ,PORSCHE,BMW BUT NOTHING COMPARES TO THE FEELING OF OWNING A H2,,,,,,,,

[HummerGirl]

sounds like we got the same deal H2fan.

I might get you to pick up one of those gas caps...having trouble finding them around here. No PEP boys here. But one about an hour away and it is the most boring drive to get it.

I'll let you know. I would pay you with money order and some soap that I make by hand!!!

Word is the nav being built into the console is pretty much #1 upgrade on newer models of the H2...when we will see it is not for certain.

And as per this threads initial topic, we're driving Hummers. Not a car, truck, pig, definitely NOT a Humm-dinger. Hardly an SUV either. Allow me to demonstrate:

Is that your Hummer? Wow...you own a Hummer? Damn that is a sweet-ass Hummer! You look really good driving your Hummer! Can I have a ride in your Hummer? That Hummer really kicks-butt offroad, OH MY GOD....you own a Hummer?!

Can you see the pattern here? More then anything we are regarded as being Hummer owners, we have Hummers, we drive Hummers. They're Hummers! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

I call my H2 Baby. Like, I walk out of the house and say, "How's my Baby this morning?" Then she smiles at me with that big chrome grin. But that's all just between me and her.

MAC thats just sick and wrong.Where are you from anyway? A pig???????
I raised Chester whites for about 13 years while attending 4-H even had the Grand Champion at the Del Mar Fair but comparing the Hummer to a pig?
You know on second thought you have a point but you should keep things like that to yourself.shhhhhhhhh.

Yes the drive itself is very boring. It is sooooooooo flat and nothing to look at. Hardly any turns. South Georgia is VERY flat and the drive to Columbus is boring compared to the North Georgia Mountains that I long for everyday. We are hoping to move away from the flat South Georgia Plains. God I miss the mountains in the fall....the colors of the leaves and then the snow and ice in the winter months.

Back to the drive...Just 4 lane highway with an occasional farm. But they have already harvested the cotton so nothing pretty to look at. Just bare stemmed cotton plants with an occasional stragglin' white trail of cotton along the highway.


Now the trip to Florida (Tallahassee) is nice and curvy. And I will be making that trek to the Hummer Dealership in the next month or so for our first oil change!!!! Now that's a better drive!!!
