This months Jp magazine feautred an article H2 vs Rubicon. It is really good. My favorite qoute is " H2: which button means "climb" again?" If you don't read this magazine you should check it out |

I saw it, didn't read it, but looked at the silly pictures. I like the one that compared them on a steep hill climb - Jeep "Is this the top?" H2 - "Beep, buzz, beeep, ding-ding." Or something like that. I saw an H2 on a flat bed yesterday - broke down somewhere, didn't have a speck of dirt on it. Must have tried to get into a mall parking lot without using the sloped part of the curb or something. |

I passed a yellow H2 yesterday with bright yellow rims.......... It was so purdy......... Although I pass a 2000 white H1 every night on the way home and drool over it while waiting at the traffic light. gp

Saw a pimp H2 today a this ricer shop in town. Had damn 22" chromies with some low profile tires. Step boards sat about 4 inches off the ground. Too funny. By contrast, I saw a great looking '97 AA Yellow D90 with fiberglass hard top at a indy Land Rover/Mercedes dealer about a block from my office today. Hmmm, what can I sell.... Ron Ward |

lots of those bling bling H2's around here (Tulsa)too Ron, while they are at it they should just chrome and gold plate the whole damm truck. Those yellow H2's remind me of a big block of cheddar cheese, a true reflection of the cheesy drivers that own them. I really abhor those H2's but the H1 now that's a real and only Hummer. A couple of weeks ago a H2 caught up real fast to me from behind slowed down, looked at my beat up old Rover and wanted to race me, what a putz. I doubt that any H2 owner would ever take that silly thing off-road, it might get dirty and oops scratched. |

Tahoe, Escalade, H2, they are all the same POS's that GM spits out for mass consumption. |

Last week, we went to the local mountains to play in the snow. At about 4000 ft. level a Highway Patrol checkpoint was set-up to enforce tire chains on vehicles that are non AWD/4x4. The CHP waved me as soon as he recognized the Disco. About 3 cars ahead was a brand spanking new H2 and that put some excitement in me. As we climb higher (destination is around 8000 Ft.) the road gets worst and is icy. I can sense (and see) the TC working. Not too long after that, the H2 was stopped on the road and I stopped and rolled the window down and asked if they were okay. The driver said he was fine but my wife and I thought that he is slipping and wanted to put his tire chains. |
