Buying a used H2 that was former rental??
What are your thoughts on buying a 2008 H2 that was a former rental vehicle? Seems in great shape, low miles, and comes with 6 year 100,000 mile warranty. The gut says stay away as people tend to beat rentals but perhaps I am wrong.

Go for it if its well priced. They usually dont rent out premium suvs to your average person so it probably wasnt beat up at all.

6 year/100,000 warranty sounds like Hummer Certified. Hummer Certified is hard to beat and if the price is right - GO FOR IT!

I wouldn't...but that's because I drive a lot of rentals. And if I had an H2 as a rental...OH NO!!!!

Re: Buying a used H2 that was former rental??
Thanks for all the feedback. I have decided not to go for it as I now find this was a rental in Hawaii and there is an unexplained brown material on the front frame and suspension. I am concerned that it is a corrosion issue and even the dealer does not know what it is. The price was fair but I do not want to have corrosion problems on a vehicle that is just a year old.
Thanks again for all the feedback. Had I known about he corrosion issue I would not have bothered you fine folks.

If the price is right I would also say buy it.
The warranty good also so they must want
to stand behind it too. ~Richard

Like the others have said, good price, good warrenty, go for it! Take good road test. Check out all the transmission settings and gears. As long as it wasnt in a bad accident anything can fixed under the warrenty. Get a car fax on it.
