I hope it works out for you but you'll be back.
About 5 months ago, I bought my wife an '08 Jeep Wrangler. I bought her an automatic AND a 2WD. I figured it would be cheaper to buy, she doesn't go off-road and would be better on gas.
Better on gas my ass... I'm lucky if I can get 17 mpg. That's RIDICULOUS for a V6 2WD automatic.
When I sold my H2 about 3 months ago, I bought a Rubicon Wrangler... installed a liftkit, flares and wheels and tires. It's a great vehicle but even with a 6 speed on the highway, I get 12mpg. That's RIDICULOUS.
The thing rattles, (thank God I have a hardtop on it), steers all over the place and lasted for 2 weeks before I put it up for sale and I bought another H2.
In fact, I still have the Jeep, it hasn't sold but I don't care, I'm just glad I got into another H2.
Like I said, hope it works out for you but trying to compare any Jeep to an H2 is like comparing hotdogs to steak.
Good luck, talk to you soon when you come back.
