ORIGINAL: dapembroidery I was just kidding about weighing 400 pounds. Can any of you enlighten me on how you decided on the Hummer you have? Why the H3 over the H2 or vice versa? Still trying to decide what I'm going to get. I think the H3 would be a better daily driver, but darn it--the H2 is just so FUN to drive! I've seen some 03 and 04 H2s for around the top dollar price of a new H3. Although a warranty is very appealing to me as well. Thanks, Danielle H2 have more toys H3 just a basic suv that's why they are much cheaper. The one that can help you be shortbus he has a H2

my decision was easy. the H3 wasn't out when i bought mine, but i wouldn't have gone that route anyway, since part of my decision was for towing. i tote a 21' camper, and my supercharged 4runner did ok on flat ground, but hills were a problem. i imagine the H3 would have the same issues as my 4runner did. now that i've seen them side by side, here's my take on some of the benefits of the H2. only opinions, not necessarily the views of this forum or any of it's affiliates! you mentioned you do search and rescue with your dogs, the H2 has a lot more room in back for them to be comfy. they may need help getting in, my boxer needs a hand to get up there (but she's 8 and gettin' creaky). there's an available winch in a cradle that can go into the front or rear receiver, in case you need to pull something out of the way, or do some recovery work. the H2 is a good bit heavier for that as well. Hummer makes some nice waterproof seat covers for front and rear, to keep the dogs and muddy people off the leather seats. more interior room too. and, best of all in my opinion, most of the bugs have been found and worked out of the H2, so major repair work shouldn't be necessary if you go that route. If you can find an '03 or '04 under 36k miles, you can get an extended GM warranty. i went the GMPP route and have basically a factory warranty to 93k miles, $100 deductible (it's already paid for itself) you'd get better mileage in an H3, and could fit into some smaller spaces than an H2 could. an H3 can go just about anywhere an H2 can go, it's very capable in rough terrain (like CA highways). recovery accessories are starting to become available, so you shouldn't have to worry about that. you mentioned you were 400lbs, so the H2 suspension may be better suited to support that (just kidding, i saw your retraction). if i had it to do over now, i think i'd still go for the H2.
