Re: What did you drive before you got your Hummer?
I did have a Mazda 6 several years ago; this was my commuter sports sedan (yeah right).
Sold it, and bought the H3.
Still in my line up:
02 Mercedes SLK 230
04 Escalade EXT
06 Lincoln Mark LT
I drive the Hummer more than anything...............
Peace
Mark

Re: What did you drive before you got your Hummer?
2005 Chevy Colorado, 4dr yellow
1990 Chevy Silverado Super Sport show truck (GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN). My husband had already started building this truck when we got together. We built the bed interior together and loved showing it. We won several awards with it but felt that it was time to move on. He has a 1958 pickup to build and I have a 1938 chevy sedan to build and there's no way we would have even started to build them as long as we still had this one. I fell in love with the H3 the first time I laid eyes on it so we sold the show truck and used part of the money as down payment and traded my colorado. Now I'm dressing up the H3 to show while he prepares to work on his 58 and I'm loving every minute of it.

Re: What did you drive before you got your Hummer?
Well I got my hummer at 19 years of age
Before the hummer I had to drive a 2001 or 2002 Daewoo Lagonza. Just like the hummer, everyone knew it was me!
Also I drove my brother's 2002 5spd eclipse gt whenever he let me. But now I have the best car out of my brothers.
However im so nice, i think he has driven my 3 more than me. But thats all going to change now.
Going on 6 1/2 months and still got the new car smell.
4200 sweet miles

Hey where did you get those pics of my second car or my daily driver depending how high the ceiling is on the parking structure. I'm more of a # 3 or Red Line guy.
But don't forget this set of wheels

Re: What did you drive before you got your Hummer?
LR Discovery, it was fun, but ....... emergency lane changes and quick braking manuevers would make you wet your pants.
H3 is much more stable all the way around.
