Thats Right! Another New Guy :-)

[Mully]

Hello;

I am probably not the typical guy here judging by others posts but I do share the enthusiasm. Isn't that what it is about?!

I just bought, off of ebay, site unseen with no PPI http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif a 2003 Black Lux H2. Yes, it has chrome, I didn't do it, and yes it is primarily for my wife to drive. Told you I wasn't the typical one http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif. In all seriousness, we love boating and camping and can't wait to get it dirty!!!

As I know the story it belonged to a Xerox Corp. executives wife in or near Mendon NY and it was "to much truck for her". It has 18,000 miles on it and as far as I can tell, every option on it except Nav. and DVD. No SC or chip. It goes on the truck in New York tomorrow morning to be shipped to me in Washington. It is black. Sage green and black rims was the dream!!! Anyone have a picture of that??? I really wanted a Sage Green but the one I Sage I did find was more money and had 40,000miles on it. I am considering having the upper third of the body painted a different color and changing the rims when I need new tread. Also thinking about air, exhaust and chip to breath better.

Anyway, I am glad to be getting it but need some more background information on the 2003's. By reading the boards it seems this year had more issues than any other. Is that true? Could you guys please give me a list of things to check or have the dealer go through? It is still under warranty till next summer and I plan on taking it to the dealer fairly quickly to have them go through it. Any advice on recalls or things to look for would be great. I did see the noises thread on weather stripping rubbing on rear door. That was a great thread to read. Where do I kick in a few dollars to keep this site up and going? That kind of info is invaluable.

Thats it for me. I am looking forward to makeing some new friends, pissing a few off and all in all (not really looking forward to that), having a hell of a good time with my family and our Hummer!

You sure got the color right. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif Welcome to the forum.

[HGW]

Welcome---I have an 03 & an 04. No real problems with either.

Your H2 looks great.

[LoLo]

Welcome from another "newbie"! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Mully, my husband would agree, and fit right in... he bought ME a Hummer, and hardly ever gets to drive it!

And what's this about the "right color", KenP??? I happen to like my PEWTER rig! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[HummBob]

Black AND Chrome!!

Gotta Love IT!

Welcome http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[CBR_Raven]

Congrats Mully...That's a good look!!!

[alldunn]

Ditto on the color...it doesn't get any better than black http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif.

[tower]

Black 2003 H2's have been remarkably trouble free. But only Black. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

As long as you are having your local dealer go over the truck, ask them to download all the updates into your on-board computer. If you have air suspension, have them chack that as well.

Also,A little bling on black looks really good, EVEN OFF-ROAD! So don't be apologetic.

The '03 models didn't come with nav. I have an aftermarket Magellan Roadmate 700 which I love. If you want the "factory" look, there are several threads here about retrofitting various devices, some of which incorporate DVD and Back-Up Cameras.

And if you want to do some fun wheeling with members in your neck of the woods, hook up with DRTYFUN in oregon or DennisAJC in B.C.

Mostly, welcome. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

[DRTYFN]

Sorry, but we've already got our token bling bling rig in our group. H2Rocks' chrome jungle gym roof rack could fill the quota for 2 rigs.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

[ROX]

Hey! My rig resembles that remark! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

BTW, Mully, nice black and chrome Hummer H2! Don't loose that Bling! It sets us apart from the other primates! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Are you two married? Or is there another Mully we don't know about? One in Texas, and one in Washington? http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif

[LoLo]

Uh, no... not married.

My statement was TO Mully... not that my husband IS Mully. Guess it was a little confusing! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Well that is great news on the black ones! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I will have the dealer go through the air suspension and computer for sure. Thanks!

I did notice on the owners map that there are very few members in this area. I checked the club link and there is one guy listed as the administrator or something like that. That has to change! Last weekend I met up with 47 other Porsches for a drive. We had to break into three groups and it was a blast. I LOVE to drive and can't wait to get onto some local trails. I know Eastern WA has some great sandy areas. Well, I heard that anyway. It is on the way to MOAB! That has to be done. And, I also have a friend who went on a drive between to towns in Colorado that was something like 47 miles and it took all day doing the easy stuff. Now that sounds fun http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

Anyway, nice to meet you all and any additional items that have affected more than just the occasional person would be helpful.

Oh, one more question. Who is Dan's avatar? She makes it hard....to focus on a thread http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_redface.gif

Lolo, Does your husband know about your affair with Mully? http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif

NOPE! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif And, apparently, his wife doesn't, either! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Oh ****, this is how rumors get started! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

[Slingshot]

I do believe the proper response for a new member with Blingy things on his truck is....
BAD NEWBIE!!!!!

Your truck looks great Mully.
Have some of the same stuff on my Black 05

Mully,

If you ever plan on doing a B.C. run (The food and shopping is better here http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif), give me a PM and we'll hook up.

My boys are 2 and 5 years old and almost look similar in age to your handsome devils so they'll have a good time.

I'll help you spray bomb away that chrome. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

My oldest just turned 5 this month and the younger one is now 17 months and can hold his own ground. BC is so beautiful! Got any great places to take the H2's? There HAS to be some amazing photo ops there! I am so jealous. We love heading up to Whistler. Ready for the Winter Olympics?!?
