Fiberglass H2
While driving home through our town last night, we overheard this guy walking down the street commenting on our H2...seems he knew something that we didnt...the H2 used to be made from steel, but now its fiberglass to increase fuel economy....who would have thought....a fiberglass hummer....so many rumors....

I had this insurance agent once try to convince me that my H2 was just a Suburban. Needless to say, I chose a different agent!

Re: Fiberglass H2
i have had tahoe/suburban owners say the same thing...told them to look underneath my H2.....and asked...does it look like a tahoe or suburban under there?.....the world is full of misinformation and people perpetuating it....just like the dork in my town that said they were fiberglass now....should have corrected him and said "if i wanted to wrap my ass in fiberglass, i would have bought a vette"....what didnt want to antagonize they guy in front of his young son.

Re: Fiberglass H2
 Actualy they had an o7 SUV proto-type at the homecomeing that was 100% fiberglass body. According to the factory rep all protos are done in glass and then when they go into production changed over. |

Re: Fiberglass H2
well based on the outward appearance of said individual making the fiberglass comment last night....i am thinking that he could barely afford to get out of town let alone find his was over to the hummer factory...maybe this could be the story line for a Mythbusters show?

Re: Fiberglass H2
now wait a minute...I heard in order to make them more environmently friendly they are going to make the bodies out of recycled milk jugs. and they are all going to have freon engines in order to make them more efficent...seems like a waste.

That was dumb. I bet the Tahoe would be cheaper to insure.
