My first encouter with a H2 Hummer...

So im driving to work today through a residential neighborhood, just going the speed limit. I hear a honk, i look in the rear view, and its a huge H2 hummer. I see him wanting to pass me/take a left turn, i was gonna turn anyways so i engine brake to turn, i suppose he could have hit me from the side at his angle. After the turn its a decline, and with all that speed from a 40mph 90 deg turn i engine brake some more. One street later he passes me on a 2 lane road (1 in each direction), even though i was still going speed limit in residential 25mph. Does an abrupt U turn at an intersection and ..double parks (its a strictly 2 lane road)

That whole time im just thinking...he must be angry that i sip gas, and he guzzles it. lol and when he accelerated to pass me, i bet his inst. mpg went to 1.

Talk about polar opposites in terms of size and mpg...

Anyone else have some stories like that?
