Re: R.I.P.
I know the pain of hitting a tree while trying to dodge freelance pussy in the road. Ended up with just about the same injuries but I didn't lose the H2 in the accident. Glad you are OK and the truck protected.
Now on the weekends for fun I go on kittie hunting trips in the truck just to see how many I can flatten. Give it a try it is theraputic.

Re: R.I.P.
I'm really glad you're ok. Trees are tough!
This is the third story that I know of people totalling vehicles to dodge animals. I just run them over. Countless squirrells, a big big bobcat or small mountain lion, a few cats, an owl, dozens of birds. I had a lady dodging a cat once almost head on me. I saw the cat before she did and predicted her move. Why she'd ever in the world think that cat was worth both our lives I'll never know.
I dodge and brake for large deer, moose, cows, horses, and really big pigs because the physics rule and even then, the animals better to hit than a tree, or an oncoming car because in THOSE instances physics rule. I got rid of the Mini Cooper because I almost ate a cow, completely uncooked one night.

Re: R.I.P.
Dude, It awesome that you ok!
When I get crap from the tree huggers, I ask them what they'd rether be in a wreck in, my H2 or a Prius...
These pics say way more then a 1000 words. Wow
Glad you're ok!!
Good luck recovering, I had a few cracked ribs awhile back and so i can feel your pain (still, literally...like 4 months later!)
Plus, buying a new vehicle is half the fun as well!

Glad you are OK. Lucky it wasn't in an H3. You'd be dead.

....and they say us H2 owners dont care about mother nature...
Worst thing if the pussy as indeed a log, then you deserve getting smacked by that tree!! LOL!!
Anyways, you'll get another one, especially knowing now how well it can take a punch. Not even Van Dam can spin-kick this things and get away with.
Hey, did you know the origins of the H2?
Well, Chuck Norris was out day walking at Moab, where a large mountain obstructed his path. He then roundhoused kicked it, and when the dust settle, their stood the first H2. Thus, he traveled in his H2 in search of more mountains until the trails we now were formed. This was later know as the Big-Bang!

Re: R.I.P.
Hoping for a fast and successful recovery! A while back I read an article on how large SUV's had an "unfair advantage" in collisions. In your case it was a tree but despite the negative press, there is nothing else I would put my wife and kids in. I am cognizant that trucks don't have the same safety requirements as passenger cars. Nevertheless, in a head on collision between my wife's Hummer or a Camry, I'd choose the former.

Re: R.I.P.
the unfair advantage come from tree-hugging advocates that swear by their no-shower philosophy and stick with a beat-up VW van. I love those vans, however, if choosing a vehicle to protect yourself from those that bought their licensed, probably that same tree-hugger, the h2 is pratically unaffected by most things you would encounter. Just the other day their was an accident where a m. carlo hit a light post. The car was GONE! Not something you want to take a chance on when your little-ones.
Also, those comments are probably boasted by the same people who say that a h2 is nothing more than a tahoe with a h2 shell.
