Default Stopped by to say good bye.....

Well guys, last week I put my H2 outside with a for sale sign on the windshield.

The truck lasted a day and a half and was snatched up by a schoolteacher already driving an H2.

I guess the supercharger and liftkit helped sell it. F or 19K, it was a hell of a deal... I had almost that much just in mods.

I absolutely loved the truck but I don't see gas prices going down any time soon and if what they say about gas prices being upwards of 9-10 per gallon in a year or two, I simply don't want to spend that much for gas.

And to top it off, with the announcement that GM was closing their Hummer division, that was just another kick in the pants.

Thanks guys for all the help. Other than the childish bickering that goes on sometimes, this has been a cool place and definitely a must have for an H2 owner.

Take it easy....

Mark

Gas prices have capped, dropped, and will drop further. They've realized that people have come to the point where they're modifying their lives vs. biting the bullet and paying for gas, their only option is to go down.

Gas won't reach 9-10 a US gallon, it'll destroy the country.

The bit about 9-10 dollars a gallon is supposed speculation by the "experts".

Even if they are wrong, one thing is for sure... gas WILL go up. It may not hit 9-10 but I assure you the 2-3 per gallon days will be gone before long.

I personally think it's bull**** that we're paying what we're paying but they're already paying 9-10 per gallon in Europe, 11 in Italy.

The point is, even if it only gets up to 5-6 per gallon, I don't want to pay that at 7-8 miles to the gallon.

The truck had 103K miles on it. It was in EXCELLENT condition but it was time....

Anyway, thanks guys for everything.

Much appreciated...

Mark

You are correct. Now that there is serious discussion about drilling at home and developing alternative fuels, expect to see it come down even more. OPEC is just like any other business market. If we significantly decrease our dependence on foreign oil they lose money. Simple as that. They will now seek a price level for gas that maximizes their profit but still makes developing alternative fuels less attractive. I would not be surprised to see it go down .50 a gallon before November.

No wonder they want Obama to get elected.

Who the heck said that? Gas prices have actually gone down. Sorry you sold your truck so inexpensively.
