2008 Hummer H3 review

Yes it’s big, yeshave their own views on it and more importantly, environmentalists absolutely hate it, which is a good reason to love the Hummer.

My first week was spent in a yellow standard-trim Hummer H3 with the second week finishing in a gunmetal grey Luxury variant. Karl had his way in the H3 Luxury in Perth and spent his time off-road. Before I begin, let me go over the treatment of the Hummer by some Brisbanites.

There is no denying that all 4WD/SUVs attract a certain amount of attention from those more worried about saving the planet than personal hygiene. The Hummer though, takes this to an extreme level.

From the few who see the Hummer as the vehicle used by the US army to invade sovereign states to those that think every single minute a Hummer is allowed out, a fluffy penguin dies in the north pole, the ignorance of some citizens is astounding.

Driving around a different car every week makes you realise just how sensitive some people are to certain cars, but you get used to it… or so I thought.
