Wink Re: Maine Is Not Hummer Friendly

While in Las Vegas, someone wrote a whole litany on a ripped up scrap of paper, placed it under my windshield wiper, saying that my H2 takes so much fuel and I should be ashamed. They must have said H2 10 times on that scrap of paper ... and here was my truck, an H3!!! They didn't even know what type of Hummer it was. Hummer's just get a bad rap regarding fuel.... the Escalade I was given as a loaner took waaaaay more gas than my H3. There are narrow minded people everywheres you go, unfortunately.

Default Re: Maine Is Not Hummer Friendly

Hummer haters all have their own reasons. My father-in-law is a retired oil VP. He hates liberals and doesn't give a sh*t about the gas mileage. But he still hates hummers because they're a "status symbol".

But get this ... he owns 2, million dollar houses (for winter and summer), a condo in the mountains, and a big old cadillac. He eats at only the best restaurants and buys his wife expensive jewelry. I guess he likes his status symbols after all.

It's gonna really piss him off when I drive up in my new H3 this fall, lol

Not seeing the hate here in Silicon Valley (northern Cal), but people are often highly educated here. They know the H3 to some extent is somewhat of a concession to environmentalists (dare I say which will rile up some) with its more practical compact size and somewhat economical engine.

Just respond with, "And what off-road vehicle should I have bought?"

Either they aren't going to respond, or they will say something like a Jeep, to which you just reply, "Excuse me? The Jeep Rubicon gets a mile per gallon worse mileage than my Hummer H3. Let me know when you can give me an informed response."

That should shut them up.

That may work, but this should make them shut up and run. When they say, "People's children are dying so you can put gas in your vehicle.", just say, I know right, and you're next.
