Why I Love My Hummer H3!

By Julie Mcneill

I am currently leasing a 2008 HUMMER H3 and I love it!

And here are the reasons why...

1.) It is sooo much fun to drive!

2.) I can take my H3 off-road without a stitch of problems or worries. In fact, the H3 can go through every obstacle an H2 can manage and I've even seen it do better than the H2 in a few areas of off-roading!!!

3.) My H3 is unbelievable in wintery snow conditions. It feels like there isn't even any snow on the road. In fact, I have to stop to help pull everyone else out of the ditch on the side of the road! But, that's okay because that's fun, too!

4.) I get up to 20 miles per gallon in my H3 and it takes unleaded fuel! My friends have commented on how much their SUV's get in gas and most of them get less miles to the gallon or have to fill up with premium gas and some of them have both of those downers on their vehicle!

5.) The H3 is quite a unique product. HUMMER's have a mystique about them that no other vehicle on the road have. In fact, a customer of mine recently told me that she has never had as many compliments on a vehicle as she has had on her H3. And, she even previously drove Mercedes-Benz's, Volvo's, and BMW's, just to name a few.

6.) Then, of course, there is the whole safety factor. I have never felt safer in a vehicle than when I'm driving my H3. H3's are extremely durable, stable, and dependable... they must get this from their father, the military veteran... H1.

So, there you have it! The H3 is not only for the rugged outback... it is also GREAT for everyday driving and is practical and extremely fun to drive!

2011 Honda Element Review

By Daren C Cari  

When it comes to listing the top compact SUVs out there, the 2011 Honda Element will be somewhere at the top of the list. It gets a 9, out of 23 of the finest compact SUVs in the market, and this is after reviewing and analyzing over sixty published reviews regarding the same type of vehicles. The vehicle has gone through a lot of test driving in order to list it as an effective machine in the sports utility sector, and it does stand out. Essentially, the Honda Element epitomizes utility. The majority of reviewers are satisfied in that aspect, and so the buyers can trust that they won't be disappointed if that's what they are looking for in the vehicle.
The vehicle comes in two models both of which offers two wheel drive and of course the 4 wheel drive. The models are the LX and EX.
A decent but edgy type of vehicle to move around with in the city or outside in a rough terrain while maintaining a stable drive is what attracts buyers to this particular SUV. It is durable and a lot of buyers find that most important. So what's to look out for in the small SUV? A LOT of space. In fact, the vehicle boasts a 74.6 cubic feet of cargo space; and with the back seats folding capability, you really have space in there.
Performance
This SUVs performance rating may very much have to do with individuals, preference, because a lot of people like its sturdy and noisy ride, while some don't. But other than that, the easy navigation and plenty of room inside make it worthwhile.
Exterior
The exterior is a winner for the 2011 Honda Element; in fact a lot of recent models of SUVs have copied the Element's type of exterior when it hit the market back in 03, so the 2011 is still a winner in that aspect.
Interior
Ample space for cargo, which is always a major plus, but the passengers may not have the same spacious area because the seats aren't all that big. The interior is actually made in a way that allows easy cleaning for you, with the rubber floors and a lot of plastic. This takes care of its utility aspect and gives you a chance to get dirty.
Safety
When it comes to safety, again, the utility vehicle doesn't disappoint. In fact it gained a top pick in safety from insurance, so the only question is whether or not it's reliable. Of course the safety having been considered, there's little to worry about.
Reliability
It scores an almost perfect mark on reliability, getting a 9.0 for the predicted reliability test ratings. To sum it up, if you're shopping for a sport utility vehicle, this one embodies utility. Plus, there's always the 36000mile/ 3year warranty to add to the credits.

