It has been fun

[Easy Ed]

But I sold the truck today and have moved on to something wayyyy different.

For the record, DRTYFN, please go set in the corner and lick you nuts like a good little pup ;-) You are and have been a great wealth of info. And your wit and banter has been fun, just watch shooting the mirrors on your truck ;-)

It has been fun, interesting and at times really crazy but well worth it. Thanks folks for your help, input, and in times that I could help, glad I was able to help in some way.

HUMTECH, Please continue to help, your info has been very helpful bud and out of anyone here, s!it, you should charge for your info ;-).

I will check in (if anything to see what DRTYFN has to say to my comment) and see what is going on.

Have fun, take care, Ed (Easy Ed)

Cheers and thanks, so ya gonna let us in on what ya bought???

[Easy Ed]

2011 Kia Optima LX with 2.4 liter four cylinder and six speed auto with 13784 miles on it. 34 MPG versus 11 MPG. Far cry from a high end car but will work for what I need it for

Edit: With 106,000 miles on the truck I got $12,500 for trade, no spare tire, wheels and frame that looked like sh!t due to Ohio winters, drivers side folding mirror that would not fold anymore (go figure) I was okay with that price because I got my use out of it over the 11 years of having it.

There are few on here that really are top notch and you sir were one of them.

Hopefully you do check in more often then not

(hopefully with all that money you save in gas... you will be able to buy another H2 to play with and be back on the forums shortly)

I may be already missing it with the snow that is coming down now

Our next plan is to get the wife a "newer" 4 X 4 in a price range of around $15,000 to $20,000. We are trying to keep cost down as we do buy because I want to retire at 62 (3.5 years to go) with very little debt and a couple vehicles that will carry us into our "golden years"

My wife recently traded in her Saturn Sky Redline for a Jeep Liberty 4x4 Limited Jet Edition. Much much safer than the Sky and she loves the hell out of it. Thing is built solid as a rock!

[Easy Ed]

Wife has been looking for the "just right" Jeep Liberty, it has to be blue

Really though, she has been looking for something in her price range and decent miles and in the Jeep line up. She just likes the security of knowing she has four wheel drive during the winter months, no off roading. Myself, getting the car and if it snows too much, that is what personal days are for ;-)

That was mine too, had to be a liberty 4x4. We looked at so many but either had a huge amount of miles or was tore up either inside or out. Finally just stopped into a dealership not knowing what they had and found the one she just had to have! The limited 4x4's are definitely nice, try to track down either a Jet or Arctic edition.

Thanks PaHumBug. I will still check in, hard not to since I have been doing so for 10 or so years

You'll def be back at some point. I just helped pull out a few people in the snow ditch over the weekend, and much surprised they're reaction was " WOWWW, your H2 didn't even flinch trying to pull our car/trucks out!"
Satisfaction guaranteed!! Maybe you can LIFT the 2011 Kia Optima?

[Easy Ed]

Lift he!!, got to check into lowering it and put a fart can on the exhaust

Sad to see you go, I always waited to see you weigh in on technical issues... your input will be missed. Happy trails to you.

[Easy Ed]

She ended up with a new 2014 Jeep Patriot Latitude 4X4....oh yeah, blue She likes it so that it is what counts I guess
