With the H2's mid-cycle enhancement on for 2008 model and coming in 2007 it remains to be seen what all will be done. Of course, Susan Docherty, who is no longer with the Hummer division, said that the interior would be upgraded (think 2007 escalade/tahoe).
I don't know if the H2 will be put on the GMT-900 chassis then but it's also apparent that they will stick the new 6.2L with around 400HP 400lb/ft of torque and the Hydra-Matic 6L80 tranny in it.

So, I just have to milk these last 33,000 miles on the warranty until the new one comes out.

If they go to the new platform (which they will) then there should be enough room for the Duramax. Rumor mill is also talking about a Full size Hummer truck NOT the H3T but based off of the H2. The H3T will be finalized over the summer if it is a go. H3 according to 2 seperate sources will have a V8 option in 2008.

I can't tell if they are going to the GMT-900 for the '08s or not. The Pickup will definitely be built off of the GMT-900 but with the contract with AMG through 2009, GM might keep the "guts" of the H2 assembled there without a major retooling and then in 2009 move an all new plant that would assemble a redone H2 on the GMT-900 platform.
I don't see the H2 SUV or SUT with a Duramax until after 2009. The pickup will have it. |

An H2 quad cab would be cool... Oh wait, I have that already.
HoKC, my dealer mentioned that to me about 6 months ago so hopefully that will be true. I'd love a REAL p/u bed.

That's the pic. I'd just have to make sure to order it in Pewter. Pewters are keepers.

I love that pic. Dude behind Mel Gibson dude had a head blowout in the back and the yellow H3 looking thing had a bad touchup job done to the windshield area on it.
Is it just me, or does this picture look like it was taken in the eighties. |

Are you insinuating that it's a photochop? 
That pic is a crop from a much larger two page spread from the H3 book... |
