As if on cue the J.D. Powers report on vehicle quality has rated the Hummer H2 dead last. As well as 225 problems per 100 vehicles it turns out that 22% of H2 owners complained about, wait for it.... low gas mileage. Apparently H2 owners are not happy about having to refuel every 200 miles when zipping up and down the freeway in their off-road tanks. Interestingly Hummer has blamed it on a marketing problem instead of buyer stupidity. But it was a cunning exploitation of loopholes that permited Hummer to market the H2 without quoting gas mileage in the first place. It seems unlikely that they will dash to show rooms to brag about the soul and gas sucking mileage of the H2.
I expect with their unique all American know-how the people at Hummer will figure out the best way to solve the gas mileage problem is to simply put in a forty gallon tank. Stupid is, stupid does...
