...the appeal of the Hummer. Its just a big gas guzzling truck that's not particularly fun, nor comfortable to drive. Nor does it possess the convenience of a real pick-up truck. Its useless.

For my long trips I have a Volvo Cross Country that gets reasonably good mileage. Its very comfortable and perfect for ski country.

In town, I jet around in my little Honda Civic SI. Great fun! Good gas mileage and plenty of pep. Excellent handling.

I just can't imagine lumbering around town in a giant Hummer that won't fit into a conventional parking space. What a waste.
