Okay, I can't stay away.... looking for another H2.

[OrangeCrush]

As many of you recall, I sold my H2 about a month ago. I hadn't really been driving it around much and the thought of paying 750 bucks a month (payments were only 600 but I always pay more) and not driving the truck, to me, was a waste.

So here I am not driving the truck, paying money and gas prices going up.... I figured what the hell, I'll sell her.

Besides, the truck had 103K miles on it and it was only a matter of time before I had to rebuild the trans or something. The supercharger was probably wearing out other components prematurely anyways.




I decided I'd buy something more practical and economical with lower mileage so I bought an '05 Jeep Rubicon. I installed new wheels/tires and a lift.

I drove the truck less than a week to realize it was never going to take the place of my H2.... not even if I just let it sit there and drove it once in a while.

And to top it off, I paid cash for the Jeep which was about a thousand dollars more than what I could have just paid the H2 off for.

Sooooooo, less than a week of driving and I've decided I'm going to build another H2.

I think this time it had to be new so it has the black interior. I want it black or I'll paint it satin black. I want to lower it 3-4 inches and remove all the chrome. I want real tires, no stupid wheel/tire combinations that look like it belongs on a jacked up impala.

I want to remove all the 4WD stuff...ie, brush guard, luggage rack and stuff like that.

A stealthy, lowered, supercharged H2 that looks like it came out of a Mad Max movie....

So, the Jeep is for sale and I'm on the prowl for another H2.

Guess you guys are stuck with me for a while again.

I'll keep ya'll up to date as I start the build.

Buddy,
Knew you would not last long without an H2. Glad you are making choice to go back with the best rig on the road. I'm surprised as I thought you would last a little longer. Main thing is getting you back and good luck on your next H2 build.

These things just get in your blood and you can't go without one. I was close to selling our 2003 in 2006. I let our son use it while he was at Randolph AFB in Texas and was about to sell it to him at a bargain price, BUT my wife started complaining about not having the Hummer. To make a long story short, we flew down to San Antonio and drove the Hummer back home (my son now has a Hummer Certified 2007 H3). In 2006 I found that my wife was always somewhere in the H2 during hunting season or driving me to work in the snow, and got myself an 2006 SUT. So, we went from a no Hummer family for three months to a two Hummer family (three if you count our now married son). They are just so comfortable and so great out in the brush & snow you take them for granted.
Good to have your input again on the forum Orange Crush! Weclome back!

We told you so!! I posted a similar story on here with my H2. Giving in to the economy and gas. Gave it up and couldnt live without it. So I found my SUT and wont ever go with out a Hummer again!! I think there needs to be a support group for Hummer owners who start to stray.
