Default Got the Hummer bird on Friday



Old guy driving other way at 4 way stop gave not one but two or three fingers...lol!
Oh how people luv Hummers. Haha!
Never met the dude nor was I anywhere near em. 1st week I had H3 crazed dude on Interstate 94 gave me a finger and choice words in a Jeep Cherokee.

Funny thing is I owned a Wrangler and now Jeep Cherokee XJ.

Oh well I've grown accustomed to being given the bird 🐦!

I'm actually a very understanding driver and courteous to others on the road.

Lady friend always laugh's when I tell her as she owns an 06 H3 and gets compliments.

Nice! I only got my H2 several months back. Got my first finger about two weeks after I got it from a lady in a Prius. Made my day! Have not gotten any since but plenty of people asking the stupidest question ever about an H2. Is the fuel economy bad? durrrr Of course - its terrible and I'd assume one knows that when buying one. lol

Maybe it's a Cheese Head thing, being in WI and all.

Never been flipped the bird while driving the H3 here in SE MI, H3s are pretty common round here.



When I first saw the title to this thread I thought you might have caught one, but they are too fast usually.

Other driver just proudly displaying his age, IQ, or fertility count.

Haven't gotten "the bird" yet, although, I've only had the H3 for a couple of weeks. Did, however, get a thumbs up from a gentleman in what looked like a classic Ford truck "hot rod".

Of course, it could have been the classic Alice Cooper I had blasting from the stereo.....

Default Hummer hate

After almost 9 years of ownership, I've received so much flak and dumb questions over this vehicle.
"How's your fuel economy? My Prius gets 28 mpg!"
"Why would you spend so much money on that gas guzzler when my Dodge nitro can do the same things!?"
"How much did that thing cost, 60K"?
"Must be tough finding parts for that Hummer, now that they're no longer being made"
And an angry note on my windshield informing me my car is wasteful.. that one really had me rolling

I had a lady ask "how much is gas for that thing". I looked at the pump and said "$2.35 a gallon. How much are you paying?" She looked very confused and didn't say anything more.
