(not the PUS*Y H2)

[thedefiantone]

So...as unfortunately expected, my Russian friend proves that unthought-out and pointless flaming posts are his specialty...so be it...

As for your remarks Gee-Roy; again, I appreciate that you brought this to my attention as I love a good debate, but, I'm beginning now to think that your purpose was to bring me into the group, see what they'd written and then start some sort of flame war because I'd be some big headed prick that would continue to trash the H2 while you sat back and watched and laughed. I've looked over some of your other posts in other threads and that seems to be your thing, stirring the pot a bit. Certainly nothing wrong with that, it keeps people on their toes and is sometimes progressive and healthy, but in this case, I think you might be a tad disappointed that I didn't come in here and go off on the H2 guys.

Additionally, you said in your last post, "You didnt say H2's were pussy just to sell your truck. Your feelings are your feelings. by you retracting all your statements makes you a girl to me. You said an h1 is far superior to the pussy H2" If you go back and read my 1st post in here, I address the whole "You didnt say H2's were pus*y just to sell your truck" in posting, "so we?re clear, I actually like the H2 rig, not so crazy about the H3 (here comes another onslaught of posts). It?s certainly not a HMMWV in the strictest sense of the term, but, I think they?re nice looking rigs", and I stand by that last statement, hence the PUS*Y reference. Perhaps not accurate, but my interpretation of the true HMMWV vs. the H2.

So, don't tell me I'm not sticking by my guns. Nothing in ANY of my posts is any form or type of retraction of anything I stated in my ad, simply a clarification that I'm not some arrogant AZZHAT that thinks I'm better than you, DOC or anyone else for that matter.

Lastly, and this is the most ignorant and inaccurate remark you made (READ: ignorant, not stupid, so make sure you realize the difference when you flame back), you posted that "You (I) said an h1 is far superior to the pussy H2". I could be wrong, but, SHOW ME where I EVER said that. I didn't...simple as that. Didn't say it in my ad, didn't say it in a post...they are two different breeds of truck.

One last comment on the PUS*Y remark to sell my truck. Actually G-Roy, that is EXACTLY why I said that in the ad, that and it gets folks attention. I ALWAYS run into people that are under the mystic and misguided belief that the H1 can go anywhere, do anything and climb up walls. They'll stop me in traffic and comment on all the places I must have taken the thing...they simply don't get the dynamics of weight vs. thrust, how sticky mud REALLY is, the fundamentals of traction, etc. They simply see what most people do perceive as the most bad ass truck on the planet...and I, as a sales person in this instance (selling a rig) am simply utilizing that ignorance (there's that word again) to help in selling a rig. Just like you bought your H2 (I'm betting) because you thought it was some bad ass rig because of the MARKETING that GMC did, I too am marketing a rig with catchy, or, as someone else posted, SASSY language to get people to read my ad vs. another.

In closing though, I would like to say that I don't think you're (G-Roy) completely malicious or anything. I was actually impressed by your 2nd post wishing me Happy Thanksgiving Day (if in fact that was directed at me, not the group in general). If that was for me, then, you probably are indeed more of a pot stirrer to make sure to keep people honest, the BEST kind of pot stirrer...the kind we probably need a lot more of in Washington! Ever thought of a job in politics??? ;-)

Alright kids...I've watched this thread for a few days and feel it's time I move on, I need to keep working to make sure I can get my 170k (*wink* to G-Roy...ps: I'd recheck those STATs, I too beleive they are WAY off). Again, with only one exception (my good Ruskie), I'm thankful for all of your posts and appreciate the criticism and the openness by most to make sure they got to know the person despite making a snap judgment. I do hope I run into you folks out on a trail somewhere...and again, as before, I ask, PLEASE REMEMBER YOUR TOW STRAP - and maybe a straight shot to ease the pain!

Happy Thanksgiving once again...I'm going to eat!
