Re: AM General shuts down H2 plant
I'm one of those guys that saw the '03 and just had to have one. Getting one under sticker price was unheard of then. Then I just had to have it lifted, put on the big tires, change the axle gear, put on the gobi rack and light bar etc.- Hummer lovers are familiar with this story. I love my '06 SUT as much as the '03 (maybe more) and at one time we had two H2s. Fortunately, my wife is as much a Hummer fan as I am.
I've been driving a Hummer H2 for over six years now and it's still fun everytime I crank it up. I've taken a doctor to the hospital in a snow storm with it and took a pregnant neighbor to the hospital in a blizzard with it. I've taken numerous people from our office home in blizzards in my H2 and traversed a few flooded roads and creeks. It gives me peace of mind to know I can go in almost any weather almost anywhere.
I'm hoping someone keeps the light on at the H2 factory, but if that doesn't happen there is an AMPLE supply of H2 parts around it's just a matter of money. If something has to be machined, my H2 repainted, or the engine has to be rebuilt, so be it. If they stop making them, I'll do whatever is necessary to keep this one like new, I plan on having this H2 many many more years. I WOULDN'T DRIVE ANYTHING ELSE! If gas goes back to $4 a gallon, so what - the H2 is much more than transportation for me, it's a hobby and lifestyle. You gotta pay to play!
