Question Whats the Deal?

So are the tree huggers of the world winning or are all these H2 being sold for 2008/9 models.

225 H2's on Ebay. I don't understand it, do you??

The oil companies are winning. Gas is pricey and getting worse. All full size truck sales are down. I'll deal with it. You gotta pay to play!

Some love the rigs so much they really buy them and not really think about all the cost to operate. When it sets in or conditions change like they have they are forced to back out.

It makes it better for the ones who can afford the big boys toys. They find some real bargains. Do feel bad for the onesthat just bought at wrong time maybe.

Fuel prices. H2's just aren't being sold right now. I spoke to my salesman yesterday and our H2 was one of the last they had sold (huge dealer) .. and that was something like 6 weeks ago. We drove up to Pebble Beach last week for a week from LA .. stopped for gas along U.S.1 and paid $5.20 a gallon. It was the only gas station within something like 40 miles, so we put in $30.00. We found out later that it is the town with the highest fuel prices in the U.S. I love my H2 .. wouldn't trade it for anything else. However, I DO miss the better gas mileage I got on my H3.

I think the novelty of them is simply wearing off (as well as the gas prices being so ridiculous). I am on my second H2 and unless something spectacular changes in upcoming designs I don't think that I would buy another.

I had one of the very first ones off the line here in New England when they first came out and for a while it stood out on the street. Now I see 5-10 each day on the roads in my town, and Dover NH is not by any standard a large city. Quite small in fact...

As far as trade-in value they have none! I recently looked into trading my clean 05 Lux with 64k on it in towards a Super Duty or a Suburban and was receiving trade in values of $22-27k. I'd rather pour gas over my hood and watch it melt than to give it away for $22k!

You may see mine here for sale soon. I need something bigger, 2 kids, 4 dogs and a ton of gear every weekend when heading to the lake

I purchased my '05 H2 early last summer from a private party who advertised on Craig's List. At that time about one or two H2 per week showed up for sale on Craig's List (Denver area). I just took a look, as of today there are no less than 30 H2's being advertised for sale on Craig's List going back 30 days!
