"Soccer mom interior stuff" hater! Please elaborate(sp) I've had my sedona interior looked at a little side-ways by friends, never called soccer mom


FlexFuel capability,6-speed tranny and gear ratio I believe. There are numerous others, but it depnds on what you are wanting to compare.

On this discussion, does anyone know if the 6 speed trans from the 6.2's can plug into the 6.0's?

I am pretty sure they bolt together the same, but not sure if a computer is needed to have the 6.0 run with a 6 speed. Anyone know?

when I was looking for purchase my first H2 the interior was a HUGE part of the buy. My regular dealership had everything from 03's to 08's. For my personal taste I really don't care for the updated interior-its almost too nice. I love the first style that my 06 has, more utalitarian (sp?) and manly looking lol

On my 05 I LOVE the rugged look of the interior over the newer style. The only drawback is the squeaks and rattles that I have had to ferret out and add felt or weatherstripping to cure.

For whatever reason they switched to 3.73 gearing in the 08+

This is because of the new 6 Speed with its wider spread of ratios. You get a lower first gear (and better crawl ratio) and a taller top gear.
