H2 - Safety Design
My husband recently hit a tree and totalled our $71,000 05 H2. How do you total a HUMMER? The H2 front end impact design shifted the "energy" absorbed by the accident under the vehicle instead of into the passenger seating area. Thus, damaging the frame, transfer case, rear end housing, etc. He walked away with only a seatbelt bruise. We are convinced this vehicle saved his life and can't wait to buy another!
Used Hummer
I just bought a well taken care of Hummer H2. I wish I would have driven one sooner. These vehicles are fantastic. Well made, commanding, wide footprint, sure footed. Rides very well.

Love my Hummer
I have owned my H2 for 3 yrs and it gets roughly the same gas mileage that my 2005 Chevy Tahoe gets (14 in town and 18 hwy). I don't know what the big deal is over the gas mileage (I have been researching the new Jeep Unlimited and it only gets marginally better gas mileage than the H2 [1 or 2 mpg] and for the style and luxury I'll keep my H2. No mechanical probs to speak of. Excellent ride - better than any other SUV. Turning radius is great. Bottom line is go drive one for yourself. Don't let others talk you out of it before you look at it. My husband thought he would hate it until he drove it. Needless to say, we took it home that day! Well worth the price for the SUV and gas.
The hummer
The second best off road suv besides the h1 there is no place this suv cant go but has the worst fuel econmy of any suv
Favorite vehicle
Had my H2 for 10 years and still love driving it everyday.

Mudding
I like the feel of secureness. Being able to go over and trhough things with no problem. I enjoy going mudding. It handles so well. Very comfortable to travel in. I have put over 20,000 miles in less than 6 months. Its worth it
Hummer H2
The Best SUV out there. People need to top comparing the gas mileage to a car thats ¼ of its size! I drive it really hard and get about 9 mpg in the city when driving lightly you get about 13 mpg. On Highway at speeds of 85 mph I get about 10 and speeds around 65 mph I get about 14 mpg. It's how fast you take off is where the gas goes.
hummer
We live in Iowa, we've had about 18 inches of snow so far this year and I don't have to worry about getting around, I can drive any where and feel 100% safe. The only regret I have so far is there is no complete third row seat offered. Otherwise am completely happy.
Best Automobile I have ever owned!!!
I have owned my H-2 for over one year now. I have traveled over 26,000 miles both on highway, streets and off road. The gas mileage isn't the best but I do seem to get about 15 mpg on the highway and get about 11 mpg in town which was the same as my old F-150. I have also traveled from florida to Alaska where I am working now. The trip was very plesant due to my H-2s ride and comfort.
Ryan's Ride
Overall quality is excellent, I knew the mileage was poor before I bought it, and I would buy it again. Rides very nice. Great power. The only thing I would change is to have a little leg room in the back seat.
Best Vehicle I have ever owned!
I've owned a great number of cars and trucks over the years, but this one beats them all hands down. First of all is the interior room. I am a 6'5" driver and I swear I could wear a cowboy hat while driving! I have put 45,000 miles on my H2 in two years. Driving from Oregon to Las Vegas and back between homes several times a year, I can drive straight through and still arrive in comfort. Other than changing the oil (synthetic for me!!) I have never touched this vehicle or had problems. I'll be driving an H2 as long as they keep building them. If they stop, I'd go buy two or three tomorrow just to insure I have one for life!!!
Lucky day
One day i was out with my family in my Escalade and i saw a silver hummer for sale and i was just hooked to it i went around the block and tried to forget about it but my wife kept telling me just to get a test drive if i like it i would buy it and i did and i got it for about $50,000 but its worth it i bought it with 35,000 miles 2005 it was brand new at the time and it only has 50,000 miles now and its the greatest suv i have ever bought !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hummerlicious2
This truck has been fantastic! The pwer and quality are fantastic! Gas milage is better then reported! I'm getting 13.5 Miles to the gal. City driving. All in all i'm very happy with this purchase!
DJA
This is the second one we have owned. We have a large piece of property with some horrible roads. My wife loves the vehicle and wouldn't want anything else. It is very durable and I feel safer with her in it. It does get horrible mileage and is as aerodynamic as a box which makes it hard to keep the wind shield clean. Other than the mileage, we are thrilled with the vehicle and the way it handles.
you can't beat a bowtie for life
my H2 has been a very reliable truck Chevy has always made a good product i own a 1961 impala c/30 crewcab buick 225 century 1955 Chevy great ride for the money i paid for my truck she will pass everything but a service station 60 to 82 buck to fill her up depending on grade of gas up grade to green stuff pads stops better an k/N air filter corsos exhaust. i only use Mobil 1 full synthetic oil and any thing Lucas oil makes to keep her on the road tires are very expensive the rear end floats on the truck like it skips just kerp it full of Lucas gear oil .my dad died an left me a 95 ford F150 the worst damm truck i ever owned money pit.i world rather walk an am parsley handicap Chevrolet number 1 always

Truth about Hummer
Awesome truck!!!! Gets lots of attention, you must feel comfortable driving large vehicles to drive this daily. Terrible gas mileage, but the ride and power make up for it.
