It usually does if you drink it.

Simple math. Expect to get 8-12 MPG. Check your current miles per year/month/week (or what ever you track) and do some multiplication with today's gas prices. Factor in license tags too, especially if your state includes weight in the formula for registration fees. Only you can tell if you can afford it.

Really, though. It's sort of stupid asking a bunch of HUMMER enthusiasts if they think the H2 is worth it. Of course it is!

We all bought one cause we thought it was worth it. Don't take our word for it. Go out and test drive one and then decide.

If you are worried about gas prices then you should not buy an Hummer.:D

For a Saleen:Fuel Economy


Fuel TypeRegular


MPG (city)14





MPG (highway)26





MPG (combined)17


Fuel Economics


Cost to Drive 25 Miles$4.41


Fuel to Drive 25 Miles1.47 gal


Annual Fuel Cost$2646

* Based on 15000 annual miles and a fuel price of 3.00 per gallon.

Fill-up cost and the distance you can travel on a tank are calculated based on the combined MPG and the assumption that you will re-fuel when your tank is 10% full.

disadvantages of owning a H2.

I fully expected to get between 25 and 30 mpg and have been seriously dissappointed. There's no way I can afford gas, now.

Actually, this reminds me of the time I bought a condo in Vail and couldn't afford to buy lift tickets.

i equate this to the guy that buys the vette and then puts the regular gas in because of the price:confused:

i just got my 06 sut 2 days ago and i can't count how many people talked to me about the gas issue!!:mad: i make a point to tell these people that high performance and luxury suv's have about the same miles per gallon.

i talked with a hummer guy who lives in schaumburg to and all he was doing was bitchin about fillin the tank! sometimes i feel hummer owners are the people who do the most bitchin and complainin!:rolleyes:

When people ask me how many miles per gallon I get, I smirk at them and nod up and down saying "8 MPG" like "Yeah baby"

When I filled up at one of those stations that only let you put $50 in at a time, I of course had to top off the rest of the tank. As I pulled away I looked in the mirror and saw the lady filling next to me walk around and look at my pump. $24.85 to fill an H2!:D :rolleyes:

Just tell them you get a discount since you're heavily invested in energy securities. More than half of them won't understand and the others will chuckle and then glare.
