Just watching a US YewTube video, and the narrators are pronouncing vehicle as ‘VeeHICCLE’. Which to my Aussie ears sounds weird and somewhat backwoods.
In Aus, the H is discarded, it’s a ve-icle.
Is that pronunciation universal in the US, or just some local dialect?
“VEE-ih-cull”.
It kinda rhymes with “icicle”.
I’m American.
You must reside in some posher postcode. “icle” ???
In this here parts we drop both the H and the I.
Why expend the energy and breathe on three syllables when two will suffice?
“VEE - cle”
There is a local (U.S.) commercial in which the speaker repeatedly urges the viewer to donate their unwanted vee-HICK-le. He has a strong southern accent.
mmm
Annnd… here’s Vehicle by the Ides of March. (1970; #2 hit in the U.S., #73 in Australia.) There’s a hint of an haitch. I think my normal pronunciation is similar, and I’ll up the h-factor if I’m trying to speak clearly.
VEE-icle, unless I’m being snarky or silly, in which case it’s vee-HIC-le.
Vee-i-cle (Southern UK).
I pronounce the ‘hic’ if the word is ‘vehicular’
Southeastern US. Without the ‘h.’ Looking at some old dictionaries, that is the older and more common pronunciation.
I grew up in Utah and sometimes retain a slight “h” but it’s not strong.
As I recall, the over pronunciation of the ‘H’ in vehicle started in the 80s with Roscoe P. Coltrane on The Dukes of Hazzard
This is an example: Dukes of Hazzard-Rosco and Enos try their new patrol vehicles
ETA: I’m not saying that Roscoe coined the pronunciation, but the show popularized it in the US.
I associate the vee-HICK-ul pronunciation more with Sgt. Rizzo from MASH.

VEE-hick-l.
I do clearly pronounce the H, and have actually been surprised to see so many of you don’t…
First thing I thought of. Potter not letting Rizzo pencil whip him through the required vee-hickle training.
New Hampshirite here.
After thinking about this-it depends for me.
If am thinking about what I am saying–ve-hic-le.
In normal everyday speech it would mostly likely be shortened to vee-cle.
I do NOT think I am doing this deliberately,
Vee-ickl. No H.
“Veal-cuhl” (Cleveland)
Also Cleveland. The accent is on the the first syllable, there are three syllables, and there’s a slight hint of an H, but it’s very weak.
Car.
(Sorry had to do it 
!)
Reminded of Jessica Mitford’s essay about using fake names to send brief messages via the long-distance phone carrier without getting charged (back when long-distance phone charges were a thing).
You’d put through a person-to-person call to your desired number, but ask for a nonexistent person with a name that conveyed to the person who took the call the information you wanted to give them. Then the recipient would say “Sorry, [fake person] isn’t here”, and the operator would terminate the call with no charge.
An example Mitford described of such an informal phone “code” system involved a traveling salesman calling home to let his wife know what city he was currently in. The “person” he asked for when he called from Detroit was “Homer V. Hickles”. 
VEE-hickle.
My speech patterns are mostly Southern and we practically have an aversion to silent letters.
