Desperately desire to own a Hummer, but the aging hippy inside says "No way, man!?" Well, lucky for you there's a way to enjoy the well-known Hummer appearance and off-road ability without needing to purchase a vehicle that looks like it's capable of carrying a small platoon or needs a gun mount on the roof. It's the H3, an H2 look-alike built from the sensible foundation that spawned the Chevrolet Colorado pickup. The H3 is reasonably sized, rather roomy inside and quite good off-road. The addition of a more powerful in-line five-cylinder engine this year should silence critics of the slow-moving 2006 model. Best of all, despite the added ponies, the H3 suffers no measurable loss in fuel economy.
