We got the same krap from this turrd driving a land yacht in the college town of Corvallis, Oregon. Maybe it just peeosed him off so much to see all of our moving stuff, the H3, the big truck, AND he California plates!!!!! Funny thing is this: His land yacht gets worse mileage than our H3 and my wife's great great grandparents were Oregon settlers!!!

When people do that crazy krap about the Hummers, I just ask 'em why they're supporting a country like Japan that truly could care less about anything environmental.

I seriously hope I can catch the weasels in the act. I've got my plan, but I'm going to have to look around for the security cameras first!

I was behind a guy at a turn signal once and he threw a cigarette out his window. I knew we still had some waiting to do. I got out, picked it up, threw it in his car. Yeah, it looked like a cat chasing a mouse in there. Dumbass. Another guy tossed a McDonalds bag out at our corner. I scooped it up, followed him around the block, and tossed it in the back of his truck.

Yeah, I figure something out.....

i spent some time i Durango, a few weeks back, you can feel the stares driving down main street, people will be people and will get theres for their descions that affect others, but look at it this way, in their eyes its a small victory in their sad lifes, and another thing they always hate and run, or drive off or in the cover of darkness, rareley do you get face to face hate, well if i do i might need you all to send me a care package in the county lock-up if some poor soul vandalizes my baby...or theartens my wife when shes in the 3..not to steal a time honored quote from the americas, but our colors will never run, yellow, slate , black, grey, red, green, and all the other colors that h3's come in

On long Island I havent had any problems with a$$holes.I had a few people at gas stations that were driving suv's say how do you afford the gas I said It does the same or better than your suv.They were suprised ,they think it gets 12mpg .People are stupid .


But.... my wife started a new job 10 months ago ,april is when they give raises.She goes to her boss and says .45 cents isnt going to cut it as benifits since she started went up about the same as the raise and she expects more(she will get a bonus of $5,000 in January and thought she would get 1 or 2 dollar raise).
my wifes boss had the nerve to say that the president said not to hire her originaly because she drives a Hummer WTF ...were they looking at what she drove when she went for the interview ?.

It is a japanese camera company and the president that said it is japanese.
I just dont get it

If you do end up in the county B&B, I will make sure you are treated the best.

The problem was that my wife was by herself and didn't think to get a plate # or description. It was in a windy canyon and would have ended up different had I been along. Of course, I would have had one of my coworkers arrest or site him instead of beating his ass. I think I've had another run-in with this guy and Karma will hopefully have us meet again.

I agree that face to face, these weasels wouldn't have the nerve to say anything to my face. As a defencive lineman on the ice, and a part of the "Rhino Squad" at work in the jail, I have no problems twisting up people into hippie pretzels. I just have to watch my "P's & Q's" so I don't get fired in the process.

Also, I have my truck paid off and have it lifted and accessorized just how I want it. I could have sold it and took over the H3, but it was as she wanted it, not how I would have done it. I figure that in a year or two, Hummer will have fixed some of the problems (like a standard V8) and will have more aftermarket support. I could see hauling my ATV's with a lifted V8 Adventure packaged 3, but towing with the I5 sucks. Time will tell.

And speaking as a self proclaimed hippy, I am so sorry the JACK ASSES in Durango can't find something better to do than harass you and the family! I think you did the right thing as well, but it is regrettable. But, don't hate us all for the stupid acts of a few.

And the fully thing...I bought the H3 because it had the best gas milage for the vehicle that did what I needed (and it looked so darn cool!!!!!!)

Good luck. My best to you and yours.

The only time that my H3 was vandalized was in Durango, CO. Someone didn't think that my Terrapass sticker on an H3 was funny and ripped it off. No sense of humor

I think you made the right choice. They may have won the battle, but they didn't win the war. Sometimes you have to know when to stand down, especially when your family is being threatened.

BTW, I've contemplated putting fully armored doors on my H1. Though here in PA, it's not a problem, but in Mass... UGH.

I can deal with stupid and/or rude people, but if I catch them defacing my property, there's going to be a "little" problem.

Despite the fact the sticker was on a Jeep, I really want to get the one that says - "PETA - People Eating Tasty Animals".

That one would look really good on the rig

The Hummer Club use to stage in Durango for the pre-Moab trip. We do not anymore. I had a customer trade for that same reason in Santa Fe.
I am a 300 pound man so few ever even give me a look. I did have someone FU me at a gas station when i was selling and driving an H2 as a demo. I jumped in the truck and folled him to the place he parked up the road. As I jumped out of the truck he peeled out. You did the right thing for you but not for me. Good luck with the new vehicle and show your support for Durango by never visiting! money speaks louder then words today.
