What Made You Want A Hummer..... - Page 3

Because I like everything I ride to be BIG, rough and last!

Because it's so damn cool...plus it pisses off the greenies!

Can't believe Hummbob didn't jump on this.

Yeah....I know.....I HELD BACK!!!!!
 
I don't like to SCARE the young ladies!!!

Always wanted one just by the way they looked. We had no intentions of buying one but 7 weeks ago we headed to a Hummer dealer to test drive one. After we drove it, the only choice to make was what color, and what options to get.

We test drove every American made SUV that would be able to tow our boat. Hands down (even though they were more money) the H2 was and is the only SUV we will ever own now. They can not be beat in comfort, style, off roading, looks and how well made they are. Once you have the best, you can''t go backwards.

Exactly!!! I still had a year on my Denali lease when they came out in 2003, so I WOULDN''T EVEN TEST DRIVE ONE, cause I KNEW as soon as I did, I''d have to have it!!!

I went on a hunting trip with a friend that had just gotten his. Went straight to the dealership when we got back. Had one the following weekend.

HUNTING??????????????
 
Poor Widdle Aminals................

Yep, culling the herd. Helps make it better for the survivors.

we are the only ones who hunt and eat our coat of arms!!!!!!!!!!

What''s Australia''s Coat Of Arms???

Well I never actually set out to buy a Hummer.  You see, I had a bright yellow 2000 Nissan Xterra that I''d put 191,000 miles on.  I had used it to cover a lot of on & off road driving, pulled bundles of cut saplings, hauled rocks, etc.  I really liked my X but it was starting to get tired.  So in Oct ''07 I went shopping for another yellow Xterra - did I mention that I really liked that truck and the new ones seemed improved over my 2000.  Nissan was offering good incentives on 2007''s, so I told several dealers "Find me a 2007 yellow Xterra in the Offroad trim & I''ll buy it". Only the Offroad trim includes skid plates, rear locker, etc.  Turns out there were none to be found on the east coast.  It seems all those Xterra advernture ads are just marketing - they really get used as min-vans for those in denial.  I even went to one dealership to test drive a 4x4 Xterra, but the sales weasel wasn''t interested in talking to me if I wasn''t interested in the trucks they had on the lot - it''ll be a cold day in Hell before they see me back on that lot.  So we drove to another Nissan dealership - lots of Xterra''s but not a single 4x4 - BOGUS.

On the way home we passed the Hummer dealer & decided to stop in just as a lark.  We''d heard the H3- I5 was massively underpowered, but on a test drive were impressed that it was certainly peppier than our Xterra (not a real high bar, I know).  The sales guy at the Hummer dealership was super.  No pressure, no sales BS.  Just gave us information and showed us the truck. 

We went home and talked about it.  The H3 certainly had the offroad capability that we have to have (second home is 2.5 miles along logging road).  It rode nice on the highway, but all the Adv models in the dealership had bling we didn''t want to pay for.  Two days later the sales guy calls in that he has an H3 coming in equipped just the way we wanted it.  Done deal.
