Possible Hummer purchase, but am feeling reservations... [Archive]

Hi all. I have been wanting a Hummer for quite some time. I have found one I want, but am hesitant, for the following reasons.

I have done some research and stumbled across the FUH2 site. I was horrified to see the animosity directed towards Hummers and their drivers. I saw pictures of people peeing on unattended Hummers, as well as flipping people the finger. It hurt my feelings to see how people seem to judge others, just because they drive Hummers. I also read that people will write onscenities into the dirt on their unattended Hummers! I am a nice and calm person, but I think I would freak right out if someone did this to me. They have no right to judge and hate others the way that they do.

I am also concerned about how the vehicle handles in the snow. You know, stopping distances and all. It is summer here in Alberta and the standard dealership test drive on a hot sunny day does not cut it. It is big, but is it really that hard to navigate? Of course I found it gigantic, but I drive a 2 door Tahoe, and it pales in comparision to the size of an H2. I would park it at the back of any parking lot, but I am afraid some jacka$$ will mess with it now that I saw the FUH2 site.

A small concern is the gas mileage, but I know that does not come with the Hummer. However I have read so many different stories of gas consumption. Nine miles to the gallon is rather bad. I have also read people get 14 miles to the gallon as well... in the city. I would like to hear the good, the bad, and the ugly for real Hummer owners.

I have wanted an H2 since I saw my first one on CSI. I love them, and the aftermarket for them is so glorious. The H2 I am looking at is maroon (not my first choice of color, but the truck was loved and polished all the time), and have all the black bush gaurds and nerf bars on it. I am already planning on have all the stuff chromed as well as the front and rear bumpers. I have also been drooling over all the chrome odds and ends that will cost a small fortune. Then of course there is the new rubber and rims I am wanting.

I am so excited, but am afraid that ignorant people will destroy any pleasure I might have in owning one. I also am disheartened by the 9 mile a gallon deal for fuel consumption. I cannot see why it would be so poor, but you never know. I also am aware many people are alarmist and are probably exaggerating on the consumption.

I am going to the dealership tonight to haggled out a price, and hopefully do not back out. I came to this site for hopes my fears and reservations would be set aside.

Nice to meet you all.

Diana,,,, the gas should be around 12 mpg....running in snow is fun,, no problem...good idea to keep stock rims and tires for winter...snow and salt and chrome don't mix for long,,,and polished alum is worst.....do you have a tree hugger problem in Alberta?...that problem is a tuff call for some, as far as ownership...will the new h2 be garaged at nite,and will it be able to get in garage? good luck at dealers and let us know how you made out...lots of helpful info here, and some good people to help with questions......hope you get your dream truck....gl,,tc,, soft http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

Don't let that website get to you. If you want a Hummer get a Hummer! As for the MPG, it sucks, but you get what you pay for. You could get a Hummer that get's 10-11 MPG or you could get a Durango that get's 13-14 MPG
If it's in you blood you will have a Hummer tonight!
Good Luck! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

It seems that there are two people in this world....the first loves hummers and envy all who drive them; the second think its rediculous for someone to spend that much money on a a car that is so big and burns soo much gas--i find the second person is usually the first person as well. I have not had any problems from the general public besides getting parking tickets when the cars next to me dont and the usual "hey buddy, whats your gas mileage". The joy of driving a Hummer certainly out weighs the negativity.

Handling in snow...not sure how it would handle but on wet roads my Hummer drives like a dream. You have to remember this is a full time 4wheel drive vehicle so should have good traction.

The size takes about 2 days to get used to. After that it is REALLY easy to drive for such a big vehicle. I would say it drives better than a tahoe/yukon.

Any big SUV gets terrible gas mileage. What is the difference between a Yukon that gets 16mpg and a Hummer that gets 12? In my book this is negligible. I come from driving a Lexus IS 300 and i would not go back to a car for the world.(i kept the IS 300 for 3 weeks when i bought my Hummer and I almost despised driving it because the Hummer rides and drives soo comfortably.)

In summary: DO YOURSELF A FAVOR A BUY A HUMMER!!! Welcome to the board

Diana

Thanks everyone. The Hummer will not fit into our front attached garage. However, I live in a good neighborhood (touch wood), and have not had a single problem in nine years.

