Because I can.
I can wheel in leather comfort with A/C, heated seats, satellite radio, with my wife, 2 daughters and GSD. I can drive 1850 miles to Moab, wheel it hard there and drive it back.
I can tow a buddies Jeep Cherokee that's too modified for street to trails 5 hours away wheel with Jeeps on D60s and 39s and turn around and tow that Jeep back home after doing so. I can tow my flat bed trailer loaded up with 10K lbs of tractor and equipment from my farm to my house in the city and back. I can then hook to my 4 bike, enclosed motorcycle trailer and drag it anywhere I want.
Name one other vehicle that can do all of that.

Re: H2 vs JEEP End all showdown in MOAB VIDEO!
Remind me not to be on the road with you towing that load with a half ton.
I tow machines with real trucks, with safety as a main concern. I wheel with a real wheeling rig, with fun and safety, ie roll cage as main concerns. And i drive a Subaru Legacy GT with leather air and all that crap for trips. I guess i prefer to have vehicles that are all great at what they are meant for, instead of one that does everything half assed.

There are more 1 ton components on an H2 than there are 1/2 ton.
