Without reading any other replies, I say we will feel bad for them in the same way that we feel bad for people that still say words like "bling" and "-izzle".
Yep. This is the exact definition of yuppie. These discussions have been ongoing on news groups before the WW web.
this entire thread is based on people that can't afford things they probably wouldn't buy in the first place; so, they complain about them and mention that their $2000 jeep will do just as good. BS. Those things break too.
I gave up on SUV's (they too slow.... all of them), bought a little turbo sports car, pass all trucks, and end up getting to the trail head quicker.

Dear lord, when will morons figure out that they don't need to give their soccer mom hussy wive's massive vehicles to drive for lattees in?
I'm sorry, but women can be bad drivers, especially when they have a cell phone and latte with 3 screaming kids. But you now have a warning sign (LARGE SUV). Stay away! at least you can identify them now!

Why are dealers having such a hard time unloading them, even with incentives? Easy. They're pieces of sh!t.
Funny how it was shown that they had the highest incidence of recall and/or defective parts from the factory...
And for the love of god, combine all those single posts into one large one.
You know, Hummer had a good thing going with the original hummer. But now they've had to expand into other markets. That H2 is butt ugly. I liked the orignal due to its ground clearance, and mean appeal. The H2 looks out of place and has no better ground clearance or interior room than my gremlin.
The H3 came out at the wrong time. I hope Hummer/GM goes bankrupt. They build junk, and the autoworkers need to get with the program.

It's not a matter of not being able to afford them. Why isn't every person who owns a BMW or a Mercedes (being from northern jersey, there is generally one of those two in each driveway) rushing out to buy them?

Because they probably prefer German cars, thats why you'll see them driving X5's & ML's. ML's aren't very impressive, well at least oll the 300 series I've been in.

Any stock 1985 Toyota 4x4 or 4Runner with 31" or 32" tires will embarrass H2's or H3's off-road. Heck, with 33" tires and a rear locker they'll embarrass an H1 (which I drove for three years in the Army, thank you).
I'll take the Yota any day.
(On a side note, modern monster SUV's get better milage and pollute FAR LESS than my '86 and '87 4-cylinder Toyota 4Runners. The big SUV's get the bad rap, when actually me and other guys with little old mini-trucks are the real eco-terrorrists. Pretty much the same deal for any 1980's vehicle when you look at pollution output.)
