Agreed, but again, I feel that way SPECIFICALLY about the Hummer. I don't feel that way about any other vehicle like a Maybach, Bentley, Lamborghini, Ferarri or even a Cadillac Escalade/Chevy Tahoe (which the H2 platform is based.) Other vehicles may be expensive and get poor fuel economy but none round out in the same manner to me as a Hummer.
It specifically warms me when I am in a foreign country knowing that taxes on vehicles and petrol are high, and I see someone driving a Hummer. I've seen them in a number of the countries I've visited in the past few years. Just like the "What does my girlfriend say about me" thread, a vehicle says plenty about a person, and again, that's why I like Hummers. You guys see it as wasting resources etc. I see it as asshole alert badges.
