It's not the Hummer's fault, it's the type of person who drive them.

Just try hitting the trails in a Prius, and I'll stick to my 4x4, and we'll see who gets the furthest.

Uhh? Have you ever seen a Prius?

The other poster is correct. I know several "flaming" Liberals who own / drive Hummers!

The Prius isn't half as ugly as the Pontiac Aztec... though I wouldn't want either, I'd take one for free. Shows that I value my wallet more than good taste.

Ooooooo... You just HAD to go and mention the Aztek!

I'm with you though. If somebody gave me one, I'd drive it. But I never bought one, and don't intend to.

Although there is nothing that can compare to the ugliness of a four-banger owned by some high-school aged kid that is bent on adding "performance tweaks."



Now that's a car that deserves to be made fun of.

No need. I have a friend who always makes me stand behind her Hummer and help her out of my driveway. She can't see. I've test driven a Suburban and it's a tank- I can't imagine the Hummer would be any better.
