I can't wait until the new International CXT comes out, it's going to really piss-off the wackos!

World’s Biggest Production Pick-up Truck To Be Unveiled

[BenLurkin]

Can people really be such morons that they get worked into a lather over this guy's choice of car?

Maybe he's just a bad driver.

[SmithL]

the International CXT is built on the same platform as dump trucks and snowplows.

Dayum!

I'm trying to convince my wife that $115K isn't too much to pay for a truck that I have ABSOLUTELY NO USE FOR.

California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger reportedly owns five Hummers, but even the Governator is feeling the heat. During last year's gubernatorial campaign, he spent an estimated $20,000 to $35,000 to convert one of his fleet to hydrogen fuel, prompting political rival Arianna Huffington to condescendingly dub him a "Hummer environmentalist."

Is Arriana still flying around the world on private planes?

People that get so upset over the type of vehicle some civilian drives should really get a life.

Didn't Arianna Huffington drive her husband to homosexuality?

[octobersky]

Only if they are going there anyway. /sarcasm

[Mogger]

Then there's my 12 MPG Mercedes Benz Unimog.

I balance that off with my 60 MPG Rokon Trailbreaker.

Didn't Arianna Huffington drive her husband to homosexuality?

He was bi before he met Arianna. I've heard he was really a strange person to work for. Supposedly he banned coffee at his dad's oil and gas exploration company, because he was afraid that they would spill it and stain the carpets.

It's like the anti-hunters calling sportsmen (and women) not conservationist enough. Heck Ducks Unlimited, Bass Pro, etc put more back into nature than they remove.

"He shrugs off the gestures from other motorists." Envy
Maybe that same gesture [or, rather, a hand making it] should be incorporated into Hummer H1 as a hood or grille ornament?

[Dan Evans]

"After teaching DPS (Denver Public Schools) high school kids for 15 years, I know how to take heat."

Maybe school teachers are overpaid.

[isthisnickcool]

Hummers are all over the place in Texas. Nobody pays much attention to them. I'd suggest giving the owners the finger would not be too bright. at least not here in Texas. That's not a good idea at all.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Eco-Nazi nightmare.

Closeup of my Rokon two wheel drive motorcycle.

And from the rear:

It'll carry 1000 pounds and tow 3000 pounds.

Will climb straight up until I bail out!

Let me ask you a question. Are SUV's so hated by some people that they would sneak into a dealership at night and torch them?

The term "envirowhackos" wasn't coined with no reason.
