I have a couple photo albums online from events I have gone to. You can see them here and here.

Here are a couple random pictures:







I hope to speak to one of the banks I deal with in the coming weeks and see if it is possible to arrange something with my student loan. It might look odd for a full time university student to be driving an H2, especially with a part-time job of stocking shelves or whatever I can find that will work with my classes.

wow those pics are awesome, look like you really had fun. I thought you were co_hummer or something at first with the yellow h2, lol. Man i really need to go off roading soon, i still havent had time to even take my h2 out for a spin on the dirt.
and hey, theres nothing wrong with a full time university student driving an h2, i do it =P

Keep it man, I live 2 blocks from UNC in Colorado and let me tell you, chicks dig the H2. Any student driving an H2 is pimpin it for sure! Got to have the blondes ~

Back to business, the duramax will be in 09 H2, so just wait. But dam, $25,000 doesnt sound too bad for the conversion. It it was $15,000 i think it would be very popular.

Call me a skeptic, but when someone bids a project for me and comes up with a round figure like $25,000.00 then it seems like BS. I'd rather see an itemized list of parts, cost, hours, and mark-up.

Every shop is entitled to a fair profit and reasonable mark-up on parts, I have no problem supporting a justified price structure- but don't let anyone snow you, make them show you a written estimate.

And $1,500.00 credit for the engine / trans is robbery. Especially considering they can certify it's functionality before removal, helping their resale cause.

So he is being generous with the quote, but screwing people on the trade-in? I agree that $1,500 is not much, but I have a hard time believing that someone would screw you on the trade-in, then be generous with the rest of the quote. If the person is in the mood to screw you, they will offer $1,500 for the drivetrain and still charge $45,000 for the conversion. Just my two cents with how I see it.

Of course, if anyone was to have this conversion done, I would hope they get a formal quote before dropping their vehicle off.
