RIP Hummer

I didn't think they had made the H1 for a long while. Oh and there's nothing "micro" about a Hummer.

 

The H3 is what Chrysler should have made when it updated the Cherokee into the Liberty a few years ago. No, it's not small, but it's not full-size either.

 

Bravo

 

Pick it up, Ace. That's good.

As for the Hummer, 2MCM mentioned the H3 as the only daily driver of the series. Trust me, the only way you'd want that car is if someone gave it to you gratis.

A few years ago, we did PR for a Nationwide Tour event here in SoCal that was sponsored by one of the big Chevy dealers in the area. This dealer ran the biggest Hummer franchise west of the Mississippi and the fourth largest in the nation.

During tournament week, they would give all the tournament staff H3s to drive. I didn't get one, but the tournament director schlepped me around in his part of the week.

The entire car is plastic. It was a $33,000 Legomobile. Frankly, the Hummer golf carts they brought in for the week seemed more solid than the H3.

Anyone buying one of those not only has small Jones syndrome, but a keep-up-with-the-Jones mentality showing more moxie than sense.

 

Nice

 

Good career move.

 

When people read in 2103 about the fall of America and the rise to power of China in 2015, the pictures of the Hummer and George W. Bush will be in the textbook.

 

Between you and me ... I drive a Hummer with a Prius shell on top of it. Here, check it out.



Gets even worse mileage than a Hummer! And the back seat's big enough you can perform an abortion in it!

 

China should have been the most powerful country a long time ago.

Lucky for us that they just decided to sleep through the 20th century.

 

Coach O is beside himself with grief.

"I love a Hummer, you love a Hummer...tell 'em about, Jo-Jo!"

 

I'm glad this got recognized eventually. Well-done. Well, well-done.

 

I test drove a H1 a few years back and loved it, but there was no way I could afford the price or the 11 miles per gallon.
