My Hummer H2 will use less gas in 3 years, then it takes a ship to bring one car from China.

You can no longer take the day off from work and use "I can't make it in, too much snow" or road conditions as an excuse. (same can apply going to your Mother-in-Laws for dinner)

Owning a Hummer gets your exercising in walking. When parking it some where you always use the back forty from the main door, and away from other cars.

When stuck in traffic, you always glance off the road at the terrain and know you could make it around everybody, but you don't dare.

Post your facts, I will come up with more later!

National geographic channel. We were watching it the other night and they said the fuel consumption of one ship coming from China was thousands of gallons. I forgot the number but I quick did the math in my head, and we could drive our H2 every day for over 3 years and still not come close to what the consumption was.

pretty good!

I would like to add this Hummer fact:

When you own a Hummer and this blinged out Escalade or Denali pulls next to you at a light it's very easy to look over and say: "yeah... and?"

Hummer Fact

Hurricane Force Winds, downed trees, and 3 foot of standing water in the roads doesn't keep you from picking your kids up at school....

True fact... we had some BAD weather here... including 17ft seas.

Zero to Hero (Hummer logic) (still a fact)

"They" are up in the forest hugging a tree. A meteor hits (earth quake, volcano erupts, bad storm hits) the earth around them tumbles down. An ambulance can't get to them, the military and search and rescue is busy other places and they are hurt bad. The see a passing Hummer using his own gas, and putting his/her self in harms way collecting the stranded and hurt, and "they" call out for help. Your a Hero!

If I want to take my Hummer up to the same area, (with no disaster) and have a picnic with my wife and dogs, harm no one or anything, enjoy my life and my pursuit of happiness, I am a Zero. (to "them")

I could not agree more about sitting in traffic and starring at the terrain and knowing that you can do it if you really need to.
