Wow. Where to start...

Do you also wonder why a Range Rover costs more than a Land Rover Discovery?
Or why a Chevy Corvette costs more than a Chevy Camaro?
Or why a Ford F-450 Pickup truck is substantially more expensive than a Ford F-150 Pickup truck?
Or why a Ferrari F-50 is hugely more expensive than a Ferrari F-355?
Or why a...

You get the idea -- the bottom line is that they are completely different vehicles.
Go figure out the answers to those questions, and then we can discuss the detailed reasons for the difference in price between an H1 and an H2 if you like.

There is a reason a H1 are the prices they are.....there a much more capable truck....ever wonder why the military is using them. The H2 off road capability is no where the same as H1. There is alot more technology invested in the H1 then a H2.....and damn H1's look so much meaner

chsnprodigy, are you saying that H2s are mainly built for soccer moms and afternoon suburban riders ?

I didnt say the H2's are mainly built for soccer moms and afternoon suburban riders...I didnt say that at all. And if your taking what I put the wrong way, im sorry. But the H1 is in a completly different league compared to the H2. There is a reason that the military didnt addapt the H2.....Im not saying the H2 cant go wheeling.....but its not in the same league as a H1. I know this will rub alot of H2 owners out there the wrong way...but im just saying it as it is.

Don't sweat it... Alex was a troll... we knew what you meant.

It's no damn different than the F-Series trucks.... something for everyone... just Hummer has haters. At least I never saw my F-450 buddies laughing at my F-150 buddies....
