Victory Red anyone?

[JAYB1RD]

I thought I'd pass this along, since red is my personal favorite.

We just started painting the special edition Victory Red H2s at the plant this week. The first one rolled off the end of the line this morning, I have a couple cell phone pictures I'll put up when I get a chance later. I may even try to get a shot of it outdoors, if I can find it. Comes with the same options as the special edition Glacier Blue trucks had (no longer in production) but in a color more suitable to your local fire department!

When are they coming out with the special edition Capitulation Yellow H2?

[JAYB1RD]

No official word on that. If I had to, I'd guess the next special color will be comming late this year for MY2008 trucks.

What about purple? I would love to see a dark metallic purple. Hummer just keeps coming out with boring colors.

That's all marketing decion making, nothing we here at AM General can do except build the H2s they tell us to. Send in as a suggestion to HUMMER if you'd like, there's nothing an auto maker likes more than constructive criticism from it's consumers!

It's still not upon the website yet.(Victory Red)
If I would have known the red was coming out again, I might have waited on buying the Fusion Orange as I think the red is a lot nicer.

Tread Lightly,

Black Diamond would be great!

Me dealer told me about teh LE Red would be shipped to them in Feb/ March. STicker would be 74K.

I guess since the H1 is gone, we'll se the prices on the H2 keep going up.

I AGREE WITH TIM , OR SOME KIND OF BLAKC AND DO U KNOW WHEN THE NEW 2008 H2 IS COMING OUT? U PROBABLY CANT TELL.. sry for the caps

[Hummer Guy]

Coming from a person that drives white....

Vettster - Didn't see the Glacier Blue Edition on the website either. Must be WAY out of date or they don't put the special colors on there?

Htothe2 - I've seen and sat in a few 2008 H2s. I can tell you some big changes have been made. Unfortunately, I can't tell you WHAT has been changed, as I enjoy my job here I hope that sales increase as a result of the updates, I sure like them!

Hummer Guy - We were still painting the glacier blue trucks at christmas time, the red trucks litterally just hit the holding lots yesterday. Now they're all over the place, as in every other truck built is red! I started in the summer as an engineering intern. I stuck around and am taking classes nearby while continuing to work in the engineering offices.

As promised, here's a couple pictures I snapped of the first 2007 Victory Red H2.
In the middle of Trim Line 1

After Chassis Marriage, on it's way to Fluid Fill and Tire Install, then Final Line (where are the doors!?)

There they are! At the end of the Door Build Line! Notice the red X on the hood vent piece, that gets replaced later with the all chrome part, after the truck leaves the plant.


With the bright red paint, those sweet chrome rims, and carbon fiber interior...I think my H3 needs to be traded in for one of these!!

Very nice. Do you know when 2008 production will begin?

[JAYB1RD]

IIRC the 07s began being built around August, shortly after our summer shut-down period. I would guess that the 08s will start at the same time.

I was guessing the '07 run might be shortened to get the interior redesign out there and help the sinking sales, but who knows...

[Goalkeeper]

Really neat pics man!!

I love watching "How It's Made" on the Science channel...I'd love to see them do a piece on how the H2 is made...

I understand why you can't talk about the 08, I'm also in a similar position. Half the time I can't tell my wife what I'm doing!

With that being said, you MUST tell us about the 08's!!! Look, I'm not going to buy an 07 either way so....

Sweet Pics!

Gotta look under limited editions. The fusion orange and the powder blue are the only ones currently listed.
