Any Hummer H2 Owners Out There?

Notice that the opposing truck looks to be in better shape. The H2 crumpled like tin foil. My expectation would be that an HMMWV would have weathered that better. Plus, it's shielded against EMP (and about a thousand other neat features).

The H2 is not a HMMWV. It's an SUV designed to look like one. sorta

Take away the H2 stamps all over the dam thing. The rediculous rubber bumpers, side skirts, fender flares, horrid looking grille and you have a stripped down Tahoe. With a body lift... Yay!:rolleyes:

Ultimate Poser ride.

H1 or you may as well buy a Grand Cherokee.

"this is what you need in the city"


Hmm....maybe I could put one in the trunk of my Buick for use in case I break down.  Looks like it'd almost fit.

Yeah, I know, that's why I said I would expect the HMMWV to weather the crash better then the H2 in the picture did.  Significantly better.

That's from a commercial for the Canyonero, the SUV mentioned in the post above mine.  It's from The Simpsons.

Toyota Landcruiser? You have to be kidding me? Those things are a dime a dozen here. I couldn't imagine paying 15k for one even if it was mint with tons of extras. My second car was a Landcruiser softtop with a 350 in it. Great offroad but terrible onroad not to mention the gas milage but a great wagon for going hunting,fishing and pulling range rovers out of small bogs.

Have a modified Jeep Wrangler now and it's 100 times better then the old Cruiser ever was off or onroad.

yeah I got one......was a lot cheaper than the escalade or navigator and more truck than the 2 combined. Besides, i'm not one for "bling". Mine hasn't rattled and I take it off road on a regular basis. Trust me, that plastic interior is good if you go muddin, easy to clean. I only wish it had front lockers but you can get them aftermarket. My average gas mileage city & hwy combined is 12mpg so be aware. Depending on where you live you may catch some flak from the tree huggers, as I live in texas I haven't had that problem. So I guess the big question is would I buy another one? Yes. I can't imagine not owning one. I'd suggest taking the 24hr test drive.

LOL nice pic chairboy.....but what it doesn't show is the other 2 vehicles it plowed through before it hit that dodge ;)  that guy had a seizure while at the wheel. Besides, you WANT it to crumple, thats what saves your life, the cab looks intact to me :aok

Thanks Acid!

I'm not certain the chassis is from a Tahoe either....lit says the chassis is all Hummer.

I have a Suburban now and will keep it....just lookin to pick one up, let the wifey drive it for a bit and then sell it....not a thing wrong with some quick money....if not, I'll just keep it.

The best thing about it is it's not like everything else everyone drives around in....this from a guy who drove Saabs for 10 years:)

as far as the frame is concerned you can break it up into 3 sections, the front 3rd is a modified reinforced version of the 2500-series frame, the middle portion is a box design strictly for the H2, and the rear 3rd is a modified reinforced version of the 1500-series frame

No question... 15K is a too steep.

Still... I'd love to have one... or, I saw a really really nice Defender-90 a few weeks ago... wouldn't mind one of those either.


Oh... and those Rubi's are going for $28K.