The Tahoe I drive now, only gets about 10MPG, because it is older and tired. It also has oversized tires, so it is understandable. Funny how my Tahoe is worse on fuel then a Hummer, and nobody takes notice.

I don't understand why people have an impression the Hummer owners are rich. A Hummer runs about the same price as a truck or comparable SUV. I have been on the market for awhile and a well equipped Tahoe is MORE money then a Hummer. I am not rich by all means, but I want a Hummer, instead of any other SUV. I am due for a new trucknow, and my Tahoe has served me well for many years. I love that ruck of mine and would never get rid of it, unless it was for something quite significant.

My Tahoe has polished aluminum wheels and they are trashed from our winters. This is why I am looking into chrome. I love the Foose Spank 8s, with the Toyo mud tires. I was wanting to chrome the entire truck before getting rims, but rims do make the vehicle. I will worry about it when I bring my new baby home I suppose.

I hope to bring good news of Hummer ownership in a couple of days.

I love the comment on the miussing body... I am with you on that.

I'd go for it too. Great truck. I found that while living on the Canadian West Coast, people were pretty good about not messing with your property.

Not run into any problems so far in California. Knock on wood.

If you do go for the NAV system, ask what the dealer is REALLY going to do if you want an additional CD player and/or DVD player put in. Any additional CD player or DVD player with the NAV option is not factory so I think the dealer can make a difference.

Hi Diana,
You would LOVE the Hummer. I've had mine for about 2 months now I and I will never want anything else! Size-wise, it a little bigger than a tahoe, but not much really. The thing that I think makes it feel so much bigger is that it so boxy (sp?) that looking out the front windshield is strange because you're used to looking at a front end that is rounded and slopes which makes things feel smaller. It doesn't take very long to get used to. Our Ford Crew Cab Long box is much bigger than my h2 so it was actually a step down in size for me and it is so much easier to navigate around parking lots etc which I love.
I live in Washington State, which is a very Liberal place, but I've had nothing but compliments from people. Now I think if I lived nearer to Seattle that might be different as that is where the concentration of our tree huggers reside. The rest of the state is pretty conservative and doesn't seem to have any biases. You will get the occasional idiot who makes a snotty comment about the gas mileage, but they quiet down pretty quick when I tell them that it costs a lot more to fill up my Ford than my H2 and I get better mileage than my friends Suburban. Alot of misconceptions are out there about it. I'm pretty diligent in trying to dispell those. You just have to be patient!
It's a beautiful SUV and great to drive. If you want one just do it! You wont regret it!! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

By the way, Don't let anyone give you any grief over wanting some chrome pretties on it!! I love shiny things!! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Hey Christa, good to see another lady. The founder of the local Hummer club here is a woman too. She has a killer custom blue Hummer, that I would almost sell my soul for.

Greenhummer, the city I liv3e in is Calgary. It is an oil city. I never thought people hated Hummers so much until I saw the FUH2 site. It scared me half to death, since the only time I have not liked Hummers, was due to my jealousy over not having one myelf. I am human, and can admit that jealousy sucks. It was a coping mechanisum since we could not afford one at the time. I just never slammed the vehicle or it's owners. It was a real shock to see the FUH2 site to say the least. I would love to see someone have the balls to flip my bodybuilding husband the finger where he could see it.

I just heard from the dealership and they are offering a 100 000 mile/10 year warranty on the Hummer. That is incentive if I ever saw any. I am going in in a couple of hours to haggle over price. I think it is way too high for a 2003 with 23000KM on it. They want $59000 Canadian. The dealer said they won't move on the price due to the warranty. I might have to wait longer before getting one, who knows.

Hi Diana, just got back from Alberta last thursday. We stayed up in the Waterton parks area. Beautiful! My average economy driving from Tri-Cities Washington to Waterton and back was 13.8 mpg. That includes driving around looking for bears and deer while we were up there. The lowest I have ever gotten from a tank of gas was 10.1 mpg I think, and the highest...well, I think we were averaging 13.8-14.2 while driving the highways in canada... hope the purchase goes well...you won't regret it!

