Its been 2 months and I cant get over How small it feels. I called My Hummer delaership and am going to look at an 08H2 SUT this weekend. I went with the trail balzer trying to convince myself that gas prices are going up and I really didnt need to have a monthly car bill thats that costly. Well now I realize that I realy miss the H2. It was worth the extra money every month and from what I understand you can get 15MPG on the 08 ? ****, I'm getting 14 in the trail blazer!! So now I hope that I can get out of the Trail blazer with outtaking much of a hit.

A-Yup, the SS is a sport unit. Big diff between and the H2....
2-MPGs seem inline. I roll 12.5 in my JEEP....
3-Speaking of which, why did ya buy the slow sport SUV?

My solution: Get a used 05 LUX for 25K'ish. Problem solved.

I live in Manchester on and off for a good part of my life and I mde the mistake of trying to deal with them when they were called Dobles, for Corvettes and H2's. They get about one Corvette convertable a year and would rather sit on it and get retail than knock a penny off the price. I actually forgot and went back to them for my 07 H2 and spoke to the manager directly and he wouldn't go more than a few thousand off which actually surprised me he would even do that.

Sooo I went to Herb Chambers in Danvers Mass and spoke with the new car manager there (I forget his name) and I got a new 07 for $1k "under" invoice which was like $7-8k lower than Dobles. Now I forget but there was some kind of rebate then because the 08's were out and of course you might (probably) not get the same deal, but they do have a ton of H2's in stock.. As a matter of fact most of the Massachsetts dealers do, and they want to move them unlike Quirk in Manchester who only gets a few H2's in a time...

Also if you don't know, if you are a resident of NH, you will not pay any Mass sale tax on anything you buy, vehicles that is...

follow up, I just checked the Herb Chambers website and they do list as having a slate blue metallic 08 SUT in stock, Model Number:RN25736 ... and I remembered the managers name was John Ricco. Tell them the couple from NH that bought an H2 from him and wrote a letter of praise to his boss Herb Chambers himself, sent you, He'll remember us...

John Ricco is the man.....he made my deal happen...could not deal with Manchester.

as far as i can tell i get 11. it gets fed a solid regiment of good old 87 octane with all kinds of running issues, such as rough idle, stalling out etc.... but i really could care less. I don't even change the oil anymore. The way i have it figured out is who really cares....? it's covered for 5 years, and when it comes time to trade or sell, the dealer or a retail buyer looks up the value and that is what you get for it.
