So Gas here in Utah is now $3.18

Listen, if gas prices EVER cross the mind of a potential hummer owner then the truck isnt right for you. Just like a Suburban, Tahoe, etc. The difference between 2.75 a gallon and 3.25 a gallon in the grand scheme of things doesnt make a damn difference to me. Picture if you drive 15,000 a year. The cost increase (.50/gallon averaging say 13mpg) isnt that great when looked at over the course of a year. Does it suck??? Sure it does. I didnt buy a hummer thinking of gas cost. I bought it because I love the truck.

If this is what is on your mind then buy something else. Honestly.

I agree. If you have to think about it too hard, it probably won't be enjoyable for you.

BTW: Gas is like $3.05 in Burlington, VT now.

Who Cares...in Canada overall the new car sales of "Gas Guzzling" SUV's has increased by 25% over 2006 sales. Your way better off in an accident with a big vehicle rather than a little vehicle. A really neat vid was posted some time back about how a Smart car survived a 70mph impact against a concrete barrier. The car was destroyed but the drivers compartment stayed intact, this is fine and dandy, but for a person to survive a sudden impact like that going from 0 to 70mph is extremely unlikely. All your internal organs would slam into your rib cage and burst causing massive internal bleeding because the crumple zone can only absorb so much, the rest of the impact wave resonantes through the rest of the vehicle including the drivers cab and that's just so happens to be where you sit. These vehicles have been labelled as "disposable". This includes alot of other small cars that fit into their category. Fine and dandy, you save cash at the pumps, but the day you get into an accident the odds of a little car impacting a larger vechicle is very high...somewhere in around 92%. Hell, some motorcylces are even bigger than some of these smaller cars. So forget about the savings and worry more about you and your family surviving an accident and walking away from it.

Cheers!.
