<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">I am new to this forum but I'm wondering if a few of you guys could find a little time to help me out. I am a junior and California Univ. of PA and taking oral communications right now. I have been asked to present my speeches on SUV's vs. Hybrids (which I'm sure many of you despise haha). Anyways Please take a few minutes and answer some (or preferbly all) the questions you feel comfortable answering. Also any comments you would like to add is greatly appreciated as I would like many opinions for speech....
So here are a few questions...
1) Why did you purchase an H2? (do you use it offroad, or just like the size and comfort etc.)
2) When purchasing did you consider the gas mileage? Would this have impacted you differently if you knew the situation w/ prices now?
3) What kind of mileage are you personally experiencing?
4) Have any of you claimed the vehicle for business purposes?
5) Have you been involved in an accident in your H2? If so, where you injured?
6) And finally please feel free to add any of your own opinions. I am open for anything including phone interviews and or personal emails.
Thank you very much I appreciate any help you guys give.

1. Size comfort capabilty.
2. Not at all. Cost saving is minimal even when compared to hybrid. A couple thousand dollars max. If you really want to save money buy a cheaper car. I could have saved 36,000 dollars if only I had purchased that Ford Taurus..
3. 11.7 average
4. Yes God bless George Bush
5. No but two of my friend have and reported little to no damage to H2 while other vehicle was inoperable.
6. This is a great truck that gets the same or better gas mileage as other trucks in the past such as the Ford Bronco and K-5 blazer. Its emissions are much lower, and the truck is much better for the enviroment in comparision. If the enviromentalists really cared or had a set of balls they would pursue things with little or no emission controls, like boats. Oh wait, boats have broad public appeal, and people might see them for the whack jobs they are.
