Default H2 Hummer

I pretty well much have my Duramax Sold so I'm Kinda looking around for something else. Its going to be a while till I buy but I'm going to keep my options open for the time being. I've always wanted a H2 but instead of getting a Hummer I bought a Duramax.

What Kind of gas mileage does a H2 Hummer actually get. I've looked it up and the answers I'm finding is all over the place. This is not going to be daily driven so its not too big of a deal but if they are getting 8-10 I will look start looking at something else.

I had a 2003 Tahoe and the family loved it. I'm sure my boys will love it since it has a lot more room than the Tahoe had.

Is there any issues, Good, Bad, Junk?

Thanks for your input

The H2 is a Tahoe.. You will get a whoopin' 11 mpg's. I compare the H2 to those Colorado's. JUNK! Of course my NEW Denali was Junk too. I have owned them and wouldn't recommend one to the Taliban..

I just sold my '03 and only got $11,500 for it. Mileage topped out at about 14 on the highway. Stay away from the air suspension cause you will end up switching from air bags to coils and will have SN annoying 'service air suspension' code. As I understand it is the fittings that leak. Check out front suspension. Since they have all had big wheels since day one they wear pretty quick.

PM me if you have any more questions

I had one and averaged 11 mpg between city and highway. Comfortable truck but just not worth 11 mpg

My boss has one and averages 12 with mostly city driving. He bought it new and it has been very reliable. I think he has 125k miles on it now.

Those things suck on gas mileage as everyone can agree, they're tanks and only have a 6 liter

I agree with AGRV8D, get an h1