Yes this is the typical mindstate of women these days. Emulation of cathode rays. 8mpg is more realisitic. Ask yourself this question: Why do you really want it? If it is because of the status, and allure, then you will probably be pegged by the FUH2 crowd.

also Diana, you had better start putting out more for your weightlifing husband, supposing he's going to fit the bill for you new roving popularity machine. "I am due for a new trucknow".
If you have that much of a power complex over other drivers, then why not just buy a GMC Suburban. Oh, wait, you are buying one, only it has fancier sheet metal and a trendier nameplate. I'm sure all the other wives at Starbucks and Tim Hortons will envy you.

I am so curious as to how you form your opinion on women these days. As clearly, your intellect and behavior should only lead you to the company of unconfident pimply man-boys and helpless animals. However, your distinct reputation for retarded retorts and inablity to manifest a worthy cause for your existence on this forum will prevail I'm sure.

CRTs on your mother's Tandy 1000 monitor is how you view and prove your outright jealousy of the very status and allure that you are referring to and yes Diane will have to deal with paltry beings such as yourself and those that submit on the FU-H2 site. Tis' quite suprising you haven't graced that site with your pestilence, as surely you would be accepted and that's all you really want, isn't now?

Horton,
First of all if you really knew the "mindstate of a woman" you would probably be out with one instead of spending a lot of your time posting ignorant, inane thoughts on a website full of people that could really care less what you think. Since you don't and you obviously aren't out with one I can only assume that you are a little, weasley, pimply-faced eco-jerk who probably talks to the stained posters of Brittney Spears that are on your wall at home.

Second of all, the first reason I bought my H2 is because I have 2 children who I love dearly and their safety is paramount to me. I will NOT put them in a tin can for the sake of getting better mileage and satisfying people like you.
Thirdly, I get better mileage in my H2 than I do in our Ford F350 so go park your skinny ass at a Ford site and spew your ignorance there. I get a little over 12 mpg in mine. I don't know how you can quote 8 mpg when you don't even own one!

Lastly I don't like the suburban. It's my money I spent, not yours, and I decided to buy the H2 because I love the way it looks not because I thought people would think I'm cool.

Gorton... I can say so much to you, but you are just not worth my while. Christa said it all pretty much. I love Hummers, and that is that. You probably take public transit, and are one those creepy bastards at the back of the bus. The only female attention you would get is at "gyno alley" in the strip joints, if you have a lot of money to pitch at them.

As for the Hummer. We walked away from the deal tonight. The dealer would only go down to $57200 Canadian, too much money. It is a 2003, and that price is what the 2004s are going for. There are plenty of Hummers to be had, but I did really like this particular truck. I will just keep looking. We will have our Hummer, sooner or later. Perhaps since we walked away, the dealer might bend towards the price we had in mind.

What do you think a low mileage 2003 Hummer should go for in Canadian funds?

gorton

08-04-2005, 01:55 AM

What is the mark-up in canada? I know you would have no problems finding a low mileage '03 in the States for under $40k easy. That would be about 48.5k in Canadian dollars...

Diana

08-04-2005, 02:44 AM

dochummer, 2003s go for $47000 - $55000, depending on the mileage. The dealer wanted $59995, and I managed to get him down to $57200. I was hoping they would let it go for $55000. It is mint, but I am seeing 2004s at that same price. I just don't like the ones I have looked at.

It will happen, even if it takes a couple of months. I would sooner have something I know I got a decent deal on, then to overpay, and feel ripped off.

Beastmaster

08-04-2005, 02:58 AM

Diana,

I applaud your restraint.

Frankly, you are likely better off buying from a private owner. I also think the dealers are trying to rip you off on a used vehicle

A great example is on EBay - there's a 2003 H2 with only 7500 miles going for 33,600 USD. It's likely going to end near 40k USD, which is roughly 47k CDN (off the top of my head).

So - shop around. I'm sure the wait will be worth it!

Life is short. Before you know it, you are nearing 40. No person should ever worry about what type of vehicle they own. Each person in a free world should live up to his/her expectations, not anyone else. You can own an expensive fast sports car that you have no need for. You can own a very expensive luxury car that you have no need for. Or, you can have a hobby and buy a cheap piece of JEEP and put thousands of dollars in to it to have fun. You might instead buy a house in Malibu to enjoy. Whatever you choose, you need to have as much fun as possible. For every person that is jealous of you fun, F--k them!! For they are definitely not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Diana,

As many on this site have mentioned, you'll really dig the Hummer. I've owned mine about 4 months and it's a pretty cool ride.

