Hi, besides my 2005 H2, which is my everyday driver, I have a customized 2005 Chevy SSR. She`s my garage queen, comes out for car shows and some great trips with my fellow SSR fanatics.

i split DD duties between these two. I will try and drive the H1 2-3 times a week and the Toyota the rest of the time. For some reason i love the Toyota but the wife refuses to ride in it. I think she thinks people would consider her a redneck (apparently that's bad??)

My daily is a 2009 Chevy Silverdado 2500 HD Crew...I love it... but not near as much as the 2003 version I had with 91K miles, but lost coming home from a Quebec fishing trip when an 84 year old guy fell asleep in an opposing two lane and came acorss the line just missing my BiL's van in front of me, but leaving me no where to go. I avoided the head-on because I was on the ball likely saving some lives, while he slept thru it (til impact anyway) going about 60mph, his mini van went under the bed section of my truck taking out the rear axle and popping the drive shaft, no one was hurt by the grace of God, but my 12 year old son really got shook up from it, who I am kidding I stared into space for a day or two myself after that.... 10 hours from the US border with no vehicle, gives you time to count your blessings....anyway that day I vowed never to slip into one of these little tin cans they want you to drive now to save the planet at least until folks quit falling asleep, drinking and driving, and texting behind the wheel.
I will NEVER drive a vehicle whose windsheild is where a bumper should be...
BTW, I was on roads in the Quebec backcountry where all I could think was..."I'd love to be back in here in with the Hummer" ...COOL BUSH COUNTRY trails over rocks and across creekbeds and swampy areas to get to the boat landing, 53 miles from the hard top!!! Chevy had no problems back in there, but it would of been more fun in the Hummer.

I just traded my 2004 CPM Pontiac GTO M6 in on a 2008 H3, which is now my daily driver. The wifes daily is a 2003 Mazda 6s GT and the play car is a 1993 Mazda RX-7. I also have a 1977 Corvettte that I adopted from my best friend with front end damage and I still have no clue what I am going to do with it.

Please please please wait and report what happened!! Something similar happened when my grandparents were re-ended by a drunk driver who left the scene. My grandfather was killed in this accadent but because people stopped and called 911 and gave a report of what happened they were able to track the guy down within and hour and he was put in jail. If you can't stop please call 911.
