ORIGINAL: MLCedio I am so tired of the comments and harrassment from the public, people who don't even know me feel as though they have the right to criticize me for driving a Hummer. The first time it happened, it was a simple beep and a thumbs down. Caught me totally off guard, and I simply responded with "The Bird". Then, it was a passerby yelling "Terrorist". Today, a Hybrid slowed down and tossed an iced coffee at the hood of my H3. I am now pissed and that is what has brought me to this forum. I never realized when I purchased this vehicle in Aug. 06 that there was such hate and animosity toward Hummer drivers. Screw them all! I love my H3! [:o] So that's what's powering those Hybrids these days...Starbucks 'Frappuccinos'...lol. As for me, all of the comments and gestures directed toward my direction have always been positive, but then again my eyes aren't as good as they used to be. Although I rarely go out of the home these days, when I do, I've noticed a steady increase in Hummer ownership within the area...an equal amount of H2s vs. H3s with a few H1s spied once in awhile. I believe that there are about a half dozen H1s that I've seen on a regular basis here. This just might explain why Hummers aren't frowned upon within my area as opposed to some others, that is, unless a handful of 'tree huggers' are talking badly about us within some dark backroom somewhere? Believe me...I like trees too, but please let me tell you that palm trees are absolutely worthless for proving any amount of shade whatsoever; however, I've heard that they do make a fairly good anchoring point if one was to become stuck in the sand.