If you can afford to drive it and buy it, do what you want to do, and don't give a damn about what anyone else says or does.

Does the H2 get great gas mileage? No. Do other vehicles get worse? Yes. Take a look at all the RV's on the road. Hell most of them are towing cars behind them!

Lastly if you buy it and it turns out that somehow you don't like it, or you get hassled too much, or it's not the vehicle you hoped/thought it would be, or whatever, then sell it, and chalk it up to a learning experience. Ultimately it's not about what you have, it's about who you are. I think it's just that simple.

Welcome.

If you had spent more time reading books than doing god knows what, you could considered as intelligent person. Since you have no manners, nor intelligent capabilities you make your self look like a retard kid. Just to teach you a bit, if you change your way of experessing yourself and rephrase your sentenses little different you could actually be heard, people would talk to you. Rule number 1. respect yourself, rule no. 2 respect the women, rule no.3 respect all people regarding what they look, they speak or DRIVE. You can't possibly know people's motives for buying a vehicle, and if it was for show, so what? What's it to you?

Make your self a huge favor and buy a book. Start with small, little pages and large letters and move forward from there...

I have to say I have vastly enjoyed this forum. I love the quick wit, and creativity of the members when a troll comes around. I have not laughed so hard in a long time. People seem to have the misconception that Hummer drivers are rich snobs that only care about themselves. This forum proves that this is not the case at all.

I can't wait to get a Hummer in the near future, so I can join the ranks of proud ownership. I will still hang around and participate, until the day I can proudly annouce my ownership.

You guys... and gals... are the best!!!

Obviously you have never been in a serious and loving relationship. You seem to think woman get things from their husbands from putting out. Maybe your mother is like that, and that is obvious due to your deep seated issues with woman. I am sorry your mother did not love you the way all children should be loved. Your issues and comments really show what type of life you have lived. I really do feel sorry for you. Was your father even a part of your life?

It seems to strike cord with you that my husband bodybuilds... It appears to me that you are intimidated by people that are fit, healthy and strong. Sorry if you were picked on by the jocks and atheletes in high school. You are probably one of those little weiners at the gym that hides behind equipment, and watches all the big boys. My husband has spotted plenty of guys like you, and so have I.

I also know that there is no way you could spend 2-3 hours in the gym everyday. Only people that compete do this, and usually do it for 8-12 weeks prior to competition., Do your homework before you start bull****ting about something you know nothing about.

If you had a job, and worked out 2-3 hours a day, you would not have the time or energy to grace us with opinions and flaming.

OMG!!! You are a fool. People can and do bodybuild without steroids. Diet and exercise are key in any fitness program. I will not disclose what I do for a living, but I will tell you part of my living is knowing what I am talking about in this department.

Funny how you contradict yourself. First you say I have to put out to get my Hummer from my husband. Now you say I don't get any due to steroid use. I don't disclose much info about my personal life, however, my husband and I have NO PROBLEMS in that department. I also have sex because I love him and find him attractive (unlike youself). He does not need to buy my affections. Honestly, by the way you speak, you have never seen what a true loving, successful and mutual relationship is. So sad to have never known it...

So do not belittle me for judging you, when you have done the exact same thing since you responded to my post. I never asked for your verbal assult and judgement. I want a Hummer, because I like them. I am not so shallow and my life does have meaning. I don't need a vehicle to fill in any sort of gap. Some people bust their asses for a living, and have worked hard for every single thing the own. Some people want to enjoy the fruits of their labor. You probably have never even had the pleasure of driving or riding in a Hummer, so it is beyond your comprehension of what it feels like. Hummers are not the most attractive vehicle on the road, however they compansate in their confort, and purpose.

I judge you and your life, due to how you conduct yourself towards other people. A well raised, and well adjusted individual does not speak to others in such a demeaning manner.

What a pity that you have no friends, and no real life. You have come to boards to annoy and irritate other well meaning people, to justify your pathetic exsistance. I am now going to go out with my friends, while you sit by yourself, and annoy people. Mind you, I guess you need to go workout for your 2-3 hours now. I don't know what you do for 2-3 hours, but I can say your regimen is counter productive of whatever youare trying to achieve. At least the members of these forums won't have you around for a few hours...

Why not go to FUH2 site to hang out with your peers. Oh yeah, they have not been updating anything over there for a couple of months now... No wonder you are so lost and lonely.

