I have an '05 H2 and I get 12 mpg. You are getting 8-10?

No, I have an H1 and I'm currently getting 14.5 mpg (diesel).
 
See post #6 for what I said about the H2.
Your 12mpg is pretty good. You might do a little better with a lighter right foot, and you'll do a lot worse towing or off-roading.

Recent north south trip strong head wind even stronger tail wind. 8k miles on that expensive thick 5w30, original still very clean air filter, tires at 38psi with 12/32 of tread remaining, keeping up with the flow, a/c running - 17mpg.

A reporter would like to talk to mothers who use a large SUV to transport children but are now considering a smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicle as a result of high gas prices. Please respond to jwahledmunds.com with your daytime contact information along with your current vehicle and the vehicle/s you are considering no later than Wednesday, June 11th.
 
Thanks,

The reason you don't see EPA numbers listed for the H2 is that the weight of the vehicle is so high that they can get it excluded from the EPA rating system. Many heavy-duty full size trucks qualify for this exemption as well. I think it has to be over 3 tons.

just another reason to put a bullet into GM
 
it's exemptions and tax breaks for cars like the Hummer that clearly show a lack of vision and undue poor influence in Washington. Of course no one in the current administration really cares about curbing our use of oil.

Sounds to me like he wants to go back to the days when the only choice was a model T in any color you want as long as it was black. I'd like to know what kind of job he has that he can make the comment about letting GM go out of business. I'm betting within a year he to will be out of a job along with the other 3 to 5 million people that are directly impacted by GM from suppliers to dealers to the corner store. The government figures that CNN posted on line last week said if GM went out of business it would put us into a depression. It would cost the government 56 Billion the first year, 156 billion the second year and up to 500 Billion in 3 to 5 years. Just think of the tax dollars we would lose if GM went out of business. Payroll taxes gone, property taxes gone, and the many, many millions of dollars GM employes give to different charities. How can anyone make such a off the cuff remark just because a Hummer in his opinion is to heavy. So everyone should drive a Smart car as I'm guessing it is the lightest car now on the road.
