I'm not saying that this commercial necessarily gives current or prospective H2 owners the idea that this stuff is okay. If you can afford an H2, you make way more cash than I do, therefore must have a pretty good job, and be halfway intelligent at least. Of course there are exceptions to the rule, but we'll leave that out.
And Dennis, while I understand where you're coming from with the cement comment in a way, it is totally irrelevant to the issue I have with this commercial. In the commercial they drove down a pre-existing paved road that appeared to be in rich suburbia. If you could get a cement truck ANYWHERE NEAR the trails that I love to make an attempt to pave them, it would be a miracle. But getting someone who has been influenced by an irresponsible advertising campaign (remember, it's not just the H2 commercials I have issue with) and them destroying our beautiful trails and country side happens all the time. I'll post back here in a few minutes with some examples of trail damage done by people who don't know how to stay on the existing trail so you guys can HOPEFULLY figure out what I'm talking about. The trails I run are not in the local farmer's field, they are high up in the rocky mountains, in beautiful, pristine places that should be left unharmed. And don't try to give me crap about the trail itself is harming nature, the Forest Service put these roads in long ago for access to the best parts of my wonderful state.
