RobBob Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 My nearest neighbor in my remote neck of the woods has done it again...this time he's bought a Humvee. Believe it or not, his wife drives a luxed-out Expedition. This in addition to the multi-million spread on the waterfront...the extreme go-fast boat that maybe got used one weekend last summer...the horses. True, he's a wealthy physician, and can afford it. But I just don't get what drives somebody to seem to focus on "the best that money can buy"---for everything. This guy's like a miniature Larry Ellison. So what's your approach to toys:I'm a tightwad---love second-hand and booty stuffI like to buy really good gear for a few select sports/interestsI spend until I run out of money, then save again for more stuffcan't talk now...too busy counting my skis Quote

allthumbs Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 I only want to buy it once, therefore I tend to buy the absolute best I can afford. You won't see any Ferrari's in my stable though. Quote

allthumbs Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 The H2 is a fucking joke. No self-respecting man would own one. It's the real deal or nada. Quote

allthumbs Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 No erik, but the difference between the two is phenominal...starting with 17" ground clearance on the Hummer as compared to 9" with the H2 SUV soccer rig. Quote
catbirdseat Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 Mom doesn't want to have to hoist all the kiddies up 17 " and strain her back. Quote
allthumbs Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 There you have it H2=Mom's soccer rig (make it yellow) bwahahaha Quote
Dru Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 THe h2 should come with a Microwave On button, cause it looks like an oven... Quote

You're a moron. Some of us buy expensive shit because it makes us feel good, or we like the performance, or the rush, or any number of reasons. Don't drop that 'penis size' shit on me, sista...go buy some more patchouli oil. Quote

glacier Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 My best response to all that was to take my 2WD Nissan through axle deep mud on a job site for two days in a row - mud on the roof, the whole works, then take it out on a Friday night and park it next to the tallest, shiniest 4WD I could find.

JoshK Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 yes, trask, I agree, that is why I was asking. The H2 isn't even a hummer. It doesn't share any parts with it AFAIK. It's basically a suburban (which is a fairly sub-par off road vehicle), live rear axle and all, with a different top thrown on. It's pathetic. Quote
troubleski Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 the ground clearence comes from the angled drive shafts. not from it being much higher off the ground.... we wouldn't want Mom to have to strain..... Quote
minx Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 robboberto  you forgot "who the fuck cares what the neighbor bought, i'll play w/my own toys" Quote

Â Yup, exactly, which is why a close look at the H2 reveals that all they was raise the body up a bunch and leave the chassis the same. The result it a top heavy POS with no more ground clearance than your average small or mid size SUV. Quote
