A two-seat roadster is FAR more useless than a Hummer H1.

Maybe if you are invading Quwait.



Obviously nobody cares they are going to stop selling them because nobody was buying them in the first place. Sales dictate production.

I see most H1s doing duty out here in the southwest, giving Grand Canyon tours and the like. I rarely ever see one in "civilian" use, so this is really no big deal at all, and anyone that truly wants one will likely be able to get their hands on a cheap one that just got cut from a tour fleet.

I would have to agree on technical terms with Umrswimr though: roadsters are the most useless cars around, especially if you take into account the number of potential uses for that type of vehicle versus something like an H1.

If I can fit my roadster into urban parking spots it is far more useful than one that will not. An H1 will not fit into my work parking ramp, that makes it therefore completely useless.

Ummmm....no. Its a car that is about 4 times the size of an s2000, and only seats 4.

So...it is the most useless.

a two seater is only FAR more useless, because the Hummer has so much wasted "use" for a street vehicle...
