H3 to H2

[USMC_315]

if they didn't have the trakcs, its probably a package then

if you don't have a large family then i wouldn't try and look for one with it. im constantly strapped for cargo space (which is ironic considering how big the deuce is) and keep tellin myself im going to take that and the spare tire out of the trunk

Yo will be happy with an H2, no matter what year you chose!

That's part of why I ended up with the 2 I did. No rear set (which once or twice I've wished I had) and external tire mount. You can get an external tire mount for the older H2s, but they are not cheap.

Haha, I saw that thing too when it was on CL in New York. It's traveled a long way, dropped in price, and had a bunch of owners. I'm guessing that it is a basket case.

Oh, and a left front collision with airbag deployment.

...And boom goes the dynamite.

Airbag deploy... would that make it a salvage title?

I moved from a 2008 3.5L H3 to a 2007 6.0L H2 and I absolutely have no regrets. I love my H2 and I cannot see it being replaced by anything that is on the market today; it truly is "like nothing else".

Watch out for leaks around the a-pillars inside (to left and right of windshield) - the leak could come from many sources and I have been tracking mine (very, very lazily) for the last two years. Try to avoid the adventure series with the rear air bags - they are known to fail and you are better off replacing with coil springs anyway. Otherwise, AFIK there is no difference between the luxury and adventure.

I personally looked for a 1st generation (1.5 generation?) because I liked the original interior with the "boobie vents" - the 2nd generation looks like every other 08-ish GM truck... the original generation looks like a Hummer.

Good luck!

Call and ask...

Call and ask...

They probably won't tell you. They are trying to move iron. According to them, it's perfect condition.

There was a hint of sarcasm in that last post

^pretty spot on

Pull the car fax and bring it to a mechanic for a full check.

 

[skeptic]

Whatever you end up with (after checking car fax and having a mechanic look it over), buy an extended warranty. Neither a car fax nor a mechanic can tell you what's going to break 6 months in the future. I don't know of any outstanding issues on mine other than some lighted buttons that don't light up (I need to check if that's covered), but I feel better knowing I have 2 years left on my warranty. I made getting a good warranty for a good price a requirement for buying my 2. I was ready to walk and go to a different dealership that had a much better and cheaper warranty until the finance guy "found" another option.

Just thought id post a little update about that yellow h2. Today i went over to jacked and talked to the worker/salesman at the dealership and eventually we got on the subject of a trade. He said he would be willing to trade my h3 for that h2 i hv been warned previously by a few of you to stay away from that h2 which i will probably end up doing but thought id post a little update on the situation[emoji106]

 

[Cyouincourt007]

I Wonder what ever happened with this mysterious H2 and anbtroop what happened still searching or what....I thinking once I pay off my h3 id definitely be interested in adding an h2 and all other hummer models as well. The jay Leno of hummers hehehe

I checked over a few others and decided to stick with my alpha for now. I'm not far away from no longer having payments and that'll be a nice change. $$ has gotten diverted into the trailer build :wink:

True that! I've been browsing those military style trailers on ebay and government auctions so I know what you mean.:giggle:
im quite sure I saw a pic of your trailer on here somewhere on some thread and it was sweet.

 

[ABNTROOP]
