I drooled over this thing hate to imagine what the H3 will do lol. Spotted this outside my work the other week. Hummer or Humvee-whatever it's bloody cool!
Who cares if it's fast or not, just drive over the boy racers. They can't drive fast if their car is crushed :P |

Hummer's pedigree is ideally suited to Australia's diverse and challenging off-road environments," said Holden's executive director of sales and marketing Alan Batey.
Bully woolies. Anybody that knows anything about off road adventures will tell you that Hummers are too wide. Obviuosly Alan Batey knows nothing about off roading. :

Will they will be renaming it to the Holden Humptiva?
I hope to God they don't re-badge it and then Joe Mullet's begin to think Hummer's are as Australian as Meat Pies and VB's

Great... It's not going to drive over any ricers guys.. It's not even a real hummer for christs sake, it's built on a different platform to the real army ones!
Now.. would i rather ricers in their small cars being *******.. Or soccer mums and G-Unit ganster wannabe's driving around in a hummer whilst blocking my view and wasting more petrol than needed... Can't decide really, lol. Both bad to me! |

why not just go one better and import an M1 tank,
I think hummers are a bit too much if you just drive about in the city as im sure they would annoy the absolute ***** out of others in smaller cars ie: everyone. but if you have a farm with canyons on it, and al queda squatters. go for it lol

Don't know wether to love it or hate it. It's like deep fried coke - it tastes so good but it's just so so wrong. Ahh America...

It will be interesting to see how this goes.
Its Shorter than a Territory and has a smaller turning circle. Thank god they aren't rebadging it. Wonder if there will be any addition hummer models or if the H3 is it? |
