You seem very apprehensive about purchasing a Hummer. Hummers are wonderful vehicles but they are not for everyone which is why you don't see tons of Hummers on the road like other vehicles (Toyota Camrys). Every one of us purchased our Hummers for different reasons, but I think we can all agree that there's a certain pride of ownership (so to speak) that we feel by owning such a unique vehicle. These vehicles may not be fast, but they are some of the safest vehicles on the road and they can go virtually anywhere. When the H3 came out there was absolutely no doubt in my mind that I was going to own one. I guess what I'm trying to say is just be sure that this vehicle is the one for you.
Rutdogg is right. Hummers are wonderful vehicles, but must suit your requirements. They are not built to be, nor perform like, sports cars, but are a luxury vehicle that can go (if you want) offroad with ease. If safety, quality, versatility, and styling are what you are after, then the H2 might be perfect.

Thanks, Greek.
I like all of them; but, the Hummer is my favorite.

actually if you switched from 4.10 to 3.73, it would be even slower.

...most M3's get about 14-15mpg on PREMIUM, where as we get 12-13 on REGULAR so it pretty much evens out. what color is it? 6mt or smg?
:) Actually, my M3 gets around 21 mpg.
It's a 6 speed, mystic blue with black convertible top and gray interior.

. but i love the M3. almost got one and then realized, i love going where i shouldn't be (which a hummer can do) and insurance would absolutely kill me. and don't forget they are a higher cost to own. but i also figured the fuel economy is the same. most M3's get about 14-15mpg on PREMIUM, where as we get 12-13 on REGULAR so it pretty much evens out. what color is it? 6mt or smg?
