I’ve always hated big cars and SUVs. I absolutely despised them. They served no really purpose in my mind, they’re too big, they’re overpriced, drink gasoline like it was water and were difficult to drive. Try getting out of a parking spot at Publix on a Saturday afternoon in one. My opinion of Hummers were the lowest of all the SUVs.
I think GM made the H3 & H3x for all of us Hummer haters out there. They must have, because I absolutely love that car. I saw three of them last Friday. Two on my way to UGA. One on my way back. Because they’re smaller, they maneuver well. All three were driven by women and none seemed to have any trouble navigating through Georgia-on-a-Friday traffic.
Hmm… maybe it’s “the chick’s Hummer”? Well, whatever. I’ve seen dudes in Miatas. I’ve seen big-ass gym rats in Miatas. They looked secure in their masculinity. I don’t think they cared, so why should I? The mpg is still shitty, but it is much, much smaller than the other two – maybe even smaller than a Ford Explorer, yet looks as rock hard as a prize fighter. It drives well, looks good and the $38,000 price tag is justifiable. I think the metallic orange is HOT. Next year… oh, yeah. You will be mine. I don’t care if you are a chick’s car. You’re the coolest chick’s car ever and I love you.
