Knowing that nothing can/will compare with the Hummer I decided to go pretty basic. It was hard to find the manual 6 speed but I really wanted it. Just the basics like power, a/c, am-fm-cd. I paid $19,700 out the door. That is a bumper to bumper extended warranty for 7 years and life time on the drive train. I was planning to pay cash but they have a $1,200 rebate if you use the 0% for 48 months. It is a 2009 vehicle.

I agree with you 100%, there is no comparison between the two. H2 has a lot more vehicle but the price reflects it as well. We looked at it as an inexpensive way to still have a reliable off road vehicle and have some fun.

To each his own in these dark times, but as long as you are happy, that's all that matters....you are the one paying the note not anyone here. So best of luck to you and congrats on the new ride. Be safe and God Bless......Jamie

Why not pick up an 07 H3 with a manual transmission? Where is the loyalty? Even if GM goes bankrupt I think that parts will be readily available and then maybe the evil UAW will be gone for good. MAYBE THEY CAN GET 95% OF THEIR PAY WHILE THEY ARE LOOKING FOR A NEW JOB.

That would be sooooooo hard to do. I could not get rid of my H2's I have owned Jeep Grand Cherokee's, Ford Expeditions, Ford Excursions, Lincoln Navigators, and before, there was always a vehicle on the market that would catch my eyes and make me wish I had it. Now that I have my H2's there is no other vehicle on the market I wish I had. I am 110% completely happy with mine. Since they are cutting it off, debating weather to go and grab a 2009 up before they are all gone.
I really hope someone will buy Hummer, and keep the H2's and H3's around. They are just too good of a vehicle to dump.

This might be one of the reasons that new H2 sales are way down.

2009 Hummer H2 - $72,865 vs 2008 Hummer loaded with 12k miles listed at same dealer for $46,000. Which would you buy?

just looked on the Hummer website, and one reason they are not selling is because they have NO DEALS on the H2's

My 2007 is financed on 60 months @ 0% Interest
My 2008 is financed on 72 months @ 0% Interest

GM is offering the 2009 H2's @ 6.9% Interest.
Who in there right mind would pay that???? Especially in today's times.
Most all car companies are offer special low, or no interest rates.
6.9% INTEREST????????? Wake up GM if you want to sell some H2's

I hope it works out for you but you'll be back.

About 5 months ago, I bought my wife an '08 Jeep Wrangler. I bought her an automatic AND a 2WD. I figured it would be cheaper to buy, she doesn't go off-road and would be better on gas.

Better on gas my ass... I'm lucky if I can get 17 mpg. That's RIDICULOUS for a V6 2WD automatic.

When I sold my H2 about 3 months ago, I bought a Rubicon Wrangler... installed a liftkit, flares and wheels and tires. It's a great vehicle but even with a 6 speed on the highway, I get 12mpg. That's RIDICULOUS.

The thing rattles, (thank God I have a hardtop on it), steers all over the place and lasted for 2 weeks before I put it up for sale and I bought another H2.

In fact, I still have the Jeep, it hasn't sold but I don't care, I'm just glad I got into another H2.

Like I said, hope it works out for you but trying to compare any Jeep to an H2 is like comparing hotdogs to steak.

Good luck, talk to you soon when you come back.

Mark
