I just reread it and you are correct. Oops! Sorry CO Hummer! I take it back, I promise! The "Proud Student" must have been the part that put my panties in a wad! No comments from anyone out there about my panties, please.

Sorry, Sorry, Sorry!! After rereading it, that was damn funny.

[KenP]

No panty jokes? Damn... What about "thong in a knot" jokes?

LOL

[CO Hummer]

I was being serious. I mean, a normal troll just couldn't think up all of those witty, original, well thought out comments.

And I think you all better wise up. Remember, it's not just 'hummer destroyer' talking. He is speaking for ALL of the internet!

To HummerD,

Get a life! And, yes, the bank does own these cars.......just like the government owns the land that you reside on. Let's not forget how this all works, shall we? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Now you're pissing me off HD. I finance every vehicle I buy, not because I have to but because I choose to. Why?

1. All this junk depreciates...rapidly. It's not like the investment is going to appreciate.
2. The bank loans the money at 5-6% interest. If I can't take that same money you would sink in a worthless depreciable piece of junk and make 25% + on it I'm not too bright.

Economics is not your strong point is it?

Good Point! Plus..... It's not just a Truck it's a Tax Deduction

And who needs safety ratings? Weight is weight. If my 8,000 + pound H2 hits one of your turdboxes, Volvo, Vulga or otherwise, guess who wins?

By you not knowing the true story behind the picture made you look like an ass and a liar.

You've just proved youself as a bitter have-not trying to hurt the feewings of the people you so deperately want to be.

This pleases me.

You are pathetic. I sympathize with your struggle.

Oopsie...well...I would use that term...but I think you got enough of it over on OTN. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I have no idea if your version of the facts are true or not but they certainly don't hurt the H2 in any way. Based on your facts of the story, he hit 4 vehicles (one head on by the photo) and basically walked away. And the safety issue with the H2 would be?

So you own 15 houses, good for you if that is the true case. Based on your previous statements about the price of property where you are that would be the equivalent of 1, maybe 2, decent houses around here.

So own these properties because you don't buy or lease a new vehicle. Well lets see, 486 doors residential (both multi and single family properties) and 10 commercial properties (will be 11 on Friday) with multiple tenants each, four companies other than real estate LLCs, all while leasing three vehicles. Ok, does it sound like lease is hurting the financial growth here?

That's funny because I just found that story and it said nothing about a 32 mph collision. Rodney was also a contributor of funds amounting to $3,500. to the republican party and is in auto sales in Anchorage.

I checked these to see if maybe you misread it somewhere but no. OOPSIE!

Real Story:

Hummer wreaks rush-hour chaos
CRASHES: Driver runs light, hits four vehicles, police say.

By Peter Porco
Anchorage Daily News

(Published: August 27, 2002)

At least two people were injured Monday afternoon after a motorist drove a new Hummer through a red light, slammed into two vehicles and then sped down the wrong side of the road and hit two more vehicles, police said.

One car hit by the Hummer caromed into a van, making for a total of six vehicles in what looked to other drivers like a demolition derby.

The man behind the wheel of the Hummer was Rodney Udd. He owns the Hummer of Alaska dealership on Fifth Avenue, according to salesman Howard Castle at Anchorage Chrysler Dodge, Hummer's parent company.

Udd was treated at and released from Providence Alaska Medical Center, a nursing supervisor said. He could not be reached for comment Monday night.

Police Sgt. Gil Davis said police are still investigating.

"There doesn't seem to be any alcohol involved," he said. "It may be some kind of medical problem, maybe a seizure."

The crash tied up rush-hour traffic on DeBarr Road. At 6:15 p.m., two hours later, the maroon Hummer lay crossways in the eastbound lanes of DeBarr, its front end mashed to an unrecognizable tangle, its door alarm ringing and radio playing.

"It's still got that new-car smell," Davis said.

The 2003 Hummer, Castle said, was Udd's demonstration model, worth about $60,000. It was totaled, police said.

The Hummer, southbound on Airport Heights Drive, had stopped for a red light at DeBarr. The driver sat through the green light, Davis said, and when the light changed again to red, he took off into the intersection.

Tammy Morse, a 32-year-old delivery driver westbound on DeBarr, was behind the wheel of the first vehicle struck by the Hummer, a white Pet Pantry van. She braked hard and the Hummer opened a hole in her front bumper but bounced away into another vehicle, she said.

"He just plowed through everybody else," said Morse, who was uninjured. "He ignored me, hit the extended-cab (truck) and turned and headed down the sidewalk."

The Hummer spun around after striking the second vehicle and then sped west down the eastbound side of DeBarr, she said.

"I couldn't believe it," Morse said.

It seemed even more shocking to Jenette Jemison, a 21-year-old student driving east in her sister's late-model Mazda sedan.

Heading up the hill outside Alaska Regional Hospital, Jemison found the square-nosed, wide-body Hummer -- the civilian version of the military's Humvee -- coming straight for her.

"He was on the sidewalk, and I'm thinking, 'What the hell!' " Jemison said. " 'He's going to turn away.' But he doesn't. He just keeps coming."

Jemison said traffic was heavy and drivers around her were blowing their horns and trying to get out of the way. She squeezed left but not far enough. The Hummer came off the sidewalk and smashed into the Mazda, spinning it into the left lane, where it was hit by a van.

A few car lengths later, the Hummer smashed head-on into a Dodge Ram pickup. "That ended it," Davis said.

The pickup driver, unidentified Monday evening, was treated for minor injuries at Providence and released, Davis said
