I think the weight issue refers to GVWR not curb weight. The vehicles listed in the article would have a GVWR of 6000 pounds. GVWR for H2 is 8600 lbs. and curb weight of 6400+lbs. Interesting to note however of the 38 listed vehicles H1 nor H2 are not mentioned in article. Journalists remember it when they want to slam it for gas mileage though!

When dealing with IRS be sure and keep a detailed log of business use verses personal use of a claimed vehicle, otherwise they might disallow a claimed deduction. We have a Venture van as part of a "S" Corp and our accountant advised us to keep the same records of vehicle use as we did before we incorporated and only claimed mileage on business use of a personal vehicle.
