Steve just isn't the same since he had his H2 detailed. He is wrestling with keeping his H2 and buying an H1, just buying an H1 and selling the H2 or yesterday he said he is seriously leaning toward buying a Land Rover and put a 4" lift on it with some bigger tires! I guess he would leave the group and become part of the L.R. crowd http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif

Maybe some of you can give Steve some input to push him off the fence!

Somehow I find it hard to believe. I think Buckeye is just gettign back at Steve for the H2 Sellout thing. Steve whooped the LRs ass that time, and lived to brag about it. He would never drive one of those POS's...

Got a solution- frontal lobotomy. Either that or SteveR has taken up the crack pipe for the first time. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

I screwed up. I meant to say he's strongly considering a Jeep http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Seriously though, he needs a forum helping hand with his decision. He is apparently not quick to the trigger but the problem is his H2 is sitting in the driveway doing nothing. Before this new consideration he wanted to go out every week.

Just go over to his house in the middle of the night with some tree branches and pinstripe the **** out of it. That will push him over the edge again.

NO! NO! Give it a 4" lift when he's asleep.

why not keep the H2 for a dd and get a ready to go trail only vehicle (jeep or defender) that he won't get freaked out on if he tips it or pinstripes it real bad...a jeep CJ7 would be inexpensive and easy to fix on the trail, plus you don't have to blow your whole wad to get it or keep it up. Additionally the mods are much cheaper and you can usually do them yourself (good reason to get that 150,000 peice craftsman set!!! - at least that's what my wife call it, lol)

BUCKEYE!!!!

What kind of bs are you peddling about me now? About the only thing that is true is that I'm looking into getting an H1. The last time we went out, I left the 2 at home and went riding in the 1's just to get an idea of what it was like.

If I had to have an LR, it would be a D110....but I'd sooner jump on an old Bronco and do it up right. But that's not going to happen....I'm a die-hard Hummer-dude!

Steve,

We know, I was just getting you back http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

If it makes you feel any better I was just outside in the rain washing off the eggs that a couple of little ****s threw on my truck. I actually saw them do it through the window. Lucky for them they sped off before I could get out. I haven't kicked someone in the head for quite some time but I have a feeling it's going to happen soon.

Sorry about the eggs Buckeye...

I told them to aim for the house! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Love the rain: Jawbone Canyon & Sequoia will have snow at higher elevations and we'll definitely find ourselves getting into somem major fun!

Buckeye:

Nice job of getting Steve. I was wondering how long he would let this thread go on before he would respond. He jumped in sooner than I thought he would. Steve after leaving the H2 at home did you drive an H1 off road or just ride along?

I was a Hummer Ho'in that day. I rode in all 4 Hummers: Humvee, H1 soft-top, H1 wagons. I drove 2 of them as well....nothing new, nothing special.

I just LOVE the swell amount of leg-room & comfort provided for the shot-gun passenger...that's gotta be a real gem for long trips of...say...more then 10 minutes. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

The little egg thorws can be a pain. Howver we got back a 8 of thiem last night... I had creep patrol during Trick or Treat.. Was driving one of my personal vec. Lifted 99 Sub.. As I came around a courner I found the 1st 4 young people decorating someones Caddy with eggs.. The look on their face when I lite them up with Reds. Blue and Siren was priceless ( just made me wish I had a Dash camera on the Sub.. Long story short. We now have 8 young people who must clean the neighborhood street for the next 3 months and must keep the driveways of two elderly people free from snow unitl Spring of 04.. Justice has been servedd.

Ha,

That makes me feel better. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif I actually saw these little squirts do it I just couldn't get out fast enough to throw my lacrosse ball at their door. That would have made my night.

Apparently lacrosse is slang for jacking off in canada... they had to rename that new buick in canada because of that.

I have a desire for the H1 also. But mine is to add a rag-top H1 to the garage in addition to the H2, not in place of it. Rover?? that's going to the dark side! Much class, but loses off-road abilities-- kind of bling bling like an escalade in that regard.

Frank....it's like you're reading my mind! (and if that should be the case, tune-in at 1am when I enjoy "brunette hour") http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

That's where I'm headed: keep the 2, add a raggy-1 and be the first guy on the block with 2 H's in the garage!

Can someone pleae tell me what all the hype is about Range Rovers? Have you ever sat in one? The ergonomics can be summed up in one word: awkward! It's like a Jag: all looks and that's about it.....every year they claim to have gotten the bugs out.

They take some two-toned leather, wood-trim and add some snazzy bezels to the instrument package. Slap on an overpriced sticker and associate it with prestige....there it is. It doesn't even have a place to hold your beer, dip or shotgun!
