hi guys,

need some advice here...

found a new '08 H2 SUV at the dealership for $45k (MSRP sticker $59k). Wonder if it is a good deal, seems not bad to me. I haven't seen the vehicle in person yet but thinking about going to check it out. Not sure how many miles on it. I wonder if dealer would get rid of 3rd row seats for me, I need cargo area, not seats.. I'd trade-in my H3 after thinking about it for some time, also wonder if there is any chance that I could get the price even lower. I'd be willing to pay cash. Also depends what they'd offer for my H3 (6.5k miles only); truck is minty, despite off-roading every once a while. I could swap my M/T 33's for original blingy 20" 305-50-R20's and reinstall chrome stepbars for more appealing look (for most buyers anyway I think).

thanks!

here are details:

MSRP $59,285
