Hi!

I already got a super-large German book on the H2 but I am looking for more literature on my favourite car.
Does anybody have an idea about more HUMMER and Humvee books?

Cheers!

I have a really good book about the conception and design of the H2. I'll have to look when I get home and see if I can find it. I'll post author and title if I find it.

Thanks for the answer! I'm looking forward to learn more about the book.
Do you know the H2 book from Germany? Here is their website: www.h2book.com

Cheers!

This book is an INSANE 1000 Euros.

That's $1570.00 USD each.

That is INSANE.

$8.75 per page.

That is INSANE.

Plus shipping, tax, import duty, insurance.

Budget $9 per page total.

That is INSANE.

Oh, wait, I forgot to mention that most important thing. YOU are insane if you buy one... Did you hear me?

Any fatcats still want one, just cause you got everything else, including the H2 golf caddy?

I think everyone should boycott it. It is not much inside. You can see some blinged out SUT on the preview pages. Sick, and not in a good way. Just my humble opinion....

Hi,

thanks for your comment. Yes, I am insane because I also like my H2 because it's big (especially here for the narrow Austrian roads!) and I don't mind that it costs a lot of money (much more than you pay in the US!!!) to refill. And yes, I was insane enough to buy this book because I think it matches my car very well. And it's worth the price because it's made in a great way and because it's as exclusive as my car - at least as it is here in Austria.
Anyway I am still looking for more books on my favourite car. Maybe some that even suit your budget for books. Do you know any?

Best regards from snowy Austria!

Dear Bob,

sorry, I didn't write it. I just like it - nearly as much as my H2.
I love reading books and so I am still looking for more books on my favourite car. Do you know any?

Cheers!

Well, we are all a bit insane for owning these vehicles, so there is nothing wrong with buying the book.

Have not seen any other books about the H2.

But, there was a great Hummer documentary on US TV last year sometime, and it was downloadable somewhere. I do not have any details on it though. I think it was called Hummer Nation? It had lots of coverage about the H2. Some (at least 2) UK (Nigel) reviews also on the net of the H2.

Hi!

Maybe that's the same feature that was aired a few weeks ago on DMax, the German outlet of the Discovery Channel.
Unfortunately I didn't tape it then but I am sure they will repeat since they are repeating shows such as American Chopper on a monthly base.

Cheers

Otto
