I will admit, when i decided to get out of sports cars last month and dive into the 4x4 community- the Hummer was one of the ones I was looking at. I am very happy with the choice I made for sure, and I definately wouldnt wanna be on the "other side" now. Interesting though what everyone has to say, and you dont have to read through the forums to know that this competition thing is alive and well. I seen it right away with those guys when I started driving a Jeep

Fracking Really?!?!? We carried bags of feed 2 at a time to his shed through the mud because he didn't want to get his truck dirty.
Lucky's he's pretty much family.

Ok...update. So I roll down my windows- put in "Take a Back Road" by Rodney Atkins, cranked it up and gave a half cocked smile like Burt Reynolds gave the cops in Smokey and the Bandit and eased up. Who cares that I'm a 41 yr old father of 4 and acting like this. Still full of testosterone
I watched an h3 or h2.. who cares.. stop along my house at a stop sign yesterday. The thing is so ugly. I don't like to bash stuff but all these jeepers who don't like color matched hard tops and whatnot and are afraid of their jeep looking like a hummer... get your eyes checked. Almost every vehicle looks like another somewhere and our jeeps are not only better looking, but don't even come close to looking like a tonk a truck on steroids walking around venice beach with cheap gangster bling.
Also got a jeep wave from an old guy last night. What a good feeling.

Well not gonna lie, i kinda like hummers, i think the h3T would be a nice truck to have. I would love to have an H1, they seem really fun, but i dont really like h2s all that much. I like both jeeps and hummers. There are some jeeps that i dont like too though like the compass and patriot
