hello
 

Looking for my first hummer. I like the h2 but not sure on the year. Any suggestions?

I have no H2 suggestions, but I did want to say welcome to HF and good luck!

Last two years of production had a better motor and tranny combo.

hello
 

but i been told h3 are under power. I live in beach area but when we have storms need power to get through the mud.

H2 or H3, your posts are confusing.

You been told wrong. H3s with proper tires can go anywhere. :cool:

H3 3.5L: avoid this one due to engine issues (first model year)
H3 3.7L: 239hp/241ft-lb mated to a 4 speed. (higher gearing)
H3 alphas (5.3L) have a lot of power(option in 2008-2010): 300hp/320ft-lb mated to a 4 speed. (lower gearing)
H2 2003-2004 6.0L: 316hp/360ft-lb mated to a 4 speed.
H2 2005-2007 6.0L: 325hp/365ft-lb mated to a 4 speed.
H2 2008-2009 6.2L: 393hp/415ft-lb mated to a 6 speed.

The top end in power/speed is going to be either the H3 alphas or the H2 08/09.
Arguably, if you want the older H2 interior (many do), the significantly lower price would allow you to drop in a supercharger & more than close the power gap.

As Doc Olds said, these will go anywhere with the right tires.
