Christa,
I think you will find that most folks here love there H2's and would not drive anything else even if given a choice.
Sales people can be pushy but the truck sells its self. You either love it or you don't I haven't ran into many people that take a middle ground approach. As you are familiar with larger trucks i.e. your crew cab you are already familiar with blind spots and I suspect know how to deal with them. Because of its width, parking in mall parking spots will be a pain so if that is going to be the H2's primary use, know that you will have door dings within a week, or your going to be doing some hiking. Hopefully not much more will happen, there are stories on this forum from folks who have had negative experiences at the hands of some environmentalist and you live in there backyard so hopefully you will be spared those experiences but you should be aware they do happen.
Develsfans suggestion of taking your H2 out for an off-roading experience is a solid suggestion. It is something that I believe every H2 owner should have to do before being allowed to purchase the rig. At least it should be mandatory in order to retain a drivers license for those who choose to drive the H2. The upcoming trips to Moab would be a great experience for you and you’d get a chance to meet Drty and Dennis. Kind of sink or swim mentality…

You will not meet a better couple of guys. They truly are there to help if needed.

Really.

While Moab has little in common with urban scrawl when you have completed some of the trails in Moab you will understand the capabilities of your rig and all of sudden curbs, center mediums and other road obstacles don’t seam so imposing. Good luck and happy hunting.
