new guy looking for a comparison?

[edbrick]

Ive owned two Tahoes, 02 and 05 and I used to own a 03 H2. As far as gas mileage the Tahoe avaraged 15mpg the Hummer 11mpg. The room inside for the family is pretty much the same. If it was me my choice would be H2. It is like driveing your sofa. I loved driving it and am planning on buying an H2 sut soon. The 08 H2's are supposed to be better than 03-07 so you have to consider that also.

No comparison get a H2 I live in Germany and put over 8500km since April on mine.

Hi i have a 08 and it gets 13 to 15 on the highway it depends how heavy my foot is. Just buy it, you only go around one time.

Thats why I bought mine. I loved it but had some reservation about price and gas. I have never looked back and am on my 2nd H2.

In my experience the '03 and 04's squeak, creak and rattle more, even at low miles (25k), especially if they do not have the LUX package installed. The colder it gets out the worse the inside creaks. The 05-07 are noticeably better and the 08-09 are fantastic. Last year I test drove (and bought) an 08 Escalade. The Esacalde was just so much nicer riding and quieter, power, etc than the H2 that I ended up selling the H2... This month there was some good 09 clearance sales to be had and I bought an 09 H2 (figuring it was the last one around too) and just picked up a new 09 Escalade last week. To my surprise this time around the H2 is noticeably quieter, much smoother ride and the engine power is almost up there too with the Escalade... The new H2 interior I didn't like at first, but it grew on me so fast, I can't look back at the older style, I just wish they would change the outside now... It refreshed my love of Hummers all over again too...
