I ran across this old Autoblog article from 2008 where they compared the H2 to the Landcruiser. It's a pretty good article and a quick read. I mainly liked how the main writer (John Ramsey) approached the comparison objectively with no apparent predispositions regarding the Hummer brand.

One of my favorite bits from the article was:
"[While out on the trail]...one of our companions said of the H2, 'It really is the off-roader for idiots. You can just point it somewhere and run over things.' But he didn't mean it as a compliment. It was then we realized this is simply how it was going to be with the HUMMER. It does everything you want it to, but instead of 'capable,' it's 'the off-roader for idiots.' "

"...just point it somewhere and run over things." LOL! Yep, that sounds about right...and that's what makes it so fcuking AWESOME!

This one was pretty good too...H3T vs. Rubicon: http://www.autoblog.com/2009/06/30/autoblog-comparo-jeep-wrangler-unlimited-rubicon-vs-hummer-h3t/
