Dallion.
I emailed the seller the carfaxreport you posted.
Here is the reply i just got from him:
"I have no clue what that means other than I know the miles are actual and
there was no flood damage to the truck I guarantee it. That truck still has
bumper to bumper factory warranty. So you are buying it at no risk at all."

Dallion: You may be a Hummer Novice on the site karma scale, but you sure look like a pro to me. Great job. It's people like you that make our site a strong resource.

Hey etg,
Check out http://www.autotrader.com/. I keep finding pretty good deals over there. I think they are worth looking.
Can you answer my questions above...
thanks!

Seller said the truck was "not damaged att all" in the flooding.
Carfax saids it was "severly damaged".
Is there any other place i can check what really have happened to it?

If nothing else, you have a nice truck to drive around for awhile.

Look around some. Sometimes you can get an even better deal than that. I seen an 03 with only 28k miles on it the other day for 34k.

Have you figured out how to take the truck to Sweden? How much do you have to for pay taxes etc... Currently H2 is not a streel legal by all the Europen Union standards. Depending where you live, you have to change the head lights, wind shield, brake lights maybe something else as well. Addition to that, you have to provide official test results regarding pollution, noise, brakes, radio frequencies and some other crap. All this depends on how much in detail Sweden follows the EU legislation regarding vehicles. In some places not at all, but as far as I understand the sosialistic governmental culture in Scandinavia you are not living in the easiest area... Believe me, I know!

FWIW, I bought a salvage title BMW once by mistake and it turned out to be a terrific car.
I notice a substantial fine print disclaimer at the bottom of the e-Bay page. Before you part with your money, I'd have someone take a look at the car for you (I notice you're in Sweden) and I'd also ask about the "... no damage flood disclosure." If the care isn't as represented, I'd squawk despite the disclaimer. I admit I've never bought anything on e-Bay.
The problem with a "salvage title car" crops up when you sell it. If this car is as represented and you're going to keep it for a few years, I think you made a very good deal. Also, the fact that you are shipping it to Sweden may eliminate the salvaged title issue.
Good luck and keep us posted.
George SSSS
