What do you say when.....

[DennisAJC]

NC,

That was me. Not really a shining moment in my life. But Crown decided not to do anything considering how many witnesses there were.

He is still in jail for a Canada wide warrant on something, I don`t know.

It`s fun to talk trash on the internet, but man in real life, it`s a different ball game.

That is a good stategy NC.

One time I did agree and he said,
`Then why did you buy it`

I said, `Because I CAN ` then walk away with a smile.

Wait....so a monkey invented electricity??? If he invented electricity AND could talk, why did he suck so much at math?


I dunno what to say to those people really, but like it says above, it varies. If they're being a jackass, I usually laugh and ask them if my H2 is the first one they've ever been up close to, followed by an "alright, so be quiet." If they don't really know anything about the truck or are questioning nicely or whatever, I too will try to explain a few things. Doesn't bother me all too much, after all it's my truck, I like it and I'm happy, and I know the facts. Plain and simple.

Be careful with that site link above. I accidentally clicked on a sidebar which opened the door to prono sites, hijacked the internet explorer, I closed the explorer, but it kept on opening the prono site on its own repeatedly and crashed my computer, which is rare for my PC. Had ro run several programs to cleaned out the system.

DennisAJC,

Glad that you came out okay ...

You know, I am in Northern California and every once in a while someone will "flip me off" or whatever, and one time someone even tried to run me off of the road, so I understand the frustration and the insults from these type of people ... unfortunately, all of this has "worn hard" on me and in my mind I am considering another vehicle ... but on the upside, I looked at the MBZ AMG GWagon and the brand new Range Rover, and neither of these vehicles compare to our H2's .... The GWagon is cramped inside -- too narrow -- and the Range Rover, although unbelieveably beautiful inside, is poorly put together and you have to be a genius to figure out how to use all of the buttons and gizmos on the dash ... I will stick with my H2 for now ...

I just tell them in the most friendly way,

"If it makes you feel good saying it, yes....it is! ".

That usually shuts em down.

If an H2 is like a Tahoe, then why does everyone go out of their way to see it? I have had people chase me down just to ask questions about the H2. Bikers giving thumbs up, middle-aged Vette ladies want to sit in H2, and all the kiddos drag their mommies over to tell them, "Look mommy, a HUMMER!"

My bro-in-law wants my tires on his Z-71, wants to lift it (at least as high as my H2), and oogles over every accessory I add. Now the Z-71, you could say that is a glorified Tahoe, but I don't see anyone chasing him down for question and answer time.

Argonaut,

They were driving a vehicle made by the most anti-semetic company in the world ... Fuji Corporation, an old beat up Suburu ... they were swearing out the window, flipping the "bird, and turning into us to get us to acknowledge them .... we just took their picture with my camera ... then they got pulled over by the Hiway Patrol and we just went on ....

I only had one guy at Jiffy Lube tell me it was a Tahoe. I asked why and allow him to bury himself and look stupid. I didn't have to do anything he did all the work for me and felt like a retard at the end. I also have the benefit of owning both a Tahoe and an H2 so its easy to speak from experience on the subject.

[NCHummerman]

I am in the SF Bay Area and have been told a few times that my H2 is " just a Tahoe with a different body " and lately " a GM piece of s**t " .... I just say " You're Right" and it ends it ... they don't know what to say --- and the converstaion changes and that's it ...

Grim,
Soooo you think Einstein invented electricity and wasn't so hot at math? Hmmm, interesting. So what you're saying is that nobody knew why the light bulbs & everything else that's electrical worked until Einstein figured it out?
And I was wondering where you'd been off to. I'd wager a guess that it wasn't school, now was it?

[H2mike]

What do you say when people tell you "Its just a Tahoe." I love this dumb ass comment. I have been told this many times and I learn to just laugh. What about you....whats your reply?

Frankly, never ever seen anyone making funny faces or unpleasant gesture at my Hummer in the last 17,000 miles and 12 months, that is a lot of driving, Tahoe, Sacramento, San Diego, LA, Newport Beach, Berkeley, Oakland, Stanford, Santa Cruz, San Jose, all over the places.

I cannot say the same about driving a big Cadillac, a big Mercedes or even a open top SL, people screamed out of their car or truck windows at a big Mercedes for some reasons, but I passed them so fast I didn't have time to hear what were said nor did I care what they had to say. All they got was a blank one second glance from me.

DennisAJC,

So how many bones did that wacko end up getting broken by your H2?

Since where on the subject kind of: What's the latest on the 'Phoenix Hummer Hero'? The guy that ran over the armed robbers with his H1.

I don't know how some of you run into so many negative people with your Hummers. I've never had any negative people confront me, say anything to me or flip me off. I just get people wanting money sometimes at gas stations.

H.M I thought an altimeter determined your altitude?

[Steve R]

Well...I stole this line from my buddy Craig T....but I like to bolt back at them with a bit of attitude: "No, it's NOT a Tahoe....it's a Yukon!!!!!"

My responses vary...depends on who's talking and what they are trying to achieve in asking that kind of question.

If they are serious and non-offensively inquiring, I usually start listing off all the differences. You know, confuse them with facts.

If they are being wise-asses, I generally give them the above mentioned Yukon line...but then follow it up with something about "If you think the H2 is just a dressed-up Tahoe, you'd probably also figure Albert Einstein is just a dressed-up monkey who could stand erect and talk".

Or I tell them about my buddy who has both an H2 and a Tahoe and finds them dramatically different.

Oh yeah...another one is..."there are two kinds of people in this world, those who can afford and have H2's...and those who can't and desperately need to find a way to knock what they can't have. Seems you've got yourself a good excuse!"'

Who knows...saying something like that to me is like spinning a huge wheel of sarcasm...you never know what kind of crap is bound to come flyin' back at ya...

Last time I checked, my ass was BAD.

[Hummer Man]

I think I fall into MAC's group of people being more friendly and inquisitive then rude.
Sure I have had the questions about GAS mileage, and I will rebut with a comment like "yeah gas stations are it's best friend" and try to be pleasant. But in no way have I ever had somebody slamming me about owning one.
Could a person get from point "A" to point "B" alot cheaper! Well of course they could.
In fact over one third of the worlds population will go to bed hungry tonite not in a house but under the stars or if they are lucky a ramshackle shelter made from boxes or discarded wood. Over half of the worlds population that is driving age will never own a vehicle - not even a bike. So today when you see a homeless person don't judge him! Load him into your Hummer H2 buy him a meal, Take him to a place of worship, Say a prayer for him and then go buy him a beer. He will feel better, you will feel better and the world will be a better place to live.
I try to do this once a week right before I get the H2 detailed. (Some of those homeless guys have a funky smell that gets in the leather).
PEACE, LOVE & GODBLESS
