Yep, what was that color called? Sunset orange or something like that?

Thanks for the pics, 3. The blue H1 is something you don't see very often.

I can promise you all somehting it was NOT sunset orange, i know that color from any angle thats my favorite color ever made for the H2, besides sage green, this one was defintly that solar flare orange color, it was non-metallic, also saw it again after dinner at night with the other light and it was that same color, not any different from when i saw it at day. Most likely custom painted, there are more then a lot of custom painted ones down here.

I was at the Hummer Plant 2 weeks ago (as part of the Hummer Academy) and we got to examine the 2008 SUV and SUT inside and out.

From afar, the chrome front AND REAR markings are very obvious. Closer up, the HUMMER logo was moved from the chrome grill, down a bit and smaller to the black part of the front bumper. Of course, the side mirrors are the current "new" style. These would be the quickest and most obvious way to tell a 2008. (There are more changes, but more subtle).

The Chrome front can be done aftermarket, I'm not sure about the rear. The HUMMER logo either in the Chrome grill (pre-2008), or lower and smaller in the front bumper (2008) are the key.

honestly, i don't think that's an 08, but the interior would of been the final verification.

that H1 is awesome FTW!!

It must be custom paint on the rig in photo since it does not have an ant. on the passenger side hood vent. 2003 and 2004 had ant. on cab top. I think some late 2004 may have had ant. on side but, not sure. I know of only a few 2004's sold in our area that were late year 2004 and ant. were on top. I got an 05 which is when ant. went to pass. side vent on all 05 and later. Plus when i went to buy on 04 and got an 05 I was searching for orange first then green. It was May 04 and they could not even be shipped in as painting of those colors had stopped in March 04. Dealer looked and could not get one traded for. I wanted orange bad but, no go. I ended up getting one of only a hand full of the stealth gray SUV in Arkansas. Hummer stopped painting that color short also so they could make it a limited color which makes one of them worth more for dealer to sell. Same as they have done with other colors and will keep it up I guess.

It appears that i can see cab ant. for radio. My eyes are not the greatest and pic is grainy so I could be wrong. Do not think so though. The orange in the pic is darker than the later special addition orange that came out. Custom paint could be the reason for disparity. But the rig is early model H2.
