I must look like an idiot trying to get the attention of EVERY Hummer I see so I can wave at them. Some just give blank stares in return. Maybe I'm trying too hard.

 

I live in LA and get no reciprocation from Hummer owners. The H2 guys seem to look the other way when you pull along side. I think most H2 owners here are status rather than sportsmen. (This is not directed to H2 owners on this site).

I get much more reaction from FJ cruiser drivers. They seem to have dropped thousands of those things in LA already. My kids make faces at Toyota people on the freeway.

 

I get the same thing here in Florida. Hummer owners never wave to other Hummer owners. But I did get a shopping cart pushed into the side of My H2 the other day at the grocery store.

 

H2 owners pretty much ALWAYS wave, but not so much H3er's!!! WHAT'S UP WITH THAT!!!!![sm=dontgetit.gif]

 

My take is the pricing, to go out and buy an H2 you are most likely a really strong enthusiast. The H3 is very affordable and attracts a much larger more generic crowd as is evidenced by some of the mindless topics out there concerning the truck. I have a kid who plays elite level sports and the difference in the passion toward the sport among the parents is 10 fold that of the parents at neighborhood rec center sports.

I think what is going on in major markets is there is so much money that the rule does not hold true. In smaller more rural areas the people are friendlier in general.

 

Do you think this 'generic crowd' who don't qualify as enthusiasts do take the effort to talk about their transportational vehicles on this forum

 

R U stalking me from the other thread? Am I entitled to my opinion? I love the truck for it's extreme abilities. Last weekend at a school function a fat ugly 50+ mom told me I had inspired her to buy an H3 for her next car, it was enough for me to sell mine to here and go buy an H2.

Different strokes for different folks

 

i've seen generic beer, generic cigarettes and generic prescriptions, but i've never seen a generic crowd. is it all white, with the word "crowd" in bold, black letters? the closest thing i've seen is the "white out" at the old Winnepeg Jets hockey games. but they went the way of the generic beer. . . .[sm=alien.gif]

 

It is a bland mindless sort that is hooked on television and unable to make decisions on there own. They are blind in there choices and buy things based on what various celebrities and Madison Avenue say. They are the lowest common denominator and should be exterminated in my opinion. They cross all sectors of our society and are mostly weak. Simply put human sheep!!!

They are the people who condemn the society they live in and blast our armed forces for cleaning up issues that are to unsavory for their MTV sensibilities.

 

All I was saying is this: You were insinuating that you could see that there are many 'not enthusiasts' that drive h3's judging from the subjects in the forum and I said that if you're not an enthusiast you probably wouldnt be at a forum at all. So dont try to squeeze everyone's juice here and yes you are entitled to your opinion.
