Replying to: phisher (Nov 15, 2008 10:35 am) When is the last time here in America have you ever talked with a Shareholder from Japan? I talked with my money guy who has been in the business for almost 25 years and he said he has never met one either. Reason I asked is that your answer on profits go to shareholders which is the standard answer from people on these Yahoo sites use for justifing their purchase of foreign junk. So I asked him and told him why I was asking him. He thought it interesting and called me the next day after talking about it around the water cooler type talk and no one else has either. Point being is american money, american company, money for the most part stays here. Foreign car, Foreign car, most of the money goes there. Replies to this message: steve_ (Nov 15, 2008 7:26 pm)

Replying to: dmathews3 (Nov 15, 2008 4:58 pm) I used to have some shares in a Japanese weighted ETF and they owned some car companies (forgot which ones - Honda and Toyota iirc). I still have some shares in an Asian weighted ETF and they own some Hyundai last I checked.   I have some Ford/Holden and probably lots of other auto related stock buried in those things but usually I just skim the major industries the funds hold. Tell your money guy he needs to diversify so he can lose his shorts worldwide like the rest of us have.   But ... we're really hear to talk about HUMMER MPG.   For the other issues, check out Buying American Cars What Does It Mean?.

Well, I confess I did own a 1989 Excel (for about a year), but my current ride is a Ford Escape Hybrid...   Back on topic, I'm wondering how many people actually use the excellent off-road capabilities of their H2?   OK, REALLY on topic, what MPG would it get off-road, or is it so bad on-road that it doesn't really make a difference.

Shouldn't it be not MPG but rather, GPM (gallons per mile) rating for these? Replies to this message: okko1 (Dec 01, 2008 7:47 pm) tidester (Dec 01, 2008 9:51 pm) okko1 (Dec 02, 2008 7:26 pm)

Replying to: nsbio1 (Dec 01, 2008 6:13 pm) actually does better per mile than some ford pickups and explorers. and as for off road it is a silly guestion. i don't care what someone's boat cost to run on the water. if you have an atv enjoy yourself. 16 t0 18 mpg is more than acceptable to me. what with all gas everybody else is saving under obama's plan there is plenty for me.

Replying to: nsbio1 (Dec 01, 2008 6:13 pm) but rather, GPM (gallons per mile)   How about MPQ (miles per quart). That might get you up into double digits!   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper Replies to this message: okko1 (Dec 02, 2008 7:26 pm)
