Just curious about when you're in the parking lots and such if you've had stranger's approach you and make snide or negative comments about your ride. I've had mine a year and have never experienced any of the negativity branded against Hummers like some here have mentioned. Not saying it doesn't happen just wondering how much it happens among members here.

Can't get the poll to work... not sure what's wrong. Maybe the mods can take a look.

The ASP 500 error is a server error. That would be the IT guys deal.

I've had comments from guys about driving a rich Soccer Mom car but I quickly remind them that their F-250 4x4 costs more than my H3, that usually shuts them up. GM probably doesn't realize that the H3 gets bundled in with the H2 with HUMMER haters, see http://fuh2.com, notice how many H3's are there? The general public is ignorant about the H3 being any different than the H2 and GM doesn't do a very good job explaining the difference.

i understand now there has been a couple of people give me the bird and i couldn't work out why? they were in a sh1tty 15 year bomb and they gave me the finger????????????????/
now i know why thanks Realjeep
but i have had alot more positive comments and jestures by far
the greatest is the look on the kids faces when you drive past them 
as far as the feul goes my other car can use more feul than a hummer and it is a 4cyl (6.2mpg)
and because it is a small car no one cares??????????/

Isn't it crazy Skippy? According to the U.S. Government, the H3 isn't anywhere near the gas hog as the Range Rover, the Mercedes R63 or the Dodge Durango. Yet we're the ones the nit-wits are flipping off on the road just because of the bad reputation the H2 has. The scum sucking liberal media here in the states has demonized the entire HUMMER brand and the Eco-Nazi's have taken up the mantra and made HUMMER the focal point of their misguided attempt to heal the Earth. I honestly think AM General, GM and HUMMER could do a better job with public relations but I guess they are like most H2 owners and don't give a rip what others think.

that's right i know i don't care what other people think
i also have a machine that uses 450gallons a day of deisel and it is recycling 
so as you can see i don't care to much about feul usage
but what also give some ahole the right to think that we really care what they think
the people that give any negitive comment or gestures have personal selfestem problems
and just want to make them selfs feel better by putting others down
and you know what?
that makes me feel better about me cause they feel that i am happier than them
true i am happy
life is like a box of choclates

I get the occasional "what kind of MPG do you get?", but overall not bad. The one guy that really gave me a bunch of **** about buying it is trying to buy one now
I get more "cool Hummer" or the kids looking than anything bad though.
Got the ASP message also

I have had mainly positive comments. Interestingly people immediately think it is AUD$100,000 car and when you tell them it is AUD$60,000 which is $20,000 cheaper than the starting price for a 200 Series Landcruiser, they suddenly start to look it with a whole lot more interest!
Might have to go to some hippy markets one weekend just for fun!!!

The H1s always draw a crowd. Kids don't pass it without stopping for a look. Teenagers take photos on the road. All who commented above are right. The H3 Alpha gets better gas mileage than my F-250 diesel, costs less and the regular gas is over $1.00/gallon cheaper than diesel. No one cares about me driving the F-250.

What about the Hollywood morons who show up to the Oscar's in their Prius only to go home to their 10,000 sq ft home to get ready to take their Private Jet to their next day's movie location?????? "Look at how green I am in public".
I love the negative attention...give me more of it. Had a moron in a Mazda 6 give me a "thumbs down" on the road at a light before the express way on ramp. It was a nice sunny day last week and his Mazda was black and VERY clean (looked just waxed). When he moved out from behind to pass me on the express way (we were doing about 75mph) I hit my windshield washers and the windblown fine mist covered his "black beauty"....got the bird after he moved in front of me. I must have went thru a lot of my reservior holding in the wash button for at least what seemed like forever!!!! Should have tried the rear one while he was behind me waiting to pass!!!!!!!!
I hope that windshield fluid water spotted his finish. Washer nozzles are a great weapon against people in clean cars that act like @sses.
