Did you face criticism when you got your Hummer?

Reactions to the H3 in San Jose/Silicon Valley have been very positive. People ask about the price and gas mileage all the time as they look it over. Obviously they are drawn to it by the exterior styling. They like to look inside too. When I tell them them about the gas mileage as similar to a Ford Explorer they seem to be somewhat surprised. But many are very surprised by the pricing, they seem to expect it to be more expensive.

I've been questioned at work, at lunch, at the supermarket, by the neighbors. People are interested and curious in a positive way.

I was only flipped off once by somebody stopped by the side of the road on a mountain bike in the Santa Cruz mountains near here, they probably mistook it for an H2. I had to laugh, it kind of validates it as a Hummer.

So far I've only seen about a dozen H3's in the valley on the road. Still relatively rare and the dealer said he had only 10 total at their 2 locations last Sunday. Demand still seems strong here.
