This will be my third and final try to sell my H2 before leaving for the Bay Area at the end of Oct.  If nobody wants it for $10,500 (or a close offer), I'll just drive it out to the west coast towing my Honda Accord behind it, and put it for sale on the street once I get out there. I've seen an H2 with a flood/salvage title sell for $17,500 recently on eBay, and another one that it seemed to me wasn't as "desirable" as mine go for $12,500; so, from this and others that have recently sold, I must infer that I'm simply in the wrong area--probably nobody around here has the actual cash to buy the vehicle outright (except dealers, who've offered me up to $8500. for it, and of course then they'd turn it--and finance the vehicle, obviously, which I can't do--to somebody who would only look at the weekly, or bi-weekly, payments, and not the total amount they'd be paying for the vehicle in the end. Hell, I did the same thing when I bought it new: I financed it, because I couldn't afford a $59,600 vehicle outright. That's how everybody but the super-rich buy things in this (now) benighted country, isn't it? Ah well, if I start in on that I'll never get the car listed. . . . This is a good deal for somebody who actually has the cash to buy it outright; and if nobody does here in the vicinity of The TAW (that's Wichita to the non-cognoscenti--which group you've now joined by default by reading this missive, poor soul. . . .), well, as Popeye (or one of his minions) once said, "Them's the breaks, homes." Below is my original listing: nothing has changed since I first put it up on eBay last month.


I bought this H2 Hummer new in Feb. 2003, and have driven it continuously to date. The vehicle has been maintained by the dealership in Tucson, AZ, until last Dec., at which time I moved to Wichita, Kansas, which is where the vehicle is now. I "religiously" maintained the vehicle (you see, it's not a car, but I can't call it a "truck," either, at least in my own mind, so I'll continue to call it a "vehicle") at the Royal Automotive dealership in Tucson, having the oil changed every 3,000 miles, and, as recommended, everything changed every 30,000 miles. During its lifetime, the following has been done:
  at 118,000 miles, new AC compressor
new two-stage air compressor in 2006 (as I recall, when the original one started cycling continuously due probably to an internal short; the original air compressor was a one-stage
device; they went to a two-stage type compressor in 2005)
at 171,000 miles, completely rebuilt transmission
  radiator replaced in 2008
  both front hubs have been replaced
  both air-shocks have been replaced

  extras: Warn winch and Hummer luggage carrier; also truck shields (never used, still on original roll to be cut out so they will fit various places on the outside of the vehicle to prevent scratches while traveling off-road--which I have never done, by the way!)

Although the vehicle is "high mileage," practically all the miles are highway miles, and it is in very good shape.

What is "wrong" with it: two guages don't work (oil pressure and battery charging; the two least important ones, in my opinion, and the entire instrument panel has to be replaced at one fell swoop, so I've never done that; all the other guages have worked fine for the lifetime of the vehicle); the passenger side rear door window has to have the regulator replaced (this enrages me, because both rear-door window regulators are obviously of the "planned obsolescence" variety, and both have already been replaced, once, now I have to replace the passenger side one again; the front windows, which do get put up and down frequently, have never failed, so, to me, anyway, this is obviously just another MBA-corporate-asshole-planned made-to-fail-to-get-the-customer-to-bring-the-vehicle-back-into-the-dealership thingys, which frankly, I've had more than enough of in my 63 years on this planet--how about you?), which I will probably do myself before the vehicle is sold; the final thing is that only part of the six-way seat switch functions (movement front to back is okay, and so is putting the back of the seat at different angles, as is the "lumbar thingy" for the small of your back, but the seat will not move up and down vertically at present--I may fix this, too, before selling the vehicle). 
All in all, this is a solid, driving vehicle that I don't think anything major will go wrong on again, as I've fixed pretty much everything that could go wrong over the years; the tires are good (two are practically new, purchased in 2012), the AC blows cold, the CD with 9-speaker Bose system is the best stereo I've ever owned, etc.
Call me for more particulars.

