I'll be keeping mine for many years as well. At least until gas gets so crazy its just not feasable to drive any more. I like the looks of the Ford Raptor but yet its no Hummer. My 06 is paid for now with only 33K on her. I think i can get 10 more good years out of her before any major work. Well see what the future brings, for now shes staying right here.

I'm keeping mine until one of us die...

BUT...if something were to happen (god forbid) and I couldn't find another H2...I think I'd have to give up the 'off-road SUV' thinking and go with a hopped up Avalanche or a Ford Raptor.

I will never lose my enthusiasm for off-road adventure but I don't think I could make the conversion to Jeep. While I have lots of respect for Wranglers as off-road vehicles, I just can't deal with the cramped interior and limited cargo space. I need BIG and bad.

I've thought about a actual HUMVEE...but just like the H1 they'd be much more expensive to maintain. At least with the H2 there's a lot of cross over parts with other 8 lug GMs...that keeps the 'cost of ownership' down.

Just my 2 cents.

We will be keeping our 2008 for a while...... I would really love it if GM began making the Suburban/Yukon XL 3/4 ton with a Duramax or Ford would make the Excursion again with the powerstroke

For me I guess it'll be yukon or suburban.

Would it be selfish of me to be buried in my H2?

Absolutely not! BUT you better have one big, f-cking burial lot!

There's nothing out there like the H2. One of the guys in the office has a Raptor - nice truck but they ride VERY firm without a load in the bed. He carries around 400 pounds of sand in the bed now to smooth out the ride somewhat. For the 30K it would cost to trade and get a new SUV, I can sink a lot of money into my H2 and that's exactly what I plan to do over the next decade. If it gets stolen or lost in a disaster, I'll buy a used H2 and refurb it to my standards. I think down the road, there will be a big market out there for some company to sell restored H2s with like new interiors and overhauled or new engines and transmissions.
