As far as mileage Im gonna say it depends on how heavy of a foot you have, around town with average driving (which I think is mostly easy acceleration with the occasional heavy foot to pull into traffic or pass) you should expect to see 10-11 and if you keep it 75 or under on the highway you should see 13-13.5

I drive ours pretty easy since it really doesnt do much to step on the throttle hard (its a 6400lb rig), my last fill up which was 75% towing (3 round trips) back and forth to the lake on streets with 35-50mph speed limits and moderate amount of stop lights I averaged 11.35 miles/gallon. I have no problem getting 12.5-12.6 if no towing is involved driving it easy and I stress easy, start laying into the throttle and single digits can become a quick reality...... also driving over 80-85 on the highway can drop you down to the 10mpg mark quickly. If you want to figure worst case scenario I would budget for 10-11mpg and if you think its not an issue to afford then go for it.

As far as purchasing an 04..... I would suggest buying the newest rig you can afford, I have seen some 05's for around $30K

remember as what Pure Justice said Hummer dealers are in a lot of pain and in desperate measures to sell vehicles so if you think youve got them as low as they'll go, go even lower, good luck with the rig!

I have a 04 and still love it. Sure, I do like the look of the new interior but its not worth selling my H2 just for a few more bells and whistles. (and 60,000 or so)

The Hummer like all big V8 engines will suck your tank dry.....but you have to look at the big picture. DO YOU WANT A H2! We all love are H2's and don't really care about the gas......

On the other hand you could get the smaller H3, but I wouldn't. Or forget the Hummer all together and get a Honda Civic, if 75.00-100.00 dollars a week (or less) is going to hurt your funds.

As for problems with my 04....None (knock on wood)
