Ok Brian......


And....Just how long have you been sitting on that little tidbit.

You have no idea...
Yeah...just sit back listen to everyone speculate, bitch and wish.......Me whining about the DAS hummer display.......Makes sense now....

Did you know you made Jalopnik ?

Looks like the best laid plans of mice and men are plans easily laid low by a HummerGuy.
The site all about the vehicular BJ is reporting via a standard embargo break that the 2008 Hummer H2
Blah...blah and blah.......

I guess they didnt think your news flash was sanctioned or something.

So what's next up for discussion:

Return of the H1
H2 Alpha
H3 SUT
H3T
H4

??????????

Interesting!!!! I'm not sure about the interior yet??? I'll have to see more pics!! Don't really like the steering wheel!

I'm with you on this one Bob, I don't like it one bit. The SW like you said .. yuck, the square vents/dash .. that's just gawd awful in my opinion ... I think that was a major step in the wrong direction .. think it took away from the RUGGED good looks I personally care for ..
Yeah Zyne, Looks more like my wife's Escalade!!![:@]

Saw that...and Edmunds...and Autoblog...some have revised their original posts, though - at least I still have a mention on Autoblog (no link though - punks!). And as it turns out, it really wasn't sanctioned, which I wasn't aware of at the time....after a conversation withThe Mother Ship (AKA Detroit)all is fine <wipes brow> shew!...

Glad to hear everything is fine.

That "Embargo Break" thing had me sort of worried.

And again Brian , thanks for the info.

BTW: I'd be curious to see how much your hit count has increasedthe past 6 months......

Awesome link, thanks for the info

i don't know if i prefer the photos of the new interior to the old or not, i don't think i do. the H2s interior just works as-is, and if i leave a window down and hit a mud hole it cleans up easily. i like the piping, i sort of like the brown leather, i love the analog clock, and they didn't fck up the shifter area, which is sweet. So all in all, its nicer, but... does it look germane and sedate and corporationy and like every escalade/benz/blah/blah SUv interior instead of like a hummers interior?

The H3 Alpha should have gotten the bigger engine AND 35's and a front locker, and the axles and shafts from a 2-ton truck. That would be fun.

I hope the new H2 has cooled seats

I think you're right -- and I like it. I remember when the H2s first came out and everyone was up in arms since it was billed as a 'luxury' vehicle and didn't want a lot of the extra features -- they said it was getting away from the Hummer's (H1) roots...I think the H2 is a breed of its own which offers a nice luxury interior that CAN be compared to an escalade or benz, but still have incredible off-road ability right off the factory line...overall, it'll be faster, more luxurious, without sacrificing any off-road ability -- I want one.

The center dash vents and clock look almost like the set-up in our new Chrysler. I prefer the more masculine looking set-up in our current H2 version, but I do like the new 6-speed tranny idea.[sm=youreright.gif]
