That is correct. My research confirms this.

It sure doesn't seem like it.

Still ugly....and stupid...I'm sorry, but for Porsche to make this is just really dumb.

But hey...whatever....

Lots of H2s in the area....

Stil haven't been able to figure that one out.

???????????????

Either they are falling out of favor now, or else GM is making way too many.

One of the local Caddy dealers (Casa de Cadillac in Sherman Oaks in the San Fernando Valley) also sells Hummers, and they have a *****-load of H2s on the lot. When they first came out they were getting serious mark-up and they were sold as quickly as they arrived...now the lot is flooded with them. Not sure if they have made too many too fast, or noone is buying them any more, or both.

They are big, ugly, and if you saw that video that is circulating on the internet, useless in off-road situations.

I'm fairly sure I read about this dealership being attacked, amongst others. What dealership was attacked if it wasn't this one?

Clippinger Chevrolet/Hummer in West Covina.

(Just checked it out on the internet news services.)
(Actually I thought it was the one in Cerritos, but turns out it was West Covina)
Also turns out that a month later another eco-terrorist group in New Mexico trageted Hummers but all they did was glue phamplets to the windows...

Tax write off. If you own a business and purchase a vehicle weighing more than 6,000 pounds, you can deduct the percentage of business use (up to $100k), instead of depreciating it.

hmmmm, i would just get a 1 ton pickup instead. It looks nicer and more importantly, it actually works. And you look like less of a retard.

Good point tho.

Nice kill bro.................I had a chance to run one of those recently too on I-75...............from about 60-120, I got him by about 3 car-lengths

They're pretty respectable for such a HUGE SUV.......but then again, Twin hair dryers and 450 HP stock.......

It sure does look like a beefy safe vehicle. I just recently saw the results of a H2 and F250 head on collision... The F250 destroyed the H2. They may look big and tough, but after seeing how the truck went right through that thing, it seems like it's not as rugged as the original hummer. The hood/front end on those H2's are actually pretty flimsy if you open them up. In Colorado it seems like all the professional sports players are the only ones buying them.
