ahh, ok thanks for that info.

It's an H2, who cares about mileage???

Denny Crane 06-16-2005 05:48 PM

I too have been using this feature with the Supercharger it does make a + effect on the mileage. I think due in part to not needing more pedal to get going.

The only shift point i find a bit long is the final 3 - 4 which occurs at or close to 60.

I use it alot and have over the 3 years we've had ours.

It's electronic control of the shift points and you can have twice the fun if you buy a programmer for about 3-400. It gets even better launch and worse gas milage.

Dennis, I love your signature line.

I find that the only negative to using this mode is that the OD does not kick in until 55mph....so if Im in a 45mph area..and actually doing that speed, the engine stays in 3rd, or about 2300 rpm'ish

That's the beauty of it. Just press the button to turn it off!

What a difference. I drive in the city in gear 3 but there still is slow reaction time from my sut when trying to pass other vehicles etc. In tow mode and gear 3 my h2 seems like its always ready to respond immediatly. On the hwy I drive in D and leave tow mode off. Does anyone think that I am potentially damaging my tranny by driving the way I do in the city. I'll tell you guys one thing, its nice to have the reaction time from such a big heavy vehicle.

Alec has a fancy interior.

HummerNewbie 06-17-2005 06:32 PM

Alec, can you take some better pics of the interior. Know someone who would like to do that to his interior.

looks like dads old buick with the wood, nice look

Mr. I - Man 06-17-2005 07:27 PM

Wood is Good!

DennisAJC 06-17-2005 09:41 PM

Conrad,

I was very surprised to when I accidentally discovered it.

I use it all the time when towing or hauling heavy loads, but what a diference when I have it on all the time! VROOOOOM!!!!!

Ricers eat my dust.

P.S. The last time I sat in Alec's H2, there was an overwhelming smell of Pledge.

DennisAJC 06-17-2005 11:07 PM

Sweet!
