re: [DMCForum] Hummer.

Oh I agree that this vehicle and most all other (e)SUV's are being used not for recreational off road use, but for grocery getting moms, mine included.  I got mine because when I put my NY house on the market my wife jokingly asked if when we sold it if she could get rid of the minivan and get an H2.  To her surprise when the deal closed I told her to go and pick out her H2.

Now I trailer with it and use it for hauling stuff around and we do the local HUMMER off road events (and have a few scratches to prove it), but it my wifes daily driver and grocery getter.  Please don't hate me lol.

But as far as off road use, it kicks ass lol

Sat in...  I did almost have the chance to ride in a
few (for a project at work), but did not make the trip
to Georgia.

The H2 is a nicer consumer vehicle.  But, people
bought them based on the popularity of the "hummer"
for military use, and then the people like Arnold who
drove them around town...  It is not like most of the
people who own them were out looking at a Yukon and
said "Hey, the Hummer is a nice step up from the
Yukon".  Most of them were like "Hey, I wanna be cool
like the Terminator and drive a hummer", or drive it
like an expensive status symbol (which is the prime
motivator for most purchases like that).

I realize Jack that you use it for hauling "in style",
so you could argue that you don't fall in to this
category.
