Re: Finally! Got rid of the H2
I'm trying to remember, was yours Sunset Orange ? Was it a SUT ?
Sorry to Hear you had so many problems. Mine Has 38,000 miles on it and have had very few problems, pretty much wasted my money on the Extended Warranty. Good Luck with your New Ride !!

Re: Finally! Got rid of the H2
The H2s keep biting the dust. Saw pictures of two of them upside down after the tornadoes. Yours must have been made on a Monday. I've only been back to the dealer once in four and half years and 58,000 miles and that was for a faulty 4L lock button. I am on my third windshield from rocks too!
I agree that it was a big hit on depreciation, but when they came out everyone wanted one and they wouldn't dicker much on the sticker price. I tried out a Ford Raptor last year and it rode so stiff it was downright uncomfortalbe on anything but the smoothest of paved roads. One thing we do share in common though, is after years of being a GM man, with GTOs, Corvettes, a Cutlass or two, two Impalas, and a Pontiac 2+2 (yep I'm an old fart - past Medicare age) after what GM did to Hummer it left a very sour taste in my mouth. I don't think I'll ever buy a GM prodcut again and my four sons feel the same way.
I still enjoy driving my H2 and we just got home from a nice vacation in the mountains in Colorado with it. I plan on holding on to it until the the end. Sorry to see good people like you go, but GM brought this on themselves with poor marketing and now they are building cookie cutter cars and SUVs. I don't think the Volt is going to be a big savior for them unless the price comes down a lot. People in America love their big SUVs and not many are bigger and better offroad and on the highway than the H2.

Re: Finally! Got rid of the H2
This is my second Hummer H2 and I just bought another last week. Prices have never been better and I picked up a 2007 SUT with nav and 16,000 miles on it in Vermont for $30,900. My 2006 H2 has 78,000 miles on it and has only been in the shop once for a new BCM. It's one of the most reliable cars I've ever owned and this winter with all the snow we had in upstate NY it got through when most other 4 X 4s didn't. We now have two H2s in the garage again and I plan on reengining my '06 down the road and keeping it. I haven't been without an H2 since they first came out. This H2 is the first used vehicle I've ever bought, but it had a clean carfax and the owner had all the sales and maintenance records. I think you're going to miss your H2....eventually.

Fusion Orange, Limited Edition SUT. There's a bunch of pictures on here from some of my outings.
The car of my dreams turned out to be a nightmare!

A 2011 SC Raptor with the Hennessey 475 HP VelociRaptor upgrade
Tuxedo black and hard loaded. FWIW: The NAV even works down here in Mexico.
It absolutely rocks!
Here's a photo. She will be sharing garage space with my 06 Rubicon.
Leaving for my 28 day hitch in Africa tomorrow. Gonna seem strange to not have to disconnect the battery while I'm gone. ;-)
How ironic! It just dawned on me that this photo was taken in back of an old Hummer dealership.

Re: Finally! Got rid of the H2
nice truck. There is quite a bit you can do to those trucks to.
You can raise the coilover in front. second from top perch works well. To perch gets them sitting too hgh in front..although Truxx makes a kit that raises the rear also.
LED lighting kits for these trucks are nice. 20" bar kit, 50" bar kit, and Dually D2 kits.
That 6.2L hauls a$$ too. Love it!!!
