changing gear ratios from 410 to 350

[HGW]

Ken: I do owe you those numbers--not until Moab--they will hurt your gas mileage. Those gears are for 1/4 mile times only--they do reduce your crawl ratio but so what--how often do you really crawl?

The H2 is such a dog already that going to less than 4.10 is a big mistake. It won't get out of its own way and you will not save a drop of gas unless you are driving from NJ to CA without hitting the brakes.

Gas mileage and H2 will never go together. The weight , the 4WD, and the aerodynamics just make it what it is---a bad ass looking big machine that turns heads and pisses off the tree huggers.

No mod will pay for itself unless you keep the big dog forever. The best mod is a cheap Honda to drive around for mileage.
