I put the H2 and H3 in the same category -- overpriced soccer mom grocery getter.  The H1 is an still an overpriced obscene status symbol but at least it's the civilian version of one of the best military vehicles ever built.  So I give it props for that.....but H2 and H3  ::)  They are piles of crap, not necessarily because they are GM vehicles, but because they serve little purpose and excel at nothing.  They only exist to fill a rapidly shrinking market segment.

Why does someone's yuppie wife need to use a hummer to get around?

That's easy.  There are a lot of people with money who thought money could buy happiness.  The purpose of a hummer is to fill a void in their lives.  They are people, no better than you and I, however, they, for some reason, have some sense of insecurity for some reason.  Freud would say they were probably bullied as a kid and needed to win "the game" in earning more money and flaunt it so the people who bullied them would see them in their hummers and be envious.

It's easy to figure out. I pitty them.
