My h2's done with

[HumminNBoatin']

Brad,

Sounds like my advise is a little late but I would chime in anyway. Bottom line is it sounds like you dont have the $7G's liquid to do the fix. But the vehicle is paid for and you knew you could get money down with it on a new truck. Now with that beeing said.

The whole thing comes down to you wanting to conserve a little money. Well man its a great thing that your pop's found the problem to be minor. Did he already scrath you the check? Is the deal done??

Just keep in mind a H2 might cost $$ to run and maintain BUT, if its paid for well thats alot cheaper than a new Car payment and maintenence.

Yeh he is cutting me a check for 13k and then hes gonna turn around and sell it and give me the difference.

Im sure an 06 is worth a lot more than $13K even with no engine, hopefully you get a big difference

If your father is trying to teach you the right thing to do, it probably isn't a good idea to get rid of a perfectly good PAID for vehicle for another. Unless theres an absolute must for a different vehicle, it just sounds like you WANT something new?

Im not trying to sound like a jerk or anything but maintaining a vehicle is a lot cheaper than getting into car payments for the years to come.

I would fix it, and keep it.........no way would I get rid of mine. Once you get use to driving a Hummer, there is no other vehicle that can compete with it.

2007 Hummer H2 (27,600 Miles)
2008 Hummer H2 ( 8,200 Miles)

Both have been trouble free, with no problems,

Sorry to hear you're having trouble with your truck Brad.

Whatever you decide, I'm sure it'll be the right decision for you. There has been a lot of good advice on here about how to keep it though, and whatever you do, BUY AMERICAN!!! (my .02)
