Why in the hell does everyone admire my awesome H2, and then ask what kind of gas mileage it gets? Jesus.

I respond with "Funny you should mention that. It's a little known fact that the H2 is equipped with a nano-technology hydrogen fuel cell that allows it to get anywhere from 47-54 miles per gallon."

You should see the looks on their faces....Try it. It's worth the chuckle.

I told a fib the other day. NO, it wasn't "I'll tell you when it's gonna blow" so quit it. I said it gets 35-40mpg. Should have seen the look on their faces. They didn't know what to do.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Almost everytime I fuel up someone inside or outside asks me , "So how far will that 60 dollars get you" Or "So what kind of mileage do youget out of that thing?"

These vehicles are actually the reason the United States has to start wars with middle eastern countries to bully them for their oil reserves. Europeans don't seem to have these problems. So what happens when the bush family can't steal any more petro? Convert your H2 to propane? Good luck off road with propane power.

Ever been to Europe? Ever seen how much fuel costs are there? Just plain dumb.

By the way, how many "middle eastern countries" has the US started wars with?

Hey the faster we use the oil up the less he needs to worry about it! I thought of a new bumper sticker to drive the liberial weenies nuts:

"Drive a Prius..I need the gas"

Fighting wars becasue of Hummers. Now I like mine even more if you feel that way. Hey, we could always let China have the oil. They would do great things with it right?

Funny! If they drive a car, buy food (like pizza every day), or have utilities (service and delivery) they burn the same gas! You don't see these bums complaining about truckers or construction equipment fuel consumption....they'd probably have a few teeth missing (if they didn't already)!

Also what the idiots don't understand is that there are tons of chemicals that are by-products of refining gasoline. These products go into millions of things that we use everyday and we need to grow our economy. Whoever controls the oil controls the world. Also what oil did we ever steal? Seems to me we are BUYING the oil. If we didn't buy it, somebody else will

I hope ya'll don't mind me steppin in here. I own a totally different kind of gas guzzler and I bet I get worse gas mileage than a hummer (~8mpg on a good day with the wind) and I spew probably a hundred times more fumes in the air than a hummer due to an older engine.

So, why doesn't the faggot liberal maggot go ahead and say what most all the liberals want -they want us to drive what they say we should drive and do what the govenment says we should do. The damn gas burning is just an excuse. They use excuses to ban something they don't want, are scared of (guns), or can't afford. God forbid anyone should be different. Goddam Communists. I'll buy a one-way ticket for one. And no, by God, I'm not rich, I AM a conservative. If a man can make the money he should spend it the way he wants. More power to you, just don't let the damn liberals have it.

BTW - I have a near cherry 1978 Chevy Blazer Bonanza Edition (rare) w/factory 400 sb. 14 bolt 1 ton rearend, 3/4 ton front 8 lug. I don't have a Hummer, I'm waiting for them to wear out so I can get one cheap! All of them are too new to mess up anyway.

I'm always amazed how the most foul language and the least tolerant concepts come from those calling themselves "liberals," i.e., the "open minded ones." They are the first to shout down an opposing view, quick to destroy/deface private property they disapprove of, and unhesitatingly filibuster rather than permit a fair vote on a contrary idea.

The "liberals," and especially the self-anointed "liberal elite," are out of touch with mainstream America. That is why they must resort to their anti-democratic tactics. Hilary, Harry, Nancy, and John -- -- the gang of no ideas. We are witnessing the last flickers of a dying anti-intellectual ember.

Great post BlazerDoug. There are some who would now better but, that has got to be the best or one of the best first posts. maybe some of the long timers know other. i think and interesting topic.

On the questions about MPG. I do not know if it is just the south or what. Most ask and it seems to be just a way of breaking the ice to get to see the Mall Queen and make convo. When I tell them pre supercharger it is 13 Avg. their response is usually more times than not that My old rag or my truck whatever does not ge that good. so far never had bad reply about MPg.

I'm truly sick of all you sorry sap sucking leaf lickers and all the freakin movie stars who drive the Prius and claim that's their only car and proud of it, and then take a LIMO everywhere they go!!
Yeah, the H2 uses some gas but I bet you spend 2x the gas a Hummer uses stuck in Long Island traffic!! http://photos.imageevent.com/benza/movingpics/moon.gif </div></BLOCKQUOTE>Don't forget about the private jets and yachts.

Posted this on another thread but certainly applies here:

Worried about gas mileage....get the H3. Want more offroad capability, go with the H1. If you are looking for all the creature comforts, plus ability to offroad, H2 is a good choice. You don't buy something shaped like a brick for aerodynamics. I have as high as 14mpg on highway roadtrip and as low as 10.9 in the city driving with heavy traffic. I have heard of small modifications such as air filter change or a microchip can improve that number. I think the highest I read on here was 17-19 mpg, but don't have first-hand knowledge.

I was looking at other vehicles before I purchased the H2, and none of them could drive off the dealership lot (without going through alot of add-ons & heavy modification) and hit the trails except the H2. No vehicles with a spoiler can do the trails without damage. A six-banger Jeep didn't have the acceleration for highway onramps.

I have driven lots of other 4WD vehicles (including Dodge Ramcharger, Ford Bronco, Chevy Blazer, Old Jeeps, etc.). Although I had always purchased Fords in the past, I was done looking at Ford because of their poor service department here and never honoring warranty work with family and friends who drove Ford.

NEVER let any naysayers tell you what to buy because they don't approve! Most of them who come here to bash the H2 are all FUH2 members (they flip off the trucks when nobody is looking or the owner can't see them).

The main reason I know they are full of $hit is that they don't go after other vehicles (like duallies, delivery vans, Fedex & UPS, busses, semis, etc.) who have far worse mileage or use alot more gas.

They are jealous small minded folk who only hate what they will never be able to obtain in life. I think most of them are missing from a Howard Dean or George Soros seminar somewhere.

I know this is not an option of doing to a new Hummer. But diesels do get better mileage in a heavy vehicle. So maybe check on one in a Hummer.

I am currently looking for a 4BT for my Blazer. 4 cyl diesel that rivals the small block for power - more torque, little less HP, but can expect 30+ mpg on highway. A buddy put one in an M715 with aftermarket A/C and gets 30+ mpg. An M715 is 7000+ lbs (i think) (1 1/4 ton military vehical). These came in Frito Lay trucks. They are bolt-in (motor mounts and bell housing) for chevys. They weigh a little more than a small block. There is also a 6BT but think real heavy.
