We just got some in, they changed the mirror caps a little bit, that's the only noticeable difference on the outside. Instead of the entire mirror cap being chrome, there's a chrome insert with the H2 logo on it, looks really nice. We just got a couple of Stealth Blues and a Black SUT. They have the 4-year/50,000 mile warranty as well.

VTSTOMPER 07-26-2005 03:37 PM

not bad!

Bill Kervaski 07-26-2005 03:38 PM

Slick. More pics!!! Maybe an inside snapshot?

(thanks, btw)

HummerNewbie 07-26-2005 03:39 PM

I like that

aggiehummer...er 07-26-2005 03:39 PM

The only other difference I noticed was that if you don't have the tire carrier on the back, the black part of the liftgate now has Hummer embossed on it.

I love the new caps.

Bill Kervaski 07-26-2005 03:41 PM

I'd really be interested in seeing the SUT pics... What dealership?

VTSTOMPER 07-26-2005 03:41 PM

Looks like a whole new mirror to tell you the truth.

Bill Kervaski 07-26-2005 03:45 PM

I'd have to see a pic taken a bit back before passing judgement...

aggiehummer...er 07-26-2005 03:48 PM

The black plastic part, above the license plate holder.

DRTYFN 07-26-2005 03:48 PM

THAT LOOKS LIKE ****!!!!!!! That has to be the worst thing I've seen on the H2. That new mirror is horrible looking!!!

HummerNewbie 07-26-2005 03:49 PM

I would have to agree with Bill on that. So do I understand this correctly, they went to the outside carrier for '05 and then dropped it for '06?

Bill Kervaski 07-26-2005 03:51 PM

@HummerNewbie -

I think you have a choice, OEM tire carrier or not on the SUV. I don't see how the SUT could have the tire anywhere else.

HummerNewbie 07-26-2005 03:53 PM

Thanks Bill. I agree on the SUT but I thought all SUVs came with the outside carrier now. I didn't realize you had a choice.

aggiehummer...er 07-26-2005 04:01 PM

The tire carrier is still on there, this is all behind it.

They have to just keep trying to come up with the next cool thing or they are going to get canned. Ideas don't just fall from the sky, really good ideas have to be cultivated. Sometimes the designers just miss their mark.

Who I have a problem with is up the chain of command some. Who are the dummies that signed off on that, saying THEY thought it looked good an should be on the next year H2. They are the ones that need to be taken out back and caned. This bling stuff is just getting a little too carried away.

VTSTOMPER 07-26-2005 04:56 PM

you know what would be better?

Taking that chrome section out, and putting a HID or even LED off road lamp in there! Then you can go head on, or off to the side when you flip them in!

H2Blondie 07-26-2005 05:45 PM

I'm glad I got the 05 and didn't wait for that worthless change on the 06.

KenP 07-26-2005 05:53 PM

I don't really like it.

Everybody knows what an H2 looks like.

Landing lights . . . I like!

The new mirror kinda reminds me of a bling-toothed smile on a rapper.

Now thats funny....yep it looks like ****!!!!

I hate when people or manufactures write the name all over the vehical.....oh thats a CAMARO....oh look thers's a CIVIC...

H2005 07-26-2005 08:01 PM

Looks like ****. No bling bling for me.

DRTYFN 07-26-2005 08:18 PM

Plus, the base of it looks like Rosie O'Donnell's double chin and fat neck.

Andre 07-26-2005 08:32 PM

Maybe they fixed the problems....maybe these won't get loose or have folding problems.

You need to sell that idea to GM

GeneseeMtn 07-26-2005 09:18 PM

It would be great if you could get a Hummer without chrome from the factory without having to special order it.

I like the new black wheels on the alpha, better than the SHINERS from '01-'04.

DennisAJC 07-26-2005 09:24 PM

C@CKSUCKERS! That looks like ****!

I'm hoping this is just an aftermaket mirror since I haven't seen any REAL pictures of the new 06 stock this guy's touting.

Bill Kervaski 07-26-2005 09:28 PM

@dennisajc -

I agree that it could be b.s. Post more pics.

Yet the H2 is the worst offender. Off the top of my head w/o even looking it up I can think of 17 places where the H2 says either "H2" or "Hummer", if you did some shopping at SMA.

RasterMaster 07-26-2005 09:37 PM

Smells of BLING to me....wish they'd have offered mine without the chrome mirror caps, door handles, roof bars and grille.

The only differences they offered in '03 was with or without Air Suspension.

Not really sure what I would have to gain by lying about those mirrors, sorry I haven't been able to post any more pics, I've been on the lot all day (just sold a white SUT). Here's another one, they're all on lifts in the shop right now getting all the RPAs put on.
