With regards to increasing the octane level on the H2, I agree you will always get a better ride uping the octane. But that is with any vehicle, whether its a H2 or a Ford Escort. With respect to recommended octane, it is what the manufacturer specifies as an octane that will not damage the engine over the life of the vehicle.

I also will pull out the owners manual and double check my eyesight.

Interesting topic of discussion, maybe I will have to experiment with high octane as well.