Gorton,

Have to agree with you about how monsterous H2 is. H2 is one of the coolest turcks ever made and maybe the best in off road wise, I know you'd like to have one, Me too! I like it black. What's your favourite color?

gorton

08-05-2005, 10:55 AM

i have 2003, its a junker. the color is actually irrelevant. praise gm for turning a utility vehicle into a rap video status symbol. and the seats are horrible. gm should include a health plan with these vehicles to cover visits to the chiropractor. not everyone has Mcdonalds stuffed jelly back. I wouldn't discrace Recaro by installing their seats in a squared off Suburban, with rectangular windows.

It is amazing to me that you seem to think Hummer owner feel the world revolves around them. You are the one filled with hate since there are people that do share your opinion and choose to drive something you don't like. No go to work and sniff, oops, wash those jock straps and dirty towels in the locker room. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

Diana - I hate to get off track here and talk about your original post as it seems others have a different agenda on this forum.

Go buy a Hummer and become part of the famliy! You won't regret it. I had some of the same thoughts as you when I was looking into getting one last October - gas mileage, size, vandalism, handling in snow, as well as finding the FUH2 web site. I had saved for a long time to go buy a vehicle I've always wanted and I have no regrets! It took a couple of days to get used to it's size but it's a pleasure to drive and does extremely well in the snow with it's clearance and traction. I'm getting 12MPG which is better then I expected but I knew about the gas mileage before I bought it. The only downside I've found so far is you have to be able to handle lots of stares and people coming up to you asking questions about the vehicle. There is the occassional flying finger but it's usually by some teenage kid driving an old beatup rusty rice burner.

Put aside any of the fears or concerns you had and go buy one!!!

My good friend has a custom Hummer, and I get to ride in it, so I have a pretty good idea of what they are about. Her's does not seem so big anymore. When I test drove one the first time, I think the wide wind shield with the low height gave the illusion that it was bigger then it is. It is the most comfortable vehicle I have ever had the pleasure to drive or ride in! It has so many goodies, and I don't know half of what they are still. I was wanting a Hummer since they came, but getting to live vicariously through my friend, really helped me decide. I did not want to spend a ton of money and end up with something overrated.

My Tahoe is a 1993 and has 225000 miles on it. It has been the best vehicle I have ever owned, and I feel bad that I will be selling soon. This truck has never let me down, not even once. My husband has been wanting us to replace it for ages, and I would not relent. Now that I have experienced a Hummer, there is nothing else I could possibly want. Any larger decent SUV costs in the same price range as a Hummer, perhaps a little more. I understand you get what a person pays. I am a Chevy girl, and to replace my Tahoe with another Tahoe would be stupid.

I am not the rich spoiled wife, like some people have insinuated. I also have been a car/truck/bike enthusist all my life. I have muscle cars, sport bikes, and 4x4s since I started driving.

We will get the Hummer when the right one comes along... Thanks for the advise.

Diana, you cannot please everybody, but the most important thing is that you get what you want. THat is what I did about a month ago I bought a brand new one. As for how the middle finger thing goes. If there is alot of tree huggers up there I'm sure you will see some birds flying. Those people are just plain stupid and really don't have any clue about the h2 or any of the large suv's for that fact. They are just scared of it!! The gas mileage is not that good when compared to a civic, but when compared to other suv's its not that bad. My expedition I traded in got 10-11 mpg in stop and go traffic and 16-17.5 on hwy. On a trip this past weekend to northern cal on hwy 1 I averaged 14.7 mpg. and in stop and go traffic about 10-11 mpg that is not that much of differnce, especially all things considered. full time 4wd, the exp was 2wd. and etc. On straight hwy I get about 15.3 mpg that's around 60 mph. After the break in period I'll move up to 65 then 70 and see what happens there. Usually over 70 is when it starts to drop. I back and forth for about 2 weeks. Then went in haggled a little bite more got a final price and walked out. Came back the next day and bought it. I haven't regretted it a single sec. Its a great suv. Good luck!! Get what you want

Thanks for the advise. I am going to wait a little longer, and go for a 2006. I know it will be worth the wait in the long run. I will have to be a non Hummer owner for awhile longer, but I know it will be worth the wait. My best girl friend has an H2, so it is not like I go through life without one completely...

Good luck and enjoy your new Hummer.