No Title
I love my H2. I would not buy any other SUV (maybe an H3). It goes anywhere I want to go. And it has power and torque to spare.
Hum to Hummer
No regrets into leasing this hummer once in a life time opportunity. Now I can always say I owned a hummer.
Great Car and Fun = HUMMER
I just bought this car a few months ago, and believe me it is for real like nothing else. It is a car that it will take you anywhere, from a dinner in a fine restaurant to the mountains. The perfect partner for any adventure.
Hummer H2
Great to drive. Awesome turn radius. Smooth suspension (equipped with air suspension), full time 4X4 and a very comfortable and roomy interior. Very happy with my purchase.
excellent truck
best built gm product ever had. drives like a small car and has guts and style. no rattles or weird noises or any service issues after 10000 miles (so far)
Who Would Think?
We never thought that this vehicle would satisfy so many of our needs. We just returned from a 1800 mile trip through some of the worst weather and traffic conditions and our Hummer H2 took us to NY and back in comfort and style. Not to mention how safe we felt. Other cars seem to stay away and those big rigs give respect. We cruised at 70 to 80 MPH and averaged 13.7 MPG. In the ad they say "Like nothing Else" - it's hard to explain but you get the feeling like you're Capt. Kirk commanding the Star Ship Enterprise. It's wonderful! If you need one vehicle to do everything, the H2 is it. We drove it for over 30 hours roundtrip and felt refreshed when we arrived. I would buy this H2 again.
Best SUV Ever - Can't ask for much more!
My husband and I bought this car a year ago right before we found out I was pregnant. This car is great for hauling a child around, plenty of room for a stroller, the DVD's that the H2 has as an upgrade is going to come in handing in a couple months and it feels safe when you drive. I have no complaints. Great family automobile.
Gotta have one
What an awesome vehicle. This is my 2nd H2. The power is great, the ride is comfortable even on the long drives. The only item I wish the 2005 model would come with is adjustable pedals. You can buy after market exhaust, airfilter and a chip to boost the HP, but hold on to your hat, it will move. People who complain about gas mileage, shouldn't own one then. I average 11-12 per gallon.
Humming along
Perhaps the best SUV I have ever owned, can really go just about anywhere. Maintenance and repairs are costly, given the thievery rampant in the dealer/manufacturer scheme of hourly bilking. Gas mileage is the same as my Suburban. Love the car!
2005 H-2 SUT
I love my h-2 sut. I use it on and off road here in Arizona. Family of 5 we have plenty of room. The kids enjoy the dvd system and the large sun roof. I like the Bose sound system and nav and just driving it. The sut can go places that most people would not even try. The h-2 has 50,000 miles on it with no problem. I added 20'' wheels and all terrain tries and new shocks, exhaust. Avg fuel 12 city highway and running at 70-75.
Give this Hummer a 10!
Stand out design, extremely comfortable driving experience, go anywhere off road performance and not one issue... my experience has been a 10!!
005 Hummer H2
Love it. Drives excellent, Attention Getter. You either love it or Hate...and the Tree Huggers Hate it., of course. I wave when they go by.
Best 4WD I have ever owned!
Outstanding vehicle!I have owed many 4WD's but this one is by far the best! Please see improvement section for only flaw known to date. GM made an outstanding decision to acquire the Hummer brand; I most constantly educate non-owners that it is not a rehacked Suburban. I hope to acquire an H1 to keep it company!
Boxy But Sexy
Overall this vehicle has met my expectations. Negatives-- It could use more front seat leg room and it would be nice if the 2nd row seats reclined. Interior jack location could have been thought out better. Windshield leaked from poor installation at factory and both front seat height adjustment switches have gone out. Positives--This vehicle will perform as advertised. It handles/performs like a sports car and almost nothing short of water submersion will stop it. If you have to get the "heck out of dodge" this is the vehicle. Just fill up the tank at every opportunity. Would definitely buy again.
Best all aroun Suv
I am very happy with this vehicle. Have driven other Suv's Cadillac Escalade etc. and feel with the hummer you get more bang for the buck. Love the roomy interior and although it is a large car, I don't feel I have to many problems parking. Fuel is a draw back but the Cadillac escalade only gets an average 13.9 and runs on premium I am getting 11.00 and use regular. Except for fuel mileage I absolutely love this vehicle.
