I was impressed, looks like a Tonka Hummer though since it's yellow. I think that would be a nice SUV or whatever you want to call it to own. At $49,925 MSRP, it's not bad.

I think its pretty ugly...they tried making it a luxury SUV, but it doesnt look like one from the outside at least, its just not something i can see a RICH business executive pulling up to multi-millionaire dollar home in.
Im sure people are gonna go crazy with them and put like 22' chrome wheels, and it will look nice, but i wouldnt not get yellow, it does look to much like a Tonka Truck, id go with black or something darker... more calm then yellow
but just my $00.02

The H2 is actually just supposed to be a more-affordable, slightly less-capable, more comfy version of the H1. If you want to off-road, though. . . . be better-off spending the extra $30,000 on the H1. . . or better yet, take that extra $30,000 and buy a Jeep Wrangler. With the extra cash you can spend some money on Dana44 axles, suspension lift, nicer tires, full lockers, and beefed-up skid plating.

I've seen a bunch of them around here- I think they look 100x better than the old model. Much cleaner and less "military".

last i checked, the H2's don't have the ability to change the air pressure, only to view the current pressure. This is what i have read at least from different magazines

I had a chance to see and ride in one a couple months back. I actually liked it, and that's coming from a non-SUV lover. The interior used alot of GM parts-bin parts though and that was kinda a turn-off. From what I've been told though it's actually capable offroad unlike other SUVs in that price range.
