More oil: I wouldn’t call a Land Cruiser “crap.” It’s the only toyota I’d consider owning.
But i’d only buy one if I were going off-road.

It's the jap crap like the LandCruisers and land Rovers that are taking a beating with the current gas crunch. Americans are going to continue their love for the Hummers, no matter what the cost. In the end it is worth it to be one of those lucky people who get to drive the best SUV's on the damn planet. H2 and H3 sell like crazy across the Country.

Mercedes and BMW and Ferraris and Lamborghinis don't get any better gas mileage from their vehicles that are in their respective classes. Anyways I somewhat question the functionality of Hummer as a brand. I don't know about you people but I can't even keep track of how many H2's and H3's I see on the road everyday (usually by young women and soccer moms). As long as they are selling (They aren't selling as well lately with rising gas prices) GM is going to keep them around. well put jabari and hateful83.

Granted I agree that the H-2 is pretty silly and the people that drive them , even worse. But to pick on just one company, (I know all the GM/domestic/America haters, how could I forget)Toyota has it's share of fullsize SUV's and pickups as well as Nissan, Ford , Chrysler and just like some said earlier any v-8 powered luxury/exotic car from Germany and Italy. A bunch of America hating biased idiots on here. Yes the book is pretty stupid and no, it is not a book from GM.

It's not like Hummer is the only one. So it's bigger than anything on the road, so is a 7 series. I love how environmentalist groups were going around to Hummer dealers and trashing them. As if only people that bought Hummers were wasteful and not concerned of the environment. I don't get it.
