Nice, congrats

I was wondering about the question thats already been asked

Is there a noticeable power difference and trans difference?

Thanks,

lucky dog:D

I somehow knew that was coming:D

Hucky and 3HUMMER - well I think the drivetrain is alot smoother than before. The shifts are not as noticable. I havent really stomped it down too much being its new so I am not sure how noticeable the added power is from full throttle. It might be hard to tell since the tranny is now a 6 speed, so two parameters have changed, both engine and tranny. I see the new brochure is touting a 7.8 or so 0-60 time, and I believe the old truck would do it in about 10 seconds. I did notice it seems to get to 60 MPH faster. So without any data to back it up, it feels quicker. I'll have to get out on the expressway and open it up from a standing stop and see how it winds out.

One thing I did notice is the exhaust is quite a bit louder. Almost sounds like an aftermarket cat back system. You dont hear it inside, but outside its got a very throaty rumble to it. I like it!

Other things I've noticed...gone are the interior squeaks...my 06 didnt have alot of them, but enough to be annoying at times. Fit and finish inside is lightyears better over the fit and finish of the 06.

I think the new wheels will NOT have the pitting issues that us northern folks have with the salted winter roads. Back up camera is a cool option. Nav system takes some getting used to finding things on it touch screen as far as system controls for the stereo etc.

Seems as if the transfer case is alot quieter when shifting into low range.

Seats seem firmer than the other ones, but I think a tad more comfortable....

As always....it gets TONS of looks...but then again...most Hummers do!

thanks and thanks....my buddies refer to the garage as the garagemahal....once i get the interior done it will have a bathroom, heat and all the good stuff on the main level, then the upper floor will be for storage or future finished space....

My wife will drive the H2 on occasion but I cannot say that she would want one as "her" vehicle....she likes it and all....but just doesnt see the allure of the H2....

Re: Finally got pics of my 08 H2
 

Nice truck, post some pics of the seats, I seen one on e-bay and the seats look waaay cool. :perfect10s:

Re: Finally got pics of my 08 H2
 

Wow very nice. As much as I like my 05 I will probably trade up for a new one in 09.

Re: Finally got pics of my 08 H2
 

I'll do that once I get it back from the dealer....i've got dash light troubles that they are having a hard time troubleshooting....

Re: Finally got pics of my 08 H2
 

ok not gonna lie on thing i think i liked better about prior to "08 models was the dash titties other than that the "08 blows it away. what i think is stupid about these air vents are how you have on control to move them up and down and one to move them side to side that drives me crazy on my H3 it should be just one thing to move it all directions like directly on the vent. Thats how just about every other car i have ever been in is like.
