Couldn't agree more !! The H2 is my best ride so far (drove a Jeep Wrangler, BMW 525 TDS, Range Rover, Dodge Ram).
It's like nothing else !! Truly !!

Re: What is it like driving an H2?
Ride - Smoother then most think. I upgraded from a Dodge Durango to an H2. Night and Day. Smoooooth as can be.
People - Always get asked about how much gas it takes and how many miles can I get. I was tell them I don't know or care, the government is footing the bill, and then they get pissed.
No one has cut me off, of yet, but you will find that some people just freak when a large vehicle is on their heels and just slow down. I guess they figure they play it safe.
Parking and driving - For me, it took like 2 weeks to get really comfortable driving and manuevering in it. But in fairness, it took me that long as well driving my first SUV
Driving is heaven thru any rough rodes. It just plows thru everything.
I echo what other said about kids loving the H2. Bring it to the park or better yet, to one of those kids school washes and they are in heaven.
Also, what another member said, if you do not like attention or are very low profile person, this is definately not the vehicle for you.
All & All, I LOVE MY H2!!!

Re: What is it like driving an H2?
H2 ride is almost luxurious and much smoother than my old H3. It can get to my cabin in the sticks on muddy and snowy roads when most other vehicles can't. I like the versatility of the SUT for throwing stuff in the back. There is always something in the bed. I like rolling down all the windows, and the sunroof on the SUT, and it's almost like being in a convertible. I find myself using the air pump with the air suspension on the Adventure Package much more than I ever thought I would.
I LOVE THE COMFORT OF THE NEW SEATS! When I'm having a bad back day I find myself going out for a ride and turning on the seat heater and listening to some soft music on the XM. I would love to have one of those seats in the den!
My grandchildren are crazy about the H2 and constantly want to go somewhere in it when they are over at the house. At least half the time when I'm at the gas station someone comes over to ask about the mileage and twice people have asked if they could sit in it.
MOST IMIPORTANTLY< I JUST LOVE DRIVING MY H2!

Re: What is it like driving an H2?
My husband and I recently purchased a 2006 H2 and we are totally in love with it. I also agree that it handles phenomenally. I also have an H3 and I love it as well but there is a difference in performance between the two. My daughter is in heaven when we take out the H2. We get both stares and glares but I don't give much attention. I have had a few people get cocky when I try to pass but again just ignore them and don't aggravate the situation. I have had people say that they protest the H2 and I tell them that they are entitled to their opinion as long as they don't touch my vehicle. I wouldn't trade my H2 for any other vehicle at this point. I LOVE IT!!!!!! Cari
