IT'S LEGO, not Legos. Heh


I've always had a special hate for the H2 Hummer vehicle. It's unnecessarily huge, absolutely horrible on gas, and ugly as gently caress. Yet a few years ago, they were everywhere. Living in metro Detroit, home of GM, you couldn't throw a stone without hitting one. Flash forward to TYOOL 2015, and my wife and I noticed, neither of us can remember the last time we even saw one on the road. I've been looking everywhere I go the past week, and haven't seen a single one. Where'd all these giants POS cars go?

The other day I saw one of the original civilian gigantic versions. It had been completely coated in that textured rubbery looking black material that I think is typically used in truck beds.

It looked pretty scary :ohdear:

I saw one like two days ago, but you're right I hadn't seen one for at least months if not a year or more so the encounter stuck in my mind so that I could bring it back here to the forums and help reinforce your own perceptions.

christmas eve at the grocery store, i pulled into the parking lot along with an H3. as i get out of my car the guy driving the H3 is getting out too. i look over and this guy looks like Joe Pesci on a meth binge, is wearing a black suit with a red shirt and black tie, and has two hooks instead of hands.

ASK ME ABOUT VISITING PROSTITUTES IN CHINA AND FEELING NO SHAME. MY FRIEND IS SERIOUSLY THE (PATHETIC) YODA OF PAYING WOMEN TO TOUCH HIS (AND MY) DICK. THEY WOULDN'T DO IT OTHERWISE.
My boss had one and it got 9 miles to the gallon new. He said he was spending $75 every 4 days on gas using it as a daily drive. He had the money and reasoned that it's one of the safest vehicles he could own for the famil but the gas mileage obviously stung. I saw them a lot around Vegas for a few years but they're definitely disappearing as people get them paid down enough to get rid of them.

It wasn't driveable, it was just used to drive a mile straight to the beach and back and that was it. It was miserable I'm 6'3" and getting into it was like climbing into an aircraft. I did have a train horn on it which was pretty fun.

You don't see them because they stopped making them ya doofus. Also the H2 was just a different body slapped on a tahoe along with some extra goodies like locking diffs, the h3 was the smaller one and was underpowered and gay

I didn't like them because you can't see poo poo out of those back and side windows.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE I ATE THE WHOLE THING"

When I lived in DC I saw H2's pretty regularly, and see a few around my present locale, and I used to drive an H3, and am kind of annoyed they quit making them, because it was like a poor man's Jeep Unlimited (totalled my H3 when I hit a deer, so I just moved up to the Unlimited).