Canadian man saves four kids with Hummer [w/video]

Sat, 08 Sep 2012

A quick-thinking driver in Canada put his own life on the line last month when he drove his Hummer H3 in front of a distracted driver to save four children. Darrell Krushelnicki, 46, of Taber, Alberta, saw a car about to speed through an intersection. Four kids, whose ages ranged from three to 16 years old, were in the in the crosswalk, so Krushelnicki pulled his truck in front of a silver Pontiac Pursuit (known as the Pontiac G5 in the U.S.) to prevent them from being hit.
The identity of the other driver is unknown, but the news report says the 23-year-old male was talking on his cell phone while traveling around 80 kilometers per hour (close to 50 miles per hour) in a 30 kph speed zone (less than 20 mph). Thankfully, nobody was hurt, and while there's no word as to whether the distracted driver was ticketed, police say that they're recommending Krushelnicki for an award.

AM General's new CEO has strong military roots

Fri, Dec 11 2015

AM General has a new president and chief executive officer. Current CEO Charlie Hall is retiring from the company. In his place, the defense and automotive manufacturer has named industry veteran Andy Hove. Though primarily a defense contractor, AM General has produced a number of civilian vehicles as well. The company is perhaps best known for the Hummer (or Humvee in military parlance) and continued producing both the original H1 and the subsequent H2 after selling the brand to General Motors. Even after GM shut down the brand, AM General continued producing Humvees for military use and as a civilian kit. The company is also behind Mobility Ventures, which produces purpose-built wheelchair-accessible vehicles, assembles the R-Class for Mercedes-Benz, and has been linked to potential commercial van and pickup truck assembly for GM as well. Based in South Bend, IN, AM General shares its roots with the Jeep brand. It was split off from American Motors Corporation after the latter was bought by Renault and then by Chrysler. Today it's owned by New York-based investment firms Renco Group and MacAndrews & Forbes. A former Army officer, Hove arrives at the company with considerable experience in the defense industry, particularly in vehicle manufacturing. He has previously served as president of HDT Global and before that of Oshkosh Defense. Prior to that he headed up the Bradley tank program for BAE Systems, where he increased sales from $250 million to $2 billion within five years. His departing predecessor Charlie Hall was named CEO in 2011, assuming day-to-day responsibility for the company's operations from the suitably named chairman James Armour.

Hove brings to AM General a track record of excellence at a diverse array of defense and commercial companies in the United States and around the world. Hove most recently served as the President and CEO of HDT Global where he rapidly proved the quality of his leadership in helping transform the company.

GMC Hummer EV infotainment built with Unreal Engine used by 'Fortnite' and 'Rocket League'

Wed, Oct 7 2020

We're only a couple weeks away from the reveal of the GMC Hummer EV truck and SUV. And we're expecting a lot of boasting about impressive capability and unique features. What we weren't expecting was for its infotainment system to be built on a video game engine. That's the news that has come out of Epic Games, creators of Unreal Engine, the basis of the Hummer's infotainment system. If you've been an avid video gamer anytime in the last 20 years, Unreal Engine should be recognizable. The first version of it powered Epic's "Unreal" and "Unreal Tournament" games, and more recent versions power multiplayer hits such as Epic's "Fortnite" and Psyonix's "Rocket League." The engine has been licensed out to countless other game developers for titles by both indie developers and large game companies. But its use in the GMC Hummer will be the first time it has powered a production car's infotainment system. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Epic didn't say which version of Unreal Engine is being used in the Hummer. Presumably it's a version of Unreal Engine 4, since Unreal Engine 5 hasn't been released yet. Also, while Epic released a trailer announcing the partnership and showcasing Unreal's 3D rendering and menu developing tools, it doesn't give us a peak at what the infotainment and instruments of the Hummer will look like. The company does tout fast boot-up times, powerful graphics, and over-the-air updates as useful features included with Unreal. But for a clear look at the final product, we'll have to wait for the October 20 reveal. Related Video:
