Introduction; Former 06 H3 Owner - New 07 H2 Owner
I am a co-owner of majorgeeks.com and also drive a Viper and a harley and jet ski when I can. Video game player (mainly WoW) and handgun lover.
Former H3 owner, loved it for its size, pushing gas pedal got painful after while due to back problems. Too bad, I really loved the truck. Beat it like a dog to see what it could take and was pretty impressed with it for the price. I even wrote a long review of the H3 on these forums some time ago that took weeks to write.
Drove Lincoln MarkLT for past 8 months but missed the Hummer, so decided to get the big boy. Great ride, fast, capable and as comfortable, if not more so, then the Lincoln. Loving it. I would like backup sensors (they work great for me if you ever had them, cameras are ok but sensors are just idiot proof) and retractable steps instead of the oversized nerf bars that seem too much work to clean. Plus, it would show off the trucks ground clearance while being functional.
I got flipped off today for the first time, but she was smiling so much that it made it pointless, I found it hilarious. Always laughed at that fuh2.com website. I decided to send them a picture of me (seems not too many Hummer owners do that) with my H2 and made sure I had oversized man parts for the joke. I call the picture fufuh2.com, second pic attached. LOL  I made sure that I told them I was hung, in case they didn't notice. We will see if they get the joke  Hope to see you all around more! |

How do you like the change from the smaller H3 to the H2 for driving around town. I'm thinking about the move to the 08' H2, but concerned the truck might be too big as a daily driver. Curious if you notice a big difference in driving it?

It fits in the car wash. Some older parking garages can be close. The auto retracting mirrors make it so things like the ATM at banks are easier, though getting your money is harder. The horsepower difference is huge. So, no I dont really notice a big difference so far, it fits in parking spaces, etc. Of course, I dont park it too close to other cars anyhow, I learned long ago people dont have respect for others peoples nice cars. I would say that backing up is probably a bit tougher, though the visibility seems better to em on the side windows.

Mike, I own a SW9f, Ruger 22 and Taurus pt911. Also a Benelli shotgun.
Zx1100, yes I am a member at viperclub.org. Since I sort of like my Viper as is and dont drive as much as I would like, I rarely frequent those forums. |

That's funny right there, slam fire baby. Don't get caught like that, and don't shoot yourself.

Re: Introduction; Former 06 H3 Owner - New 07 H2 Owner
I want to say its the Glock 18 that is a full auto pistol. Its not available to us civilians. You can see it being used in Terminator 3. I've never seen or shot one, but sure looks like one fun pistol!
I've ran about 5000 rounds thru my G 26 without a failure, probably 1000 thru my G17 with the night sights....and about 500 thru my G17 with std sights...all with no failures. They will chew up anything you put in them.
I carry for protection since i am work in real estate foreclosures and I wouldnt think of carrying anything else.
A freind of mine just bought a Ruger P95, nice gun, but i prefer the Glocks.
