Howdy, New Member Here
Hello Everyone!!
New member on this forum but not new to forums per se, since I belong to a hand full of them. I googled around tonight trying to find a good Hummer forum to join, after lurking in a handful of sites tonite, I decided after reading the many posts from members here that this forum looks like where I belong.
. I hope to gather info from your many posts, and perhaps, in a small way, I might be able to contribute information in some small way regarding our great vehicles. I am a H2 owner, I bought my yellow H2 wayback in late 03, thats what I still own 
. Back then I bought the one with what they called, the Sports Package, which I dearly love and was glad that I paid the extra price, for many reasons. I also purchased a few extra options like the newer light rack (at the time)and of course an Air Horn, a H2 without an Air Horn is just "incomplete" IMHO. Why I have not joined a forum like this over all these years is a question I am still asking myself, especially after participating on 2 Hummer Happenings down here in South Florida and meeting GREAT people. Never the less, I am here now and hope to be a member that contributes and informs fellow members in some small way. Since I have had my H2 3+ years, and since I thinkI have experienced some minor problems, some that I didn't know existed since my dealer just "fixed" them & told me afterwards goes to show that some problems are just not seen or felt.
Another reason I decided to join a forum like this is really simple, the warranty on my baby is over. I have decided NOT to purchase any type of extended warranties (in fact none were offered) butI know they exist. Since my monster truck is virtually indestructable, my wife & I decided to start to wing it. All the service done to my H2 to date has been done by my great dealer down here under warranty, any future problems will befixed by us at the dealer on a case by case basis, safety will be TOP priority obviously. If all goes well, I expect this truck to run on forever--with proper maintenance--Which we will continue to do--I am even considering doing some routine work on it myself, like oil changes, filters etc etc--we don't need a jack, so I will probably enjoy rolling around the floor for a bit and get some grease & oil back onto my hands--Many items have been replaced/repaired on my H2, as I see, or read these posts I will post info regarding them, especially items that ARE not covered under warranty--Which by the way can be veeerrryyy expensive. As an example, the 3 wipers on a H2 cost me over $135.00--OUCH, guess what, I will replace them in the future--Spark plugs, naw I won't tell ya now, perhaps laters--[sm=bangbang.gif]AnywaysI am looking forward to posting here and hopefully contribute in a small way. Have a GREAT day!! Regards. PSon't have a recent picture on hand, however many exists on my HD, will have to find one where I look the skinniest--[sm=lol.gif]Or make new ones after I detail my yellow baby since it is due and she's real dirty--

Thanks for the warm welcome members, it's appreciated. I was expecting those smileys when I saw them in the group LOL, I tried to upload 5 pictures but it keeps failing on this post. What size do the pictures have to be or what size? It says 500kb, even those that size is failing, they are 1600X1200, is that why you think? I will make them smaller and try again--again thanks for your warm welcome--Gimme a few minutes to resize 5 of these pics, BRB--
