Calgary?? Kool!! I'm in Calgary... I have not seen this truck...where in the city did this person fill up at? Are you a member of the Canadian Hummer Club Alberta Chapter? PM me and I will fill you in.

I would be wondering as to how much torque and HP's he is loosing running the propane...it's a nice clean fuel, not to mention cheap, but it does have it's pitfalls. When on a trail you can't risk popping the tank with a sharp rock or you'll kill yourself and the next closest person to your vehicle, it must have a really good shield around it. But in the end, it's a very good idea!

Cheers!

Hello! Yes im from Calgary! And NO this is the only website i have seen so far. Havent done much checking though. Like i said i was driving down deerfoot when i saw this truck. I followed him to centex" on blackfoot trail.

So i love my new truck and all so i emailed a few places about this propane conversion and this is what they told me:

I wrote this: I was wondering what kinda cost and effectiveness would be propane on 2003 hummer h2? Would you tackle the job?


The H2 has been converted a few times out west and has been successful. Most
vehicles save about 40% of their fuel costs when there is a 50% spread in
the price of the two fuels. The cost of the conversion is $4900 + taxes.

If you are interested, I will phone my supplier to get all the information I
can on the Hummer such as tank size and driving range.

YES will do! i already emailed him back and just waiting for reply. Maybe if we get acouple guys that would like to do this swap we could get a discount. I personally would have gas/ propane setup. Just in case im driving in some rural area and there's no propane around...lol...

This would be a great alternative, but you are correct in the comment about needing to 'dual-fuel' this setup. I believe the dual-fuel is the default setup.. at least that is the way I recall it being done in the past.

Keep us all updated on this please..
