Re: Gas Hog!?!
New commercial to educate ignorant tree huggers. Not a bad idea.

Re: Gas Hog!?!
Okay, "Gashole" is a liddle funny. 
RE: the new commercial write-up:
Didn't it say something about how they are going to emphasize the fact that it is lighter and consumed less gas?
(EDIT: I can't find that thread)

Re: Gas Hog!?!
I met this hippie chick the other night (I have long since left the hippies in Colorado...  ) and she told me I need to reduce oil dependence, why do I drive an H2? I said because I'm supporting the only automaker doing the most to create affordable hybrid technology, a viable and affordable Hydrogen system by 2010, and supports E85 technologies. She said that those systems were no good!!! Haha, I was baffled. She couldn't give an answer, because she said it took oil to make any of those systems. I said, yes, but once they're established, we can stop using the oil. That apparently wasn't good enough. Luckily, my friends attacked her for being stupid as well, so it worked out ok.

Ignorance is bad enough, but the Boulder "hippy-crites" really piss me off. Seems like everybody up there drives their beater jeeps and volvos or luxury SUVs that get worse mpg than an H2 or H3, but they still hate hummers "because of the gas mileage"

Re: Gas Hog!?!
My personal opinion is that the lefties/liberals/tree huggers hate Hummers because of the military connection. It's irritating to hear them damn the war and praise the military. At least they learned from their past mistakes.

Actually, I was reading in the Wall Street Journal that they are starting a new ad campaign for the H3 touting the mileage. About time! The manual trans H3 has higher mileage ratings than any off-road capable 4x4 except the Xterra.
