New H3

GM released thier new concept of the hummer 3, they now come as trucks. This is by far, the worst looking vehicle I have ever seen in my life.

I could take what that truck costs, and build a 70s FORD that'll beat it in every respect, and look good doin it!
Hummer, an appropriate name for a truck that BLOWS

I asked my neighbor if he wanted to go off-road--ing with me (he has an H2) and he said “Heavens NO!!!” -----I reassured him I would tow it out when he got stuck, but he wouldn’t go.
The new H3 is so ugly, people will still buy it. That’s okay, if they do, they deserve it.
You know what’s worse than the H2 and 3, what about that thing that looks like an H2 but it’s made by HONDA. Now that’s really uuuuugly.

Bad News for GM this massive monster along with the Ford Excursion will have to meet EPA milege ratings. Not so this year since they both weigh over 8,000 Lbs.

What Honda? The only thing I know that looks like a H2 is that Studebaker thing that is coming out.

I test dorve a couple of H2's. I like them. I just don't have a need for the offroad capabilites. You can pivot the thing on a boulder right out of the factory for heaven's sake!

98% of the H2 owners claim they will never take them off-road however.

The original Hummer's or H2's as they are now called, are very serious toys. But very capable ones. You would want to get one of these babies offroad in a hurry.

All in all, after driving the H2 and then my V10 powered X with it's truly cavernous interior, not to mention it's own 4X4 capabilities, I can say without a doubt I made the right purchase for my money.
