Wow what a thread
I remember when I was happy to own a 1973 Pontiac Bonneville clamshell tailgate wagon with rust spots all over it. It was transportation and I owned it. I was proud of my 1974 Ford f-100 with the gold centered bullet hole wheels. Mustangs, camaros, Vegas', bugs then came my first Jeep wrangler. I was proud of that Jeep. I fixed her up. I spent lot of time and alot of money "at the time" on 'er.
In that time in my life I had way more time than money. Now I have more money than time. Where in the past a $79 body lift and 8 hours of my hard work was the only way my stuff was going to get lifted. Now I order whatever I want and have employees install it for me.
Will my h2 go off road? doubtful but, they are building a house around the corner from me and sometimes a few clods of dirt get on the street. Therefore I believe that I am going to install a set of 37x13.5 Mickey Thompson Baja claw radial tires with the new MT beadlock wheels along with a some kind of a 4-6inch lift kit. A Magnacharger for that extra little oomph in case I need to clear that mud clod out of the tires, 2 winches one for the front and one for the back. While I'm at it I'll install a DVD player with surround sound and maybe 3 or 4 LCD screens so I can watch a movie in my air conditioned H2 after I use onStar to call a tow truck to pull me off this slick spot on the road because I just don't feel like getting out and using the winch.
Maybe I should have bought one of these instead of my "no off-roadin" H2.

I am as Proud of my H2 as I was my 1973 clamshell Pontiac. If folks are proud of their jeeps thats great. I have customers that are damn proud of there suzuki sidekicks and geo trackers.
Who am I to judge another mans life and who is he to judge mine.
