YEah, the 'burban/yukon/escalade "ESV"s dodge the bullet. The Navigator.

Virtually any 3/4 ton pickup

and i'm sure many more i can't think of... But as you mentioned, the H2 is the one that takes all the bullets, and as such i think that a very wise marketing move from GM would be to shoot its mileage up into respectable territory and volunteer to be EPA cert'd once that is accomplished... go with a possible 2wd transfer case option to bump it up a couple mpgs, diesel, whatever.

Because, well, while the enviro's will never condone a hummer, and will always freak out in their general direction no matter what - it would be reasonable to give people who aren't anti-hummer something to say in return, and to take the capacity to slander hummers with invented dramatized mileage figures "that 8mpg earth-fcking *******" and so on and so forth.

Its just a thought i've had.

I guess the death of the H1 has left me thinking from time to time about the future of the H2.

God bless soccer moms if they drive sales. You boys and girls be nice to them. If offroad-used and off-road capable Wranglers were all that were sold, they'd have killed the model years ago. It survives via college kids that think its cool to pop the doors off and hang a knee out the side, and beg dad for one until he relents, and old people that chose it over a miata or wahtever as a novelty sunday-driving car.
