Hey JW,

I may not have all the answers, but I can tell you my experience and what I found out from my research recently before I bought my H2.

Keep in mind, the engine on mine is a 6.2 as opposed to 6.0 in a 04.

1. What does the Hummer get for MPGs in the city and on highway?
On an 04, realistically you should expect to get 8-9 in the city, 10-11 on highway in the 04. The 6.2L engines fair about 10% better. This of course depends on your driving habits.


2. Are there any known issues with 04 H2's I need to watch for?
Hit the technical discussion section of this forum. The folks here have been pretty good at posting things. From my past experience in the military and driving these vehicles, the things are built like a tank

3. what does it mean to be a Hummer or gm certified vehicle?
This basically means you get an extended warranty with the vehicle for additional miles and that gm has performed its checks on the vehicle. Of course, go to the GM site for all the in and outs of certification.

4. Any pros or cons you can give me for 04 H2s?
So many pros to mention for me. Cons are not really existant for me.

I will say this though, right now you have alot of leverage in your buying power, more so then you may think. Check out sites like autotrader.com and keep in mind that the prices they post you can at least get $3000 off the vehicle. They will tell you that they can't go any lower, blah blah blah, but once they know you are interested in the vehicle, and you start telling them you can move on another vehicle similiar to what they have, they are all ears. Just have to be patient when negotiating, the vehicles are not moving.

And finally, with any major purchase, such as a house and vehicle, be sure you are never stretching yourself thin. Always be prepared for the worst. So if the worst does happen, you are not constantly worried.

There is my 2 cents for the day. Good luck in whatever you do.
