2004 HUMMER H2 Review
Summary
What Edmunds.com says
Despite its more civilized design, the 2004 Hummer H2 still maintains the head-turning looks and unstoppable off-road prowess that made the original famous.
Pros
Distinctive styling, unmatched off-road capability, stout drivetrain.
Cons
Feels massive, poor visibility, some cheap interior materials, limited cargo room, alarming fuel consumption.
What's New for 2004
New rubber floor mats and an optional integrated CD player/navigation system are the only changes to the 2004 Hummer H2 this year.

2004 HUMMER H2 Lux Series 4WD 4dr SUV (6.0L 8cyl 4A)
Review
I have owned so called 4x4s before. This is the absolute best on and off road vehicle ever. This truck drives like a Cadillac on road and a tank off road. I have 60,000 miles and just now replaced the tires and windshield wipers. This is the ultimate driving machine. I average 13.5 miles per gallon. GREAT TRUCK
Favorite Features
Off road and on road handling. Wonderful creature comforts.
Suggested Improvements
More interior luxury appointments.

Review
Drives great and handles like a charm. I loved this car up until it hit 95,000 miles, then it became a money pit and the market is so upside down (not GM's fault) that it's hard to make sense what to do with it. It treated me well with no breakdowns for 3 years, then the instrument gauges quit one by one, the water pump went out, the a/c recirculation does not work well, the electric mirrors quit, the windshield gasket vibrates above 60 MPH. Repairs on high mileage cars are expected but it seems like everything on the H2 costs between $500-$1000 to get fixed. Probably won;t spend $65,000 on another Hummer. They are really worth about $50,000 at most fully packed with all the good stuff.
Favorite Features
Styling and go anywhere ability.
Suggested Improvements
The plastic parts of the interior are painted instead of a solid color. The paint wears off and then it's just ugly! My running loights had to be sealed because they leaked with heavy rain. If GM built a better H2, they would sell them to repeat customers regardless of market conditions.

Review
Love to drive my HUMMER when it is not in the shop. All repairs have been minor fixes, but major irritations. I am now on my fifth TV/DVD replacement! Numerous problems with 12 volt outlets, and other electrical type problems. This vehicle has been in the shop more than 15 times and to top it off the entertainment system went out again and I am told that this model is no longer made and cannot be replaced. Now after 3 "repairs" it still only works 2-3 weeks after each repair.
Favorite Features
Body style, handling, heated seats
Suggested Improvements
Better quality interior finishes. Less plastic

Review
I finally found something I like to drive.Ii live in cleveland,ohio. and the roads are tore up. Also we have some heavy snow falls too. Driving the Hummer H2 on the highway is a joy. It has plenty of power and it rides very smoothly.
Favorite Features
The Bose stereo system is really nice. I like the big tires and the overall feel of the truck.

Review
Owning an H2 is great. Everyone notices it and I've never been stuck or even skidded in the snow. The only issue is its size. Sometimes its hard to park or find a lot big enough in downtown urban areas.
Favorite Features
4 wheel drive, great a/c excellent power and convenient power adapters
Suggested Improvements
Better 3rd row seating.
