It’s no secret that the Hummer H2 Tank SUV is not the most eco friendly when it comes to gas comsumption. In fact, from my research Hummer does not have to particpate in publishing EPA ratings to show consumers the average MPG this vehicle gets. I read several reports of the Hummer averaging anywhere from 7 MPG to 13 MPG. I have a feeling the guy who got 13mpg was driving down hill with the wind going in his direction and the A/C turned off! I happen to love Hummers and secretly, I’ve always wanted to own this big, powerful get outta my way or I will drive over you machine. I think deep down every man wishes he could own one of these at some time in his life.
Just one problem, the fact that the MPG is MIA!
I did the math. The H2 has a 32 gallon tank (sheesh!) and in Phoenix, AZ premium gas is selling for about $3.50 per gallon totalling $112 per fill up. I conservatively used 10 MPG to figure out how many miles a driver would get on one tank and that numbers comes to 320 miles. Thats the exact same mileage I get in a tank with my Nissan 350z and my Pathfinder. One difference, I spend less that $60 to fill up those vehicles!
Hummer drivers, I don’t know how you guys do it. That is one expensive tank. I guess like the saying goes, you’ve got to pay to play. I do have one question. Are there any liberal democrats that own a Hummer? I think I know the answer to that but someone prove me wrong.

I can’t even begin to try and understand what this bitter guy was thinking when he ordered his vanity license plate. What could she have done so bad that you feel the need to tell the entire city you live in and now the entire word (all 3 readers) that your wife is less than perfect. WHY?
Did she lose another sock in the dryer again? Forget to feed the dog? I know that one pisses me off. Maybe she was recording two shows at one time on your DVR and you didn’t get a chance to watch your favorite Rambo rerun on TBS. Aggghhhh! That one kills me.
Maybe this guys was a little excessive to say the least but if it was a point he was trying to make, he sure did a good job of it.

First and foremost a big thanks to Eli from Brooklyn, NY who sent in a few really good vanity license plates. With the big election day right around the corner, there is no better time than to show you guys this Obama 08 vanity/custom license plate. For the readers that have been here before, you may recall Bill Slater and his Obama 08 vanity license plate issued out of Illinois. His democtratic vanity license plate was so popular that it got him an interview from CBS’ own Katie Couric.
Not surprising that we are seeing this custom license plate on this uber-compact turbo charged 200 hp Volkswagon GTI boasting a 21-29 mpg fuel efficiency. I think a real liberal would have opted for the 170 hp TDI model with 30-41 mpg.
I wonder if there are any republicans sporting the MCAIN08 vanity license plate anywhere?
