Take a look at the pictures that edmunds.com posted http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif I don't know if he actually got an H2 as part of the deal, but you'd think that if the story is focused on the H2 they'd put up pictures of an H2 with the right captions.
He looks like he's thinking, "it's just an H3, how 'm I gonna fit in that thang."

Reggie Bush Gets Two Hummers for Going Second in NFL Draft
Date posted: 05-02-2006
NEW YORK — In a ceremony at Radio City Music Hall this past weekend, Hummer General Manager Martin Walsh gave football star Reggie Bush the keys to a pair of Hummers.
Bush was the number-two NFL draft pick and will play for the New Orleans Saints.
The gift was part of Hummer's sponsorship as the official vehicle of the NFL draft. Why the big man needed two Hummers was not immediately clear.
The choice of the H2 as the gifted vehicle was also interesting; the Detroit News is speculating today that the original Hummer, the H1, is quite possibly on its way out. The paper cited Walsh as saying the H2 could become the flagship Hummer sometime soon, since it is "seen by consumers as…more representative of the Hummer brand than the H1."
What this means to you: If gas prices keep spiking, NFL players may be among the few who make enough money to keep these babies gassed up
