Down the street from me are some crazy Hippies with TWO count 'em TWO Priuses.

Only Instance I have gotten is like first month I had my H1 was parking it after a night out on the town and a couple guys my age 24 or so were partying outside their house down the road where I have seen a jeep etc... And all I could hear is HUMMERS SUCK.. I replied very respectfully with "ONLY WHEN BEING RECIEVED FROM YOUR GIRLFRIEND"....
but yea thats about it from the neighbors... but hey Haters are good to have if I loose one I hope to gain 2 more because it means your doing things right!

You might want to tell the "Hippies" there are more poisonous materials in there "pricksus" of a car than they think i.e. Nickel-Metal Hydride( a rare earth alloy, so you are depleting natural resources)! plus a combustion engine so the're doing twice as much polluting. And for all those people that are Hummer Haters are ignorent, stupid, and believe in global warming and ethonal and problebly don't even know there State's Capitol. And if anyone confronts me about our Hummer, they best beware.

#1. There is nothing wrong with a Prius. They get great gas mileage and are technologically advanced cars if that's what you want.
#2. No one here bought a Hummer because they hate the enviornment. The H3 can get close to 20 mpg. There are over 50 trucks, SUVs and cars that get worse mileage driving right now in the US today.
#3. If you do hate the enviornment show it some other way. People like Wannabe are the ones giving Hummers and Hummer drivers bad names.

Thanks

All of my neighbors like it. My next door neighbor who is in his late 70s, loves it and he doesn't even have trouble getting in and out of it. I also have ex-marines and of course they were the first ones over to check it out. I was the first to get the H3 in my development and now we have a his' & hers' couple down the street from me..they bought a red one and a white one.

All my neighbors are cool with my new H3, but where I work is not. I work for a school that is green. Certified by the mayor of the city. The teachers lifelong goals are to help the environment and there are many prius's in my parking lot. When I pulled up in a hummer they had a fit. They even went to my principal to complain (like what see is going to fire me over my car or make me give it back) I don't think so. I had to even go to the schools Low Carbon Meeting to educate them. It was funny one of the people there was driving an expedition with alot worse mpg than me.

Not all teachers are smart apparently. "They went to the principal" What a bunch of whinee little Maggots! (Just had to get that in). It's jealousy and that stigma of being different. The only reactions I got was why a Hummer, I had a couple of Dodges and of course there are quite a few around by my home.

Honestly, if they dont like it, its fine by me. I never said i hated the environemnt, but people who are obsessed about it and hate a Hummer are stupid. Thats what would make me happy, seeing them pissed off at my huge truck. Because i dont particularily like those types of people.

BTW i dont have a Hummer, but they hate on my midsize all the time :/

Oh and omg, they COMPLAINED? How desperate do you have to be!

Humor fellas, debate, and opinions, let's not digress from there!

I'm NE of Detroit, Hummers are all over, there are four on my street, and probably 20 more in the rest of the sub. Detroit loves hummers, jap crap is a different story!!!!

BTW my neighbor 3 doors to the north has a prius, there may be one other one on the entire pointe. The dude has got a loose wire though, never see him unless he is cutting lawn, and he doesn't talk with anybody, not even a waive or hello?

I was contemplating a Jeep Commander with a Hemi, but the mpg sucked so bad I decided the Hummer is the way to go.

I live about 25 mins north of Columbus. It's kind of hit and miss around here. Most of the attitude around here is just because of the "prestige" of a HUMMER. The "old establishment" in town drive alot of F250 and 3500 Dodge's because of the outlying farms so it's not like they are overly concerned with MPG. We have a big movement of people from Columbus over the last 10 yrs or so and things are slowly updating because of it, there is an H2 and an H3 besides ours in my neighborhood.
They just don't like alot of change, "if you want a 4x4 for fun, get a jeep". Being from here I bought into it and had an 85 CJ7 and I had alot of fun with it, but I have to tell you that my H3 has surpassed anything that I have had before. I don't like the people that drive Hummers, FJ's, Mercedes, Porshe, anything and think they are Bob Bitchin because of thier car.
I always tell the haters to go read up on it before talking to me, they usually don't come back.
