Greetings,

Just joined forum after picking up a 2006 H2 a few weeks back. Always liked the truck....and the timing just seemed to work out. Found a clean '06 Slate Blue H2 with 75k, and the MB ML63 I was driving was no longer inspiring mechanical confidence so I traded her. Big difference going from the ML that hauled a** to this H2, but I like the size and feel of the H2. Had a 4x4 Excursion before the ML that I really loved.....and the H2 reminds me of that kind of ride and feel.

Let's see if I can get a pic to upload.

Earle from Goodyear AZ

 

Howdy and welcome from to HF from MI.

 

Welcome Earle from the west valley as well. I work out in Goodyear every weekend. Same color, maybe we'll see each other in passing!





There's my rig, I'll keep an eye out for you!

 

Welcome.

 

Nice looking truck.....looks like on the way down from Yarnell in the pic. I've got a quick question for you since you're local....who would you recommend if I wanted someone to do mechanical upgrades on H2 or if I need stuff fixed?

 

It is the back way from Prescott to the valley. Went up to Prescott for a day trip then took the back way home. In all the years I've been in AZ that was the first time I had gone that route. Very beautiful sights.


Depends on what you want done mechanical wise. I generally do all my own work. Only time my rig has been in the shop was to get the touchscreen radio programmed to the truck. I swapped it in place of the 6-disk changer.


There is a newer Cadillac dealership at Arrowhead. They have mostly the old HUMMER techs working there.

 

I used to do a lot of my own wrenching......but have trouble making the time and space. Thought I'd supercharge the 6.0, and maybe some other upgrades. We'll see. I like the truck but it needed a little more power. Even considered the diesel transplant but that is a lot more cash than I wanted to put into truck. Maybe lift it a little.

Currently in a speed shop in Scottsdale getting supercharger installed and tuned....looking forward to picking it up in a few days.

I was asking about a good wrench for the things that come up or I don't feel like jumping into as they arise. Will go by and talk to the guys over in Arrowhead and try to make a contact or two.

 

Arrowhead might be a good bet. I don't think there are many caddy dealerships in the east valley. Duramax swap would be awesome but I'm in the same boat, far too expensive for me.

 

Welcome!! What shop in Scottsdale?

 

I have it at DynoComp having supercharger, cat-back exhaust, and a tune done. Should be done today or tomorrow. Looking forward to getting her back
