Traded in my pickup and with the 72 hour sale (0% for 60 months) my payments are less then I was paying for the truck.... Of course I have 5 more years to pay, but who cares........

Very, very nice !

For those of us not in the States, what donk does it have ?

Ute back seems a bit short though ! :D

Do they offer a longer version ?

No they don't offer a longer version. The rear window folds down into the mid gate and then that folds into the tuck making it a 7 foot bed.

To each his own, but I think those things are a colossal waste of material and gas, and about as good looking as Pontiac Aztec. Have fun at the pumps, it will get 10mpg (24L/100km) on its good days.

Vehicles like these are a major reason GM is going down the toilet.

Don't you feel ashamed every time you drive by one of those itty bitty little funny looking hybrid cars as you cruise in safe air coniditioned comfort??

Can't you hear the animals suffocating through your thick tse tse proof glass??

Don't you feel guilty about all the flood victims in the North East that have to walk since their cars can't bridge the flooded roads while you drive accross little puddles that would swallow Yugos?

You should get a bumber sticker that says "my other car is also a gas guzzler" just to watch the expressions on peoples faces.

my cousin has an h2 in white, it gets 15 highway, lol, and they drove it from houston to chicagoland! I'm not a hummer fan, although I do admire the tire inflation/deflation system- just push a button. these behemoths should be recalled though, they are not for on road use in my opinion.

This hideous Mary-Kay-pink monstrosity shows up every day at 2:45 to pick up her kids at my childrens' elementary school. This huge, pink, chrome-highlighted and never-dirty pig sports the vanity plate "PINKVXN," and is driven by a 30-something Barbie-look-alike. God save us all


LOL at work we charge a extra 10 dollars to do a oil change on em...

I reeeeeeeeealy hope you get to take it off road. One time my step dad let me take his H2 up to my buddy's came for the weekend. Needless to say we took it off roading. Here are some pics:

Our first obstacle:

Interesting responses to this truck - and from Yanks at that !

Do you feel the same way about F250s and Silverados ?

Here in Oz I get amazing comments about my F250 with its 7.3 litre diesel engine.

People can't believe it is more economical than a V6 Hilux or Triton. :)

jaws usually drop when i tell them my cummins gets 16 with a healthy dose of flogging, and that's fairly crappy for a unloaded cummins i got 12-13.5 going 68 mph depending on the mountains with this load, and the only time i had to drop below 68 was when there was a chevy in my way pulling less weight up a mountain, and they were promptly treated to a cloud of smoke as i passed them uphill :D, the guy i borrowed the trailer from said his 99 chevy bigblock would of gotten around 7 with the same load

probably 15-16k pounds gross but the wind resistaince sucked bad, i was pushing boost going down hill, i am going to get my injection pump bench tuned for a little more performance and hopefully a couple more mpg

Great setup..... I have always liked the Cummins. I just did a 500 mile trip and got 14mpg running between 70-80mph (I have read that in tow expect 8-10mpg). I traded a 2003 Ford F150 Supercrew with the 5.4L. I was getting 15hwy and about 11 in town. In all not much different then what this is getting. I have a K&N cold air intake on order and I hope to get about .5-1mpg more. Took it climbing yesterday and off road it is great. I have owned many 4X4's in my day (un like most you the repliers, I most likely started driving before they were born). The only one that could have given it a match, mind you completely stock, was my 1969 International Scout Half 8 (for those too young to know that is a V8 with only half a bank or a slant four). I will report back in a few months on how I like it. I really can not wait for the snow to fly.......

LOL, that would be an even better bumper sticker.

I was thinking of getting one made for my diesel Excursion that says in big letters "Biodiesel powered" and then right below it in small print "(100% whale oil)". I'd slap it right next to my Greenpeace sticker.

Back to the original post, nice H2. If you do wheel it please, please get a decent winch. My brother in law burried his once up to the door sills, had to get the farm owner and his john deer to pull him out.

i like my diesel because i can get some 100% tuna free dolphin fat and render it into fuel then head over to a peace protest and roll some coal at em for a laugh and be helping the enviorment at the same time :D
