If the H2 goes away, I may have source a "bio-diesel" sticker to put on back of my Land Cruiser and figure out a way to make the engine rattle and belch out black smoke.
Dont forget to make it smell like donuts somehow too! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

The bike I learned to ride on was a mid-70s Honda Trail 70 with a 4 spd clutchless foot shifted tranny. I LOVED that bike! At my size those little guys would be WORKING now, though...

I very much doubt 37 though. Run a few tanks in it first. It's an aerodynamic car for its day, but it also weighes a lot too for its size. He's got helium balloons in the trunk. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

First the Freedom on Information Act, now the end of Hummers.
Damn hippies.
They won another one. Sadly. Personally, I think this is going to REALLY hurt GM. I'm now driving an 01 civic... 34mpg on the first tank is almost double what I was getting in the T100. But I admit, I feel much safer in the T.

I hope they ditch the H2 and H3, they aren't really Hummers anyway. And until AMG ditches the Humvee all together there will always be little military surplus leaks of the real deal (even though they have tried to cut down on this).

Did anyone see mythbusters, 91% reduction in drag at 40% better fuel economy IF you tailgate a big rig at 2ft <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />

Yes...I was also startled by the fact that the truck that drove tailgate up got 40 miles more out of a tank than the one that rolled tailgate down.
All these years...I had been pissin' the money away.

Two feet LOL. Might as well just ask the big rig to tow you. Then you can forget about drag and get an infinite improvement in fuel economy.
