Default The Lunar Eclipse is Nothing

Got to drive behind a H2 Hummer yesterday. OMG is that thing rediculously tall. Not wide like the real Hummer, which is actually wide for a reason and fun to drive off road. I didn't need to use my sun visor. All I would have to do was to pull under the shadow the H2. The friggen license plate was above my car. Of course looking around, it was like I was walking in downtown Manhatten. H2 in front, SUV behind, Minivan beside.

Actually, one behind me once I thought he was going to run me over.

You know a lot of car are HUGE today.

Yesterday I was parked beside a new accord. OMG it's HUGE, the doors were taller than my car, an LONG, it's a 4 door and the doors were longer than ours.

Messed up!

The H2 is meant for someone who wants to make a statement. Also it is perfect if you live in some backcountry roads, but not for the urban dweller!

Agreed, but I always hate when stuff is not used for its intended design. It's the engineer in me.

If they just want a statement, body panels, big ass spinner wheels tacked on cheap platform truck ... wait ... never mind.....

At least the H1 was utilitarian. It was big because it needed to be (for army use)

H2 is just big for urban-elitest showoffness.....how's that for a word?

It's also intended if you enjoy burning fossil fuels, or have family in the Saudi Royal family!