Ford versus Holden

By Alastair Harris  

Within Australia the two main car manufactures were Ford and Holden. Holden originally an Australian company, since brought out by GM and Ford one of the earliest sellers of motor vehicles in Australia, are thus both seen to have an Aussie history that other car builders just don't have. Because of this when it comes to talking to Australian Petrol heads, better known as Bevans, one to the biggest arguments is which is better Fords or Holden's? normally referring to the Falcon vs. Commodores. Normally 6 cylinders, but they also both come in V8 editions.
Let me join the debate by saying both are seriously lacking.
In the course of my employ I have driven or been a passenger in both vehicles in a variety of demanding situations and at speed and I have criticisms of both.
In the case of the Falcon's, Ford has a long history of having what can only be described as 'loose' steering, in particular at high speed the Falcon's begin to 'float'. Just when you want a car to be holding stronger to the ground with great ground force they feel very soft on the road with the slightest bump pushing it all over the place. The latest editions of the Falcons I will admit have allot more pick up, power, acceleration, but without increased control this just makes it scary. Also at the top end, the pinging of the engine is a worry. The sound of the pistons hitting the head and producing what can only be described as a unique sound informs you this is not a performance vehicle.
Another problem with the Falcon is it goes into a rear end or tail skid very easily. That's alright for someone who knows what to do when this happens but very disturbing habit for anyone who's a bit green to driving.
The Commodores no Angel either. It does stick to the ground allot better than the Ford Falcon, but the latest editions seem gutless in comparison to driving a Ford. Further under heavy braking the steering control is not as good as the Falcon. Although not as easy as a Falcon to get into a skid, when it does skid it tends to be the more dangerous front wheel skid. Make sure the ABS is working or your in trouble.
In both cars at speed you could almost swear the fuel gauge is going down before your very eyes. Given today's fuel prices I don't know how anyone can afford to drive either of these large cars at around $100 a pop.
I can hear some people saying, come on, the Holden's and Fords dominate Australia's premier race the Bathurst 1000. In response, its not hard to dominate a race where the rules are doctored to ensure that Holden's and Fords are the only real contenders.
Let's face it Falcon's and Commodores are made to be FAMILY sedans. Sorry to let down all you Bevan's out there, but they are designed for mum, dad and the kids. Unless seriously modified with sports packs and more, the average Falcon and Commodore is designed for a nice Sunday drive, not as a hoon mobile.
If you disagree with this article please feel free to add your own comment.
(Please also note I strongly suggest you always obey the road rules and vehicle safety requirements. If you want to race or trial a vehicle do it at an official approved facility or circuit. Obey the rules, wear a seat belt, don't speed, stay alert and NEVER drink and drive - the article is personal opinion and should not be considered expert advice).

The Undeniable Name of GMC Trucks

By Vanessa Beaty

The General Motors Corporation, formerly known as GMC Truck is a name that is very well known throughout the world. In 2007 this company was GM's second largest selling vehicle division coming in close behind Chevrolet. GMC was originally dubbed the Rapid Motor Vehicle Company by Max Grabowski when he established the company in 1901. This was when some of the earliest commercial trucks were designed. By 1909 the company was turned over to General Motors which then formed the basis for General Motors Truck Company.
Since that time GMC has been manufacturing trucks that are used throughout the world. Thought their personal and smaller vehicles are very popular, the trucks from this company are highly appreciated by truck drivers around the world. A book was released by GMC in 2002 that details the company's history, their ups and downs and the process by which General Motors acquired the truck division.
The main commercial vehicle distribution is in vans, light duty and medium duty trucks although fire trucks, ambulances and heavy duty trucks and buses have been manufactured under the GMC Truck name in the past. Although GMC and Chevrolet trucks are virtually the same they do have some distinctive differences that have survived throughout the years. The trim, engine options and typically the price are a few of the differences that are very evident between the two. Once the production of the quad headlight designs were halted, the two truck brands became even more similar, much to the point of confusion for many drivers.
Of course serious truck drivers will know the difference immediately. While Chevrolet trucks have a distinct look about them today, GMC trucks will always bear the same quality that has endured form more than 100 years. Drivers who choose this brand of truck are typically not easily swayed to other models. With features ranging from standard power outlets and cruise control on the inside to heated and lighted mirrors, running lights and roof mounted air deflectors on the outside, General Motors is producing top of the line trucks that all drivers are proud to sit in and drive. From the smaller personal sedans and SUVs to the heavy duty freight haulers, these trucks have withstood years of history to become one of the top chosen truck brands for truck drivers everywhere. It is not completely surprising that the GMC name has become somewhat synonymous with commercial driving.
