I was in my H2 on a congested freeway (30 mph) when I gradually became aware of a high pitched racket next to me. I looked to my left. At eye level was a bus full of elementary school children screaming trying to get my attention.
When I looked over, they all started smiling and waiving. When I started waiving back, they started yelling, laughing and waiving with both hands. This went on for a couple of minutes until the traffic separated us.
The kids got a kick out of my shiny black H2 (it had just been waxed) and I certainly got a kick out of them.
I doubt the drivers of any other car get that kind of response.
Best regards,
George SSSS

George,
Isn't it great. I had a similar type of thing happen a few years back. Passing a bus on the highway and pretty much every kid ran to that side of the but to check out my ride. I thought the damn thing was going to tip over 
It may not have been a Hummer but it got a great reaction.

But you can't reach the horn with your hands zipped tied and your mouth full of flesh pole.
