Default Campaigning for a Hummer

Hello friends. I do not yet have a hummer. I've riden in them and am getting ready to buy one about a year from now when I have sufficient funds. I am a young driver, 18 years on age. (Will be 19 by them time I start looking for a hummer) I live in a mountainous regeion. I need lots of space for equipment, camping, etc.

I've liked Hummers for a good few years (actually ever since the H2 came out).

My dad says I should get a Toyota pick-up truck. I think not. I have found many many reasons why to get a Hummer, but I was wondering if you guys could help me organize a list of reasons to get a Hummer. Thanks for all of your support!

So, is it an H2 that you want to get?
I know very little about the H2 other than I too admire them. I really like the H2T.

I presently own an H3, and I feel it is the best vehicle that I've ever owned. It is a safe and stable vehicle. My insurance was not outrageous due to the ratings the H3 has.

Good luck in your quest.

Excellent. The H2 is my personal favorite. I will probably get a heavily used (but as good as new) 2006 H3.

I'm not sure if 107,000 miles is a lot for an H3 or not.

That is all true. I'll say that I'll save a lot of money on car insurence. I hear Hummers do not cost too much to repair is that true?

107K miles is a lot for any vehicle, but, if you do get it for a great price that is the trade off.
Do you have a 2006 H3 in mind? It seems like you do. As long as it was properly maintained you should enjoy a long relationship with that vehicle.

That's good. It is a 2006 H3.

If I'm going with a vehicle other than that one it would be a 2004 H2.

H2 is my fav but the only one Ive owned. drive train is bullet resistant. Nothing is bullet proof. Being a Chevy man, its a 6.0 chevy / GM powerplant. Nothing looks foreign to me. Im gonna drive it til the wheels fall off

I have an H3, but I'm eying the H2.
The looks are pure heavy duty. My wife says that with all the lights it looks like a school bus, and I love those lights.
We were behind an H2 SUT last night, I wanted to keep following it.

At the car wash I saw a 36 foot long H2 Limo, real cool.
