antoinefilmsRANTS: Hummers

The first in a series of video rants that I'm going to do. If you agree with me, or you just think I'm totally wrong, leave your opinions either way.

Pretty nice job on the production. Unfortunately, your knowledge falls short of your ability.

You claim the H3 gets 15 mpg, but the standard engine is the 5-cylinder that gets 20. Tell the truth.

You claim Hummers emit huge amounts of emissions -- wrong. The H3 (best selling Hummer) emits no more emissions than an average sedan.

Most other countries don't hate America, they envy Americans. A few hate us, but they hated us long before Hummer was invented.

AntoinefilmsLIES!

I claimed that the H3 got 15 mpg on *Average*. The H3 can achieve 20 mpg with optimal fuel, road, and weather conditions, but this happens once in a blue moon. According to the U.S. department of energy's website, the H3 gets only 18 MPG on the Highway and 14 in the city.

Also, the Hummer H3 is be relatively clean compared to it's hulking brethren. However, the whole reason the Hummer H1 was discontinued was because it couldn't accommodate an emission law passed in 2006.

It's so sad to see your camera finally kick the bucket. Our old 1990 model outlasted it. How long have you had yours? Since '03, '04, or something like that?

[antoinefilms]

I think it lasted me a good five years, which is pretty good considering all the wear and tear it got.

nice

[antoinefilms]

nice comment -_-

[firechasers]

Wow -- you present an excellent argument for the need to improve education in school. Maybe you remain unaware of laws that govern the maximum allowable width of street-licensed vehicles (to keep them from using more than one lane). Even then, lacking cognitive abilities, no vehicle is capable of trying to run anyone over.

Sure, I'm messing with you. Not because you're young, however (I didn't bother to look at your profile) -- I just enjoy pointing out the stupidity of the typical eco-nazi.

[BlackShuck123]

true that man.

[BlackShuck123]

is your head shoved up your ass? of course a vehicle can threaten to run people off the road. you can't honestly say that a hummer doesn't take up a lane and then some. Too bad 48 year old men like you have nothing better to do than verbally joust with a teenager on the internet. Old people ftw!

[firechasers]

Okay, you are obviously mentally deficient. How on

Earth could a VEHICLE "threaten to run people off the road"? Drivrs can threaten tings, but Hummer drivers are no more prone to threatening others than those driving other vehicles.

Hummer headquarters are and will continue to be in the United States.

Too bad you Eco-Nazis don't have manners as good as my car!

[BlackShuck123]

Hummers have nonexistent street manners. They threaten to run people off the road constantly. H3's are manufactured in 2 places, South Africa, and the United States. I did my homework they're made in the Shreveport factory. If you paid $45,000 for a car to 'play with' than you obviously have more important things to do than argue on youtube. Good day.

[firechasers]

I bought a $45,000 Hummer to play with. It's a great off-road vehicle with pretty good street manners as well. That's why I bought it instead of some clown car.

Hummer is now owned by a Chinese company, but will continue to be built in America, by Americans with all the same engineering, production and sales team intact.

Do your homework.

[BlackShuck123]

19.8 mpg is still relatively low to all the wonder-cars that are cropping up these days. so why spend over $30,000 just to on top of it spend a ton of money on gas? you can argue that you're buying American, but GM doesn't make Hummer anymore! A Chinese Company now produces them.

I continue to believe that your "argument" is bogus.

[13capzero]

I loved the production values and the POV.

I love rants, so keep 'em coming.

[lomgandsomejelCO]

firechasers is a faggot.

[firechasers]

Yes, and with the demise of the H2 on the horizon, the H3 will soon be the only Hummer sold (new), so it would be best to consider only the H3 in your discussion.

Besides, what concern is it of yours that I (and many others) choose to drive a Hummer?
