GM, please give us the Duramax
 
Seriously guys, Ive had a lot of SUV's and trucks, and the hummer is nearly perfectly what i need. BUT BUT BUT why cant they give us the dam diesel (duramax) option. I would be willing to pay for it, and im sure most everyone here would also (but im not willing to pay 30K+ for a conversion, although i cant say it hasent crossed my mind).

I know, the transmission, transfer case, blah blah blah. Just give us the dam option and rape 8K out of us for it.

Is there anyone out there that does not want a duramax in there H2?

Won't happen on the GMT-800 H2. After the H2 goes to the GMT-900 platform, look for a non-Duramax diesel, either that or a Duramax without the Allison tranny.

All i hear about the duramax is good things....strange. I dont see why GM wont give it to us ASAP as they KNOW we are all willing to pay for it.

John:

Where did you get the switch to allow full NAV controls while driving :cool: and how much did you pay for it? Will it work with the factory NAV unit and what mods if any will I need to make on the NAV unit? Thanks!

Don't bet on a non-Duramax diesel. Why would GM buy somebody else's engine when it owns Duramax outright?

putting a diesel in the h2 would be a very smart move, probably sell a lot more, the added expense for the diesel would also pay for itself in fuel consumption

Were getting close to getting a new ride and unless H2's have a duramax soon , i think i'm going back to a suburban. But i plan on keepin the H2 around to tinker on . I plan on squeezing a duramax in it if i get in the mood. Why dont you put a Dmax in yours on your own instead of hiring someone else? Sounds like you really want one. doug
