Wrong.  GM bought the Hummer name, and then contracted AM General to make the H2 across the street from the plant that makes the H1 and HMMWV.

Probably all got shipped to Venezuela around 2007. Gas is super cheap there, and used cars are used as a hedge against inflation.

OP. ALL THE DOUCHEBAGS TRADED THEM IN ON BRODOZERS


Why an H2? Why not a Tahoe or Blazer?




Why not a Jeep SRT or cayanne Turbo?

H2 is literally the the construction dude in the villiage people.


JGC SRTs and Cayannes are basically hopped up station wagons.

I think DarkCharisma intends to leave pavement.



Then he doesn't want a H2 unless he plans on leaving it there....

Go land rover.   It's still more reliable than GM garbage



Uh no, even in GM's worst decade, they still ran circles around LR and it's lack of anything remotely resembling reliability.



That would be any decade.

And once you take them off road, reliability is roughly equal.  If not better for LR.

Notice the post by the guy who taught at the off road school in the H2

There really are not that many LR's locally compared to any other SUV and yet, the ones I see on the side of the road broken down seem to be, at least half the time, a LR. [usually a Discovery]

Look at the depreciation on a LR, it's staggeringly high, that corresponds to their track record of poor reliability. That said, many owners are more then willing to overlook their faults so they can claim to own a LR. [until the warranty ceases ]

It's not likely what you'd suspect, or am hoping I am on to.

The H2 does better than your average full-sized SUV and pickup offroad for all the reasons I mentioned. It is essentially a hybrid Tahoe/Suburban with some off-road additives.   It is not purpose-built like a Wrangler, and won't behave like one. Inversely, a Wrangler won't behave like an H2.

I used to teach off road driving for a school that had (for a while) H2's.   They broke ALL the time. Steering, front CV's etc... ALL the time. The skid plate under the engine broke a lot too.  Eventually, they gave up on the H2s, cleaned them up, took off the school decals and traded them in to dealers in NY and NJ. They have no idea those things had been through hell.  I snapped a front axle driving gently over a phone pole diameter fallen tree.  A fricken lifted Corolla could have done better.

So people with little to no experience learning to drive off road broke a very heavy 4x4 on a test track where they're taught to go over various tough obstacles?  Not surprised.

You can't drive the H2 like a Wrangler.  They weigh like twice as much.  Weight is one of the issues.

The best off roader?  No way.  Not by a long shot.

But they are what they are.  They do decent for a heavy truck.

If you buy an H2 thinking its gonna be a beast on the trails, you bought wrong.

I have one because I like the styling, it can tow decent (for my needs) and I can afford the gas.

Steering components are the big weakness.

Cheers!

Non Rubicon Jeeps are popular for one reason, they are extremely easy to mod and the aftermarket has a billion parts to upgrade them with. Rubi's are very capable from the factory but you are also paying for that capability, it damn well isn't free.

I had a hell of a time modding a SUV that had limited aftermarket support. I did it but I also had to find parts that would work and then do more work getting it dialed in. [like building my own spring packs]

You're continuing to miss the point.

The H2 is a compromise, like most things.  It's a Tahoe with better approach/departure angles, larger tires without increased ride height, better traction aid, and a stronger running gear.  It's configured in a manner that you can have your family, or seven buddies, and go places with reasonably more aptitude than you otherwise would be able to with a similar-sized vehicle.  An infinitesimally small percentage of the population would regularly use the off-road capabilities of a Wrangler, but a much larger sampling would use a third row and a beefier running gear to load up their kids' shit and take the family camping in some semi-remote areas for a weekend.

The designer of the H3 needs to ne shot. You have to take off a skidplate, just to be able to take off the skidplate blocking access to the oil filter when you change the oil. How hard would it have been to make an access hole with a removable cover like they do on some Fords? The extra $45 would even be justifiable on the $50,000+ sticker price.

You summed it up better than I ever could.

A true trail monster - NO WAY.

But with wife, three kids and a dag pulling a 5500# RV I could never consider a Jeep.  And I LOVE Jeeps...

Fact is my H2 goes off road infrequently.  Where it really does belie its size.  They can run better than most expect off road, but I am realistic in regards to its abilities...

But you have a camero

That's just as good

Do you have a tapout shirt?

It's an automotive mullet, and a great way for government subsidized motors to reclaim government subsidized pensions from retired prison guards.   The perfect car for  the company store.   If only the government could get into the North Carolina time share business you would have a perfectly circular economy.

You're continuing to miss the point.

The H2 is a compromise, like most things.  It's a Tahoe with better approach/departure angles, larger tires without increased ride height, better traction aid, and a stronger running gear.  It's configured in a manner that you can have your family, or seven buddies, and go places with reasonably more aptitude than you otherwise would be able to with a similar-sized vehicle.  An infinitesimally small percentage of the population would regularly use the off-road capabilities of a Wrangler, but a much larger sampling would use a third row and a beefier running gear to load up their kids' shit and take the family camping in some semi-remote areas for a weekend.

Jeep accept no substitute.



... unless you want something with a third row and a 3/4 ton running gear.



Yeah because I get stuck off-road with 7 buddies and a bed full of shit from Home Depot

Look buddy.  I don't need to get it.  I'm just here to make fun of H2 drivers, and hopefully H3 drivers.   Actually the H3 drivers would be ideal if they poked their head up.

JGC SRTs and Cayannes are basically hopped up station wagons.

I think DarkCharisma intends to leave pavement.

OP. ALL THE DOUCHEBAGS TRADED THEM IN ON BRODOZERS


Hardly. I'd love to park a H2 next to my brodozer and CTS-V.  I can't find a decent deal on a clean H2 anywhere.


Why an H2? Why not a Tahoe or Blazer?




Why not a Jeep SRT or cayanne Turbo?

H2 is literally the the construction dude in the villiage people.

A certain ghetto part of me wants to get an old Cayenne Turbo and mount all-terrain tires, a hi-lift jack, jerry cans, and a big spare tire. SWMBO does not support the idea on the grounds that Ramen noodles are not acceptable for a primary food source for the kids. She has some strange idea that it could be a money pit.
