I notice a lot of "close stoppers" at lights. I chalk it up to the car version of dogs smelling each other's ***** I guess.

 

I got no idea what you all are talking about. In Detroit, if it's American made, they don't give a twisted rat's ***** what it is you're driving.
On the otherhand, if you are driving in the left lane (fast lane) and won't get over to the slow lane/pass the guy next to you, you would be a dipchit
no matter what you're driving.
My Hummer is slow, I stay out of the fast lane except to pass, wish everyone else (Hello you morons in FL and IL [:@])
knew there was such a concept!!!!

This also goes for the dipstick in the Black H3 on EB I 94 near Battlecreek MI on my way back from Chicago on 7/8/07!!!

 

Every moron driving some piece of **** thinks they need to pass me

 

I have now had my 2007 H3 for 4 days, and yes people seem to mess with it more than usual; but that's really nothing new, I am used to commuting on a crotch rocket. In the H3 I just stay in a lane that is doing the same speed I am. 4700 pounds of curb weight usually makes most threats only that unless you are provoking people.

 

Not smart to do here in Texas, we all carry guns!!

 

you must have tears in your eyes filling it up.



i have not yet experienced any especially aggressive driving towards me.... but it's new jersey. defensive and aggressive is hard to distinguish...

 

I guess I have been a little paranoid about people driving a little too close to my new H3 in traffic. I think it's because I'm not used to the vehicle and haven't gotten the feel for the size and height yet, so I am not judging distances as well. I HATE tailgaters, and with my rear window so high, and the spare blocking a little of my view, it seems to make things worse. When I can't see the headlights of the car behind me, they are TOO CLOSE. I usually slow down and flash my brake lights at them until they get the idea.

But the biggest thrill I had was the look of envy I got from some guy getting out of his Lexus SUV as I was driving past him. Made my day!

dude im laughing my a$$ off thinking of a little escort whipping around. really are those still around

 

i find when you are in the vascinity of someone with another kind of truck especially the ones that are fixed up, they always floor it and rap their exhaust out to the max with wheels spinning to try and get peoples attention to them rather than the hummer

 

Everytime I want to do something to a tailgater (use my windshield washer, slow way down, point to my head, etc.), my wife says, "People carry guns." Apparently they're pretty easy to get here in New York.
