Hummer H2 Test Ride

[Joey D]

A friend of mine her dad just bought a new H2. It's yellow with a bush gaurd. He let me take it for a spin. WOW!!! It's the coolest thing I've ever driven. My friend Steph was with me and she put it Ruff Ryders. The stock system sounded great. They are Bose speakers. But it was pretty sweet rolling down the street in an H2 listening to Ruff Ryders with a chick right next to you.

I'll be test driving one as a replacement for my Tahoe in the coming weeks. I can't wait! How does it handle? Does it have a good turning radius?

 

[Joey D]

It turned great for an SUV.
Pick up wasn't very good though. You really had to floor it to get it going good. But then again its really heavy.
The suspension is pretty stiff but still a nice ride.
The gas mileage is horrible though. It only gets 10 mpg in the city.

$48,000-$52,000 for an H2.:reallyodd

 

[Joey D]

Well her dad paid a lot less cause well he works for GM.

 

[Dudebusta]

if he just uses it for a town car, hes a wanker.

 

[Josh]

$50,000 isn't that much...it's just too much for a Hummer H2. Look at 'em. IMO they're fugly. Pontiac Aztec fugly.

youre joking right? thats around 90 000 australian dollars. thats about 10 grand more than i make in a year, thats a hell of a lot of money for something that he probably wont even use properly!

I have driven an original hummer, and an H2. The original kicks its ass so much it is not even funny, and we were going up 60% mud grades in the original. Shame.

 

[Joey D]

Her dad is in to camping so he's using it for that. But why your asking. If you've ever seen the places this guy goes then you would know why he bought a Hummer.

 

[Dudebusta]

its a bit of an overkill dont ya think???

when i go four wheel driving, i enjoy a bit of a challenge.

Annually, my Dad alone makes over 4 x's that as a Captain for American Airlines. He also flies for the United States Air Force Reserves, but I don't know how much he gets for that, not much I'd assume...he just does it because he loves flying and wants to do it as much as possible. On top of that, my stepmother is a Captain for United Airlines. So, $50,000 isn't that much IMO.

 

[Joey D]

Ok her dad make 175,000 a year so there rich

Did you guys know that the 99% of Hummer buyers are male?

I saw one of these - I especially like the automatic shifter! It looks like a plane! Still, I wouldn't buy one. I don't see the point. Jordan, if I were you, (I'd buy an M5) I'd get another Tahoe - they're still the best in the segment!

 

[1X83Z]

By the way, sr780: Do you have a Chevy S-10 crew cab cutaway picture in your avatar? :reallyodd

 

[Joey D]

yes that this is a S10 Crew Cab

 

[Robin2]

wouldnt you rather have an S10 than a hummer?

i know i would.

 

[Josh]

Nobody in their right mind would rather have an S-10 than a Hummer.

 

[bigwhlkid]

the new hummer H2 is just one of the many disturbingly ugly vehicles that gm is putting into production. 10 mpg wow i mean why not put a diesel in it, what idiots.

the S10 has appeal...the hummer has none.

its a compensation for small nuts

 

[1X83Z]

The Hummer can climb a two-foot vertical ledge.

 

[Robin2]

bullshit

 

[Joey D]

No I'd believe it.

The reason there is no diesle is due to the fact GM couldn't find a big enough one. They are making one and will be out next year. Also a H2 Convertable is in the works for the 05 modle year.

I'd rather have a S-10 then a H2 because of the gas mileage issue. Also like some people know I'm buying a S-10 in the Spring. Most likely in April or May. In time for my 18th birthday .

I'll most liely get a Basic modle, cause its cheaper then a Xtreme. Plus I can drop it and put some other stuff on it.

I thought so, too, when I heard it. But it's do-able. These things are the number one off-road vehicles in the world, no denying it.

find a video and ill beleive it.
