I think these two videos really say it all.

Jeep VS. Hummer I

Jeep VS. Hummer II

Kia and Hyundai are made by the same company, though.

i don't have my jk yet, but i really could care less if someone said it looks like a hummer, odds are they're driving some lame ass camry.

:edit: here's a quick comparison of a 4 door rubi and an h3, neither of them are mine. if it's yours and you don't like me using your photos let me know and i'll remove them.:


of course we know the difference in an h3 and a jeep but from the outside looking in it's easy to see the similarities. for example at first glance i would think the hyundai sonata looks exactly like a kia spectra but the kia owner would not. apples and oranges, i know but you get the point. hopefully.

He told her that their ride was a Hummer. She told me she loved my Jeep...dude was bummin'. He still had his temp-tags on.

There really is no comparison. I'd take the JK anytime.

I agree Robar, The JK is evolution of an original, not a made over Tahoe, Yukon, or Trailblazer. The Unlimited just grew an extra set of doors this year.

Oh yeah, I see that now, my bad Phish. That's what 7-8 hours of driving will do to you I guess. Thanks for the compliment.

Nahh, I didn't mind you using the pic, no big deal. What can I say, I like black.
