Want to flip off the world? Buy a Hummer

On the other hand, it's got an absolutely horrible interior. If Chevy came out with an identical interior in a $12,000 economy car, people would laugh at it for being worse than a Kia. It squeaks and rattles. Nothing fits quite right, and it's made of cheap, hard plastics that wouldn't even be suitable for a G.I. Joe toy on the clearance aisle at Wal-Mart.
The H2 is based on the same platform as a Suburban, which results in a decent ride that can be bumpy and bouncy at times, exactly as you'd expect in a vehicle designed for off-road performance.
Style-wise, the H2 looks remarkably like a Humvee, the military machine that does the dirty work for Uncle Sam. It's much more civilized, though, with a trendy, bling-bling, urban style that ends up looking like a cross between Norman Schwarzkopf and Chamillionaire.
I won't even mention the amount of gas it slurps. If you're thinking about buying one, you probably don't care -- and that's fine by me.
The problem is that there are some people who think they ought to dictate what you're allowed to drive. They want to make you drive a Prius and eat nothing but organic lettuce and tofu because everything else will melt the icecaps and result in the untimely deaths of cute little chickens and cows.
So if you disagree with those folks, buy a Hummer. It will save your middle finger a lot of work.
Pros: It gets a lot of attention and tells everyone around you that you don't care what they think -- you're gonna do your own thing. It has amazing off-road performance, too.
Cons: It guzzles gas, is pricey and puts you on Greenpeace's "most wanted" list.
