Well I was a commercial banker for several years...I've now joined forces with the health world. I got into it to help out a foundation with some grant work, budget, numbers and such for a friend but it has now become my new passion, next to my H2 of course. I bought my first Hummer (H2) about 8 months ago and I love it. I get a lot of crap on the road because it'sso 'girly'. I can't help it -it has cherries all over it andmy personalplates say "HER H2". Guys try to run me off the road and cut me off all the time..what gives?? She just went to my paint guy to get painted pink camo (if he can get his hands on the paint for stage 2 of the process). I hope to get picks on when I get her back. why am I catching so much crap from guys just becauseI LOVE my truck?? I love cars in general...and have many to my liking. I'll find apic of my baby and put it on here. P.S -this is my first day to forums of any kind - hence the rambling...I'm nervous.
(Someone was talking about the Blackberry...I just got one of those too...love it love it!)

Welcome to our forum Girlie! Don't worry about the people out there! They are either jeolous or ignorant. Perhaps a bit of both

And PLEASE, for the love of Hummers, FIGHT THE ADDICTION (Blackberry that is)

I have replaced 4 today, on my fifth now, and hopefully I can go home after that

I still have about 5 more new ones on my desk, and that is just orders from two days ago. Not to mention a couple of new cell phones.

Anyway, thehammer - I can probably help you with your BB.

Should I just start the official off-topic Blackberry Help thread

Oh my -are the blackberries trouble?? My co-worker calls me a "crackberry addict" because I play with it all day long. LOLShe'shilarious! Well I push right back on the road when some f250 or something tries knocking me off the road. I'm not afraid to hold my own. I'm not a woman to be pushed around, I may be petite but I'm not push over. 2 days ago I was filling up with gas and some guy says real nasty "that's a big truck for a little girl" and I couldn't resist my comment of "funny, I was about to say the same thing about you". Geesh.

My blackberry 8700 just stopped reading my sim card one day, I dont know what happened but if I put the sim back in it sometimes worked and sometimes not (allowing/making calls that is) the phone works perfect but it mainly says insert sim when its already in. I reset it numerous times. I love the 8700 and hate the pearl which I have now.

I don't think he meant it that way

There is a site called www.fuh2.com where they rip into Hummer owners by taking pictures of them getting the finger. He meant those people giving you crap are probably like the ones on that site.

And Adrian, read her wholestatement again I think you misunderstood it as well

Oh I didn't know there was such a site. Last thing I want to be is offensive to anyone. I just stumbled onto this by accidentif that says anything about how saave I am with the internet and forums. I have cherries on the sterring wheel cover, hanging on my rearview mirror and on my license plate. I like red, I have 2 other cars that are red but I want my H2 to stand out so it's going pink camo with bling! Can't wait toget it back, still waiting to hearifhe'll be able to get all the paint he needs but I am crossing my fingers. Thanks for the info...
