Left work the other day and got a shock. Parked next to my D3 was a brand new Hummer. My god it made my car look like a mini. I was so used to having the tallest car in the office carpark and then this turns up!!
Brought me down a peg or 2 i can tell you.
God knows how that guy drives it around dublin. '05 Discovery TDV6 S+ Commercial, Zambezi Silver, Ebony Black Cloth.

 How does anybody drive around Dublin! last time I was there, It took me hours to get through. Have they finished the motorway yet?
I was heading for Dun Laoghaire and the road just ended, got completely lost. The chap I asked directions to just said "Keep heading down hill and you will find it"
This was before the D3 though, next time I cross the pond, the sat nav should help.

Don't fret. Ask the guy to go off road.
Ive seen two H2s get 200 feet down a trail and break an axel.
The H2 is poser truck for the bling bling crowd.
Its a knock-off of a 'real' H1 built on cheap chassis.

A Hummer is just a Hummer. A Land Rover goes all the way.

Omaha, was it a real "Hummer"? The H1 instead of the smaller H2 (or H3).

The motorway is finished, a few months ago. About 3 times over buget, but thats how we like to do things here. A rule of thumb when driving in dublin, never try to get anywhere in a hurry, poeple can tell and slow you down even more. And when it rains..........
