Now my wife with be able to run over the 80 year old dementia sufferers when they cross 4 lanes to make a turn.

I spent 4 years driving in Florida, Daytona to be precise. Learned how to ride a motorcycle there. Had numerous close calls with the blue haired set, and I'm still alive. Your thinking is deeply flawed.

the H3 gets a whopping 4/10 for value in it's class.

http://consumerguideauto.howstuffworks. ... mer-h3.htm

yes the 2007 gets a 4/10 too.

It's below the average in its class for every rating except one.

Gramps, what kind of research did you say you did again?

Driving a Hummer.

Yep. You're one of the guys I see on the interstate chugging a gallon every 8 miles, bouncing on the seat from the stiff suspension, riding in a massive off-road toy that isn't even built well enough to do real off-roading, to work every morning. i.e., a complete fucking idiot.

What's even better is you bought it for a woman to drive. That's gonna turn out well. I mean, if she's one of those women who don't care about little things like comfort, economics, ease of driving, but instead just wants everybody she knows to see her in an expensive vehicle, she might even still love the thing after 6 months.

"expensive"

Probably was thinking about the H2.

ygp should stop playing those war games

btw, H1 is the only way to go. everything else is for wannabe rappers and ugly soccer moms.

it's a fucking hunk of junk

looks like one of your yank school buses, only not as good looking.

don't tell me you're getting one...

lol no.

If I wanted an SUV I would get a Range Rover.

lol

A dumb redneck looking at foreign cars (as if he'd buy one) and ends up buying a land-yacht Hummer instead. There's a fucking shock.

Gramps...it ain't worth its redneck salt ifin it aint having a gunrack.

Dumb cunt.

i think the new freelander > range rover

H3 is nowhere near the size of a full size h1 hummer. Its even quite a bit smaller than an H2. You probably wouldnt fit in it.

comparison vid.

oh yeah, I meant to say Land Rover. The Freelander is called the LR2 over here. They look sweet and are almost half the price of the Range Rover.

Yea, I was. I forgot the H3 is even less 'high-end' than the H2 was.

i.e. it's even more shit. lol

The original Hummer was an ass-kicking piece of machinery - practically the military model with a few things stripped off.

Ever since then they've been dumbing it down and "consumerizing" it more and more.

Now it's nothing more than a regular SUV that doesn't even perform as well as most SUVs on the road. The only thing you can buy it for is the looks or the "wow value" (as if). You certainly don't buy it for performance if you've done any research.

BTW Gramps, what I find the craziest about your decision is your justifying it by saying your wife drives 30K miles a year. What in hell were you thinking? For $30K you can get a safer, more comfortable vehicle that doesn't break your bank with the gas mileage. Sure she may not be able to haul 32 cubic feet of shit in it -- but don't you have a pickup for that?
