Default 2008 H2

Not only is it getting a 6.2L 403hp engine, but it's getting a completely new interior. Should be out this summer(July-ish). Price TBD.
There's also a 7 seater H2 coming. Basically it's just the addition of a 2 place seat in the back. No word on colors.

They've contacted me about making rock rails for it, but we're still $200K apart on the signing bonus.

What kind of interior? Hopefully the dash still resembles a Hummer and not an Escalade.

Finally, a new power plant! Are you sure?

I might be able to get down there. Maybe someone could get me some good access so I can gather pictures up close.

yeah, im really afraid of them turning the interior into something with bling. GM's pickups interiors are getting more blingy. h2's need to have a rugged interior, just my .02

I have already placed my order. i ordered the olive color. I have only seen teh color smapl, so it's hard to say how good it will look. it falls between the orignal green and the desert sand.

I have been working very hard for COHUMMER to get his sign on bonus. since I am the PR Manager for his fast growing enterprise, I see it only fit to get the sign on bonus and split a large portion of it with me.

Drty, I'm sorry you declined the COHUMMER/DRTYFN partnership. you could have had a good thing.

Somewhere I thought I read that the new SUT is coming out MY 2008....Maybe one of the 4x4 ragazines. Is this the change to the cargo area as stated on that site, or is that the seat reconfig? or does no one really know and talking out their arses!!!

This is not considered a redesign. It's a model freshening.

The complete redesign isn't scheduled for at least a couple more years along with the Duramax...

Are they changing anything on the exterior? I hope not. The H1 barely ever changed on the outside.

The side mirrors and radio antennae is the only thing I know of changing on the H2 so far.

Hopefully the outside will stay very similar, but the interior could be up-scaled a bit... (I hope they keep the jet-plane-shifter!)

Do you think the new engine will be equipped with GM's FlexFuel engine and/or active fuel management? (Where some valves shut off when not needed?) I think a boost in MPGs will get green peace off our backs and more people into the driver's seat!

I was thinking the same thing. The extra horsepower will hopefully give better gas mileage. That active fuel management on the Tahoes sounds awesome but I bet it complicates things under the hood, sounds expensive to fix.

I hope they dont change the exterior. Thats the beauty of Hummer. Only select few know if you have an 03 or an 07.

in my opinion, forget the bling. If I wanted bling I would buy an Escalade. A Hummer should be a truck first, users can add their own bling.

Yes they will -- and yes.
