No this thread doesn't belong in the Sex forum.
Ever since hearing about the design of a new Hummer back in January of 2000. I've been stashing away some cash here and there. Well the day has finally come. Yesterday I put in my order for a brand spanking new HUMMER H2!!!
YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!
But it's a long way off. The waiting list is long, and to make matters worse (depending on how you look at it), I won't be getting it till August. August 2004!!! 
For the first time since GM bought AM General, Hummers (actually just the H2) is being offered to GM employees at their GMS/GMO pricing. Which is a BIG fucking deal.
Instead of paying over $52k for the vehicle, I'll be paying just over $40k.
Of course this means that my order won't be completed for quite some time, but that's ok... It's a done deal!! The Hummer WILL be mine!!!!
Today is the happiest day of my life (don't tell my wife)
...at least till August 10th of next year!

I do not like the new look of the H2, I think it is a stupid attempt to look like all those other stupid easy rolling SUV's that are death traps and a big annoyance on the road. Give me the original Hummer!

I don't know why, the red H2 looks just like a beefed up Jeep Cherokee, which is ugly IMO. I love the hummer, and all it's kick ass features, bu the new design look like they're trying to pawn it off as a family car, what's next, the Warner Bro Edition Hummer (he he HWB?)
You can get all sorts of old military vehicles. Even military humvee's.

Give me another $68k and I'd be more than willing to get an H1....
But if you look at the capabilities, you really aren't missing much.
The H1 can travel through 30" of water. H2 20"+
The H1 can climb 22" vertical steps. H2 16"+
Bascially the same big shit track that the H1 had to Qual on the H2 was able to pass as well.
Let's look at the facts:
Compare the H1 and H2
As you can see, the H2 actually has BENEFITS over the H1. And in the areas that the H1 accels, there are only inches in difference.
H1 will always be the off-road king, but I'd just as soon go for his and her HUMMER H2's, than just 1 HUMMER H1.

SORRY...let me rephrase:
The FRONT of the RED H2, looks and resembles, to me, the FRONT of a RED NEW GRAND CHEROKEE, without the snorkle and shit. The pic you put of that cherokee is an older, not that old but older model. I was referring to a 2001/2002 model jeep.

I still think GM and AM General did a fine job of taking this:
and turning it into this:
and for a price that is more than HALF!!!
