Ah, get aff yer high horse! So what if the tires would cost a fortune, you
think some p-zeroes and bbs wheels for your "sensible" 911 would be much
cheaper? This is just a fantasy, parking is NOT an issue, besides I bet
the hummer uses some hideously thirsty turbo diesel.

Maybe I should infuriate you more by mentioning that my second pick would be
an Unimog - big expensive wheels and thirsty engine also.
