New here.... buying advice for 03 H2

[pdxrealtor]

Looking at an 03 H2 for 27,750.00. 34k miles, luxury package.

Is there anything I should be looking for, or expecting while looking at 03's?

The price seems extremely good for the condition it is in.

For me, as long as it tows, I'm happy. It has no roof rack, which doesn't bother me.

What do you hummer vets think of the price assuming it's in great condition.

What should I look for / be aware of when looking at 03s?

Thanks for your help.... I'll be searching the board while I await some advice.

sounds like a good price for the low miles.

[pdxrealtor]

Yes, from the research I agree. It is yellow, do they have a lower re-sale value?

Anything I should be aware of with the 03's???

I have an 03 and have had good luck with it. The mirrors were the only issue I've had with it, well my front diff also, but that was my doing, my extended warranty paid for new. I would recommend buying an extended warranty for seems like little things always pop up on these things. One thing you'll enjoy to know is the 03's were the only year made my AM General and the others by GM so YEEHAA.

I would agree on the extended warranty. Little things will pop up. My instrument cluster went out on my 03'. LF Axle seal had a small leak. Power steering hose had a little leak. Just little things to be expected from a truck that is 5 years old. You will love the truck though! My 03' is for sale

Price was just reduced to 25800.00.

It is through a private party so extended warranty is not an option.......

Thanks for replies. Sounds like there are no major "first year" issues. It always makes me nervous buying any model of car / truck that is a first year release......

Correct me if I am wrong but all H2's are made by AM General under a licensing/marketing agreement with GM.

not bad I just picked up mine for $30,000 with 18,000 miles on it. No warranty on it then one month the wiper motor went, that cost me around $320 and found out later that my mirrors are supposed to fold in but only half way, dont care not going to fix that. gonna spend some money on the new kenwood dvd radio coming out in a month.

We have a Yellow 03 and we love it. And if I had an extra $25,000 I would buy it too.
Do have it checked out.
Do get a warranty and take care of it and it will take care you for a good
while too.

The old style mirrors were always a problem but they can be taken apart and serviced to work good as new. Use the search button as there are articles on this subject.
