I never did really introduce myself... been lurking around for a while and posting quite a bit lately.

I bounced back and forth for over a year whether or not to buy a Hummer.. finally did.

2006 H2 Slate Blue- Adv, Lux, ---24,800 miles.

Found it on Ebay.. Called the dealer and bought it directly. I'm in Oregon and the truck was a one owner from Orlando Florida.

Here's some pictures.... the camera the guy used isn't very good. The black looks much better in person.

Had is shipped here for 1150.00. Total cost after shipping was 31,950.... I think I got a great deal even with shipping.

I must have looked, online, at over 2000 hummers before I got screwed by the first dealer, GOODCHEV.COM out of Renton WA. just to find the one I bought a couple days later. It's not easy finding 06 under 30k miles for 30k dollars... but they're out there.

The truck is in excellent condition.... it needs a NAV disc, which I already bought, and the aftermarket DVD players in the back don't seem to be working right.. but I haven't really messed with them all that much yet.

I'll be turning most stainless/chrome to black.

New XD revolver wheels w/ TOYO MT tires on the way

This board has been very helpful and responsive to my purchase questions and the questions I've had since I got the truck. I've never had a truck before and I'm really liking it.

Thanks all for all the tips and advice..Most of the decisions for the new truck have either been suggested to me or I've read on this forum! :beerchug: :beerchug: :beerchug:

Nice rig. This gives me hope. I'm gonna buy an 06 sut this summer and was worried about finding a decent one. You proved it is possible. Ive seen them for less than 30k online but you get what you pay for so im not gonna go cheap.