Hummer Class
The Hummer is not for everyone. If you are worried about gas prices, you do not need one or can afford one. Hummer is for those that want attitude in a vehicle. This is not your Dad's vehicle. When you own a Hummer, you control the road, not vice versa. Drive with authority. This is the most exciting vehicle on the road today. Make sure to get out of the way.
H 2
This is the best suv that i have ever owned. I have driven suv's for about fifteen years. It has an awesome presence and stance. It is well recognized in public. It is very comfortable and the sound system is awesome. Good job gm! The power is excellent and the cabin is very quiet.
LOVE MY HUMMER H2
Great truck, excellent ride quality, handling and acceleration for such a heavy vehicle. Owned many cars and this one beats them all, even a Ranger Rover 4.6 HSE. Nice finish, leather interior and climate control system. On Star is a nice feature too. 3rd row seat gives seating for 6 or fold them down and there's tons of cargo space.
All that & then some....
I wanted this truck since the minute I saw it, but the new color "Stealth Grey" sold it! It is an amazing truck, great interior/exterior, I got all the bells and whistles added from the factory, so let's just say it turns some heads, especially from other Hummer owners! It drives great, a bit hard to park (considering I'm a woman), but it is all that and then some!
Nothing else like it.
My H2 is fun to drive. Fuel is obviously a killer--but I can't believe that I would ever get tired of driving my H2. It's a unique vehicle.
H2 Hummer
The truck is better than I expected. The fuel milage is a small drawback price to pay, for driving this machine.
Happy with my Hummer
I am retired and live in a beach resort area and drive my Hummer only on day trips or weekend outings. It is a comfortable driving vechicle. I like the durability and feel very safe traveling in heavy traffic or congested areas. Yhe vechicle has a smooth almost gliding feeling on the highway. For the large size of the vechicle the gas mileage is good. It definately gets a lot of attention on the highway
Big Safe Children Transporter
I have 4 sons (6,10,12,14), Needless to say we carry lots of STUFF .... baseball, band equipment and lots of friends. The gas mileage leaves something to be desired but for the type of driving I do (short trips) It's really not that painful. I fill up about every two weeks. I love my H2 and it makes me feel very safe carrying my precious cargo!
ABSOLUTLY Like Nothing Esle
The best thing about the H2 is the wonderful feeling you get not only driving it but starring at it when it sits in front of your house. Now I have had little things that I have had to take to the dealership to have fixed, but the absolute joy of having one overcomes the minor issues
My HUMMER
My purchase of my HUMMER H2 was the best vehclie i have ever bought because of the stylist exterior and interior.This was the only vehcile that i had that people would actaully stop to look at and the handling and preformance is just excellent.
2005 H2
If you are looking for a vehicle that gets attention this is the one. If you are looking for something practical, go buy a Denali. I had a 2003 Denali XL before, got tired of it and traded for a 2005 H2. I like the way it handles, but the power and ride is not as good as the Denali. Also, it has limited cargo room and you loose a lot of storage space in the vehicle. A few other annoying items include the nav screen that point toward the passenger, no six disc changer, and a bouncy ride. I probably will go back to a 2007 Denali XL as soon as they come out.
sweet!
Very well thought out and executed. Only downside is towing on the highway. Not enough power to stay with traffic even pulling a small box trailer with a Harley in it.
2004 HUMMER
Love it. And yes it is owned by a woman. Gets lots of looks and have only had it in the snow. Looking forward to Taking it on the beaches of the Outer Banks of NC to try it in the sand. Traded a 4Runner in on it which only got 17 miles per gallon so 14 for all this SUVis not bad. Feel very safe in it on all roads and drive it daily
Best Car Ever
cool car buy it
Fun to drive vehicle
The 2005 hummer h2 is a very impressive, surprisingly smooth ,fun driving, truck. When it comes to fuel usage the rating is a little lower,but considering the size of the vehicle and the constant 4-wheel drive you know what to expect before purchasing this particular truck.
Terrific Hummer H2
Tree Huggers and wimps need not apply!! Arnold and I love the Hummer H2 - except for the gas mileage. If what you are looking for is a comfortable SUV for all types of terrain the H2 is unbeatable. If you have to ask about gas mileage, don't buy one.
The Best Truck I Have Owned
This truck is awesome to drive, a real head turner. Great performance. Very comfortable to drive/ride. Doesnt feel as big as it looks when you drive it. The problems I have had: a bolt fell out of the front suspension, dealership said a non-locking nut was used by mistake. One small area of paint peeling off of the top. They do need to offer back up sensors, because visibility is bad out of the back, especially with the rear tire rack.
Wonderful!
The New HUMMER H2 is the most wonderful SUV on Earth (i think so). It is so comfortable. Easy to drive. I have a Black One. LUX Series. Top lights.
Best vehicle ever
This is a fun head turning vehicle with very few flaws. Handles great, looks great, and is safe to drive
