Paragon - I'm definitely not baiting for flame wars, that's not style at all. Just general discussion.
I see your point concerning the definition of "utility". I guess when I was comparing the H2/H1, I was excited to see that the H2 offered more comfort, IMO, for family and such (driver and passenger not so far apart, etc.) But it has the off-road ability as well. Since I don't know all that much about hummers, maybe it's presumptuous of me to think that the H1 is more capable off-road.
But as I said earlier, I think my jealousy (very small amount indeed) was based purely on the off road aspects of the vehicles.
When you compare the older rovers with the newer, more luxury, comfortable discos and range rovers, they have very little if any in the way of comfort - they are all about off-road. The Defender seems to have a good mix of both - so that's probably where I would fit. I never thought about the range rover to be honest, they are so expensive. I'd much rather have the H2.
I do enjoy the off-road experience in general, this past weekend may have made me realize that I really need an off-road vehicle that I don't need to rely on for everyday transportation.
Respectfully,
Kenny
