It doesn't really bother me, just something I thought I'd mention because it's the only thing I could think of that might bother someone.

As for the tires, it still has the original 265/65/18's that came on it. It's four years old, but only has 13k miles on it.

Go for it. The Hummers are fun to drive and starting to see less and less of them.

I drive mine every day - but i have a short commute, but long journeys in it are comfortable too.

At work I park on a patch of desert, so while the little jap cars fight for a firm space near the road, I can park wherever I like and not worry about getting out again.

"jap"? Really? Do you not realize that's an offensive and derogatory phrase?

I believe that was his intention when he wrote that. Had he called a person a "Jap", then you may have a reason to get offended, but since he was referring to the foreign cars that his co-workers drive, then I don't see an issue. He, like me, loves his Made in America Hummer and apparently has nothing but utter disdain for foreign cars.

Don't look for trouble where there isn't any.

What? That's some seriously twisted logic. If I refer to Cinco de Mayo as "Spic-mas" that's cool, because I'm referring to a holiday not a person?

I don't see how you can interpret "jap car" as anything but "A car made by those Japs".

TS,

mine is my daily driver, traded in a 2001 v6 mustang for it. I commute only 2 miles each day to work. 45 minute trip on the highway every other week. Absolutely love it. I take it off road every now and then to make her feel at home. And I love when people insult its gas mileage and I get to tell them I got 23 on my last highway trip, which is better than their truck!

If you're simply concerned about the full-time 4WD, don't be. Its very common and in more SUVs and sedans than you realize. Our H3 has been a daily driver for five 100% reliable and fun years.
