Default Re: Where Did H2's go?

I saw one H2 on the Interstate this past weekend when I made a 500 mile round trip--as I was driving my mini-van instead of the deuce.
For me, it's not cost effective to spend $130 or so on gas for that trip when the van does it for about $80.
Hell, I don't even drive the 2 to work much anymore as that's a 30 mile round trip averaging at best 12 mpg or so. Figure at average $3.40 a gallon it costs me roughly $7 a day if I want to drive it to work. It costs almost half that to drive the mini-van.
I wouldn't be crunching numbers near as much, and never really gave a crap before my wife needed back and hip sugeries with medical issues that took her out of the work/getting paid plan in life. Now I've got to spend my money on surviving and avoid the luxury of driving the 2 very often.
So, take one story of a deuce being off the road and multiply it by however many other people have their stories.
Plus consider that some just don't drive them during the week and keep them in the garage for weekend fun. In addition, you've got relatively low production numbers and attrition--how many are in the wrecking yards now?
We've got to face it---we're driving a dinosaur.
On the other hand, when I mentioned to my sister (who lives in Phoenix) how rare it is to see an H1, she was amazed as apparently they're plentiful out there!
