Hummer is dead.

[shortylickens]

All the haters can be quiet, I wouldn't buy one, but at least it was a unique car.

No it was not unique.
It was a shitty ripoff of a cool military vehicle. And a poor substitute for a real SUV. And there were millions of them on the road.
It was not unique. It was not special. It was not cool. It was mostly an ugly monument to American waste, greed, and stupidity, not to mention male insecurity.
I'd rather have a real Hummer, or a Jeep, or a good SUV.

Amen. A Hummer with a straight axle is worthless. Put an over-weight, over-sized body on a truck chassis and call it an off roader No independent suspension, no geared hubs, no suspension travel, and no in-cab tire pressure adjustment (I always laughed at the H2 rims with the simulated air channel). The H2 and H3 were nothing but worthless sellouts.

Just out of curiosity, which of those does my Chevy S-10 ZR2 have? If any?

good. that stupid brand is everything that's wrong w/ america

If you mean socialism, material envy, and limits on people spending their own money on things you don't like, then yes.

and no in-cab tire pressure adjustment (I always laughed at the H2 rims with the simulated air channel).

is that a requirement?

neither my cj or my fj40 have in-cab tire pressure adjustment, and i'm pretty sure very few d90's and patrols ever did either.

sell outs.

i always loved the hummer. gave me a reason to use my winch.

the only time i didn't get to winch an h2 out of a ditch. yellowstone, i drove up and offered and the ranger said i couldn't and they had a tow truck on the way.
still had to stop to get some pictures.

I see one wheel in the air, what's the problem? Does that thing seriously not have LSD? No brake torquing?

You may support the death of hummer but not sports cars, but there are those outhere who support both and will fight to get it

That will get very bloody in my front yard real quick, and on the side of the road when the first unfortunate soul tries to enforce it.

I need not remind people of the consequences of prohibition.

when i got there, they had already dug a pretty deep hole on the other side, even in 4wd low, they were stuck. that hummer wasn't going anywhere. they had tried anything and everything they could and had a good size crowd to help, and they still couldn't get out.

i had to get a good pic of the driver before we left.

The driver should have been able to lock the rear and center diffs and just drive out?

None of which killed the Hummer. Ironically, it was killed by capitalism. :awe:

no, its just a poorly designed car that wastes fuel for no reason other than to look mammoth
