That is funny. I was a member on that forum, till my two month old avalanche got totaled by a toyota camry that t-boned me at 15 mph. So I decided to get a real truck and now I'm here.

That's funny. The vid I saw looked like the H2 drivers was a moron who couldn;t drive for$hit.

Having owned, wheeled, towed with three AV's and 5 H2's, I can tell you the H2 would win with equal drivers. Sure, lift the Av and throw some 35's on it, that helps with clearance, but also robs power too. I still love the Av's. It's a very practical truck with as many upgrades to mod as our H2's...if not more. If Chevy came out with a capable lifted, locked package to compete with the H2, I;d be all over it.

BTW- It's an AV forum (which I am a member over there as well) and the bashing will continue. :drama:

If someone really wants to find out, I'm sure we could set something up. Post this link over there. I think it would fun if anything else. If I still had my H2, I;d offer it up for a run or two.

And if you guys do figure something out, be cautious, the last thing you want is someone to snap some POS tow strap and have a shackle go through someone's rear window.

I traded my 04 Avalanche in toward the H2. God only knows why I had bought the Avalanche. I never could get to like it.

AVs look like an after-thought. What an ugly POS half-breed vehicle

You must not like the SUT than either. Because that was based off of the design work on the AV.

I do like the mid-gate functionality on the AV and the SUT. I don't like how you lose the climate controll and can get rain inside, wen you have the windows down though so maybe you are right;)

What a great idea Mud Diver had to tear up his truck. Its clear those guys dont wheel those rigs on any good trails--Mr. Eeaton5 is very ignorant but im glad he likes to "offroad" on dirt trails. Please be ready for some serious offroad action!!!!

I used to have an Avalanche and we traded it for our H2. I loved that truck but I love my H2 even more. I actually wish I could keep both. :)

I was going to buy an avalanche before I bought my H2, VERY glad I didnt! I love my H2, couldnt imagine driving anything else after owning one! The avy is a nice pavement pounding suv/truck, but for my money, cant beat the all around capability, luxury, and styling of the H2.

The early AV's just looked really cheap.........I like the newer models w/o all the plastic moulding of the past models:p .

Awesome replies Boss, you stayed on topic and just stated facts after facts after facts while they're just trying to smear dirt.

You :OWNED: them

The only nice thing with the AV's was you could get a big block (8.1L) That would be different to see in an H2.

I wonder if this idea of an AV out doing a H2 a result of one, who's wife said he can't own an H2, or excessive dope smoking. LOL

Probably the first.

I would like to think it is just pride in ownership but there is a difference from pride and being dilusional. Im not sure about the pulling deal but they AV would have a heck of a time following a H2 on a trail thats worth a darn.

Since it was done on a paved surface, it seems it all depends on the traction that the tires give. Just can't imagine them being any good offroad.

in the vid of the pull off it, looks like the hummer won and the guy in the forground whas about to wave them to a stop, the H2 stopped and the AV gassed it and pulled him back, you can see the hummer driver stick his hands out the window like "what the **** are you doing I have won and can't pull you any further"
