HUMMERDOGG is an unknown quantity at this point

In my research of this very topic, I have learned that maintenance record history is a must. If the thing hasn't been maintained then plan on paying the reaper which is where you end up getting alot of the horror stories from humvee.net. It's from guys who bought used vehicles that weren't maintained. Like you, I will drive the vehicle sparingly since it will be my second driver. I thought I had a 2002 Wagon with 6,500 miles bought for $54K +TTL but the deal broke apart over the weekend. The person insisted on only taking $59K for it and neither of us would budge. The H1's residual values keep dropping extremely hard so you should be able to get what you want at a price that works for you. Just keep in mind, the more miles on it, the more chance of maintenance issues due to poor owner upkeep. Also, be careful of buying a used 1998-2001 with mileage under 50,000 due to the issue of the #8 cylinder being bad and requiring a completely new motor. I'll let one of the more knowledgeable guys on here address that problem.
