Did not know that....

Nice asphalt queen. If I wanted an Escalade I would go out and buy one... other than the rear view mirror with pop out monitor...I don't like it. I like the old interior much better, all things considered, with all the upgrades alot of us have done to our rigs our interiors are in pretty damn great condition along with the Nav and stero upgrades. Cosmetics are okay, but where it really counts is in the suspension and off road handling capabilities, I still see the same old Tie rod, Pitman and idler problems have not been addressed, nor has anything been done to beef up the CV's or spider gears in the front diff. There is a reason COGNITO built the Idler & Pitman support bracket, Fabtech designed a better tierod and Moog built better CV's...it's called a design problem! 6th gear...whoopadee doo...don't care for it. I'll wait until they make a real improvement like an Alpha H2 with an extra 100 hp's so that when the government decides that we should all be running 100% Ethanol the horse power we loose will not be noticed. For crying out loud build a bigger better monster!

Well... Okay.

I heard a rumor today that the H1 will be returning in the future.

I don't know if I believe this rumor or not. But I would like to think it is true!

I think you can get the rearview mirror on any model, not just the LE's. I liked my old setup better with the standalone camera and hitch mounted camera. The camera mount on the one I looked at pointed too low in my opinion.

When looking at the new GM interiors that have come out within the last year, I did not like the change in the seats. I find the old seat design, still in the '07 H2, to be much more comfortable.

I like they are trying with the interior but they really need to spend some time on the technology. As was previously mentioned, really need bluetooth. Also could try a little bit harder on the stereo, its a shame to pay 55K or more and to have that poor of sound. Hopefully the new NAV will also be acceptable. Hard to imagine that you can't operate the NAV and listen to a CD at the same time. Almost didn't renew because of the technology. I loved my '03 but the shortfall of very common technology discouraged me.

I also echo the desire for the diesel but last I heard was not to expect it before the 2010 model and maybe 2011. That will Be perfect timing to trade my '07.

That's correct. (For H2s)

That new motor and tranny is an excellent upgrade. I don't know about the other things on your list though, but they're good points. I don't think anyone's mentioned if they've improved those or not.

I was talking to a first hand knowledgeable person today and the orange interior in the pictures, isn't going to be that orange. The leather in those rigs is messed up. It should be fixed for the production runs.

Again, the 6.2 and six speed is an awesome setup. The deeper first and second gears allow a taller gear ratio. Two mpg increase across the board will be a good deal for H2 sales. We may be buying one.
