I felt a little disheartened when Doug Demuro bashed this vehicle. Glad to see a proper review of this rig for what it was built to do, which doesn't include mall crawling. Thanks and Cheers guys!
The H2 is a great truck. Tons of room, rides smooth, and is capable. I was out in Arizona and did a Hummer tour of a canyon. It was the experience that got me into offroading. The thing went places a lot of the people who diss it would never try.
Way underrated, I had a 2008 H2 SUT with Off-Road package, color black with Sedona red interior, changed the tires from 35 to 37 inch, that's all I changed. Over a timespan of 8 years and 187.000 miles I did 90% of the trails in Moab; we enjoyed going 3 times per year. We travelled all over the US in luxury and comfort with our H2 and never had any problems. An incredible vehicle and American Icon. Btw. The performance off-road was better than my H1. In my life I had many vehicles, hence, the H2 will always be my most memorable.
I have a 2006 H2 and cpl of Jeeps ... My Hummer has never left me stranded up here in northern 🇨🇦 where I live..never had any major engine or transmission work done(or minor) ..the 6.0 L Vortex is a very dependable engine ... I’ve only needed to replace my brake pads once so far... Not sure why it’s gets a bad rap about fuel when my Jeeps especially the 3.7 V6 is a surprising little pig on fuel..and compared to a few power wagons my buddies own I’m getting about the same gas mileage as them... I will never get rid of my Hummer .. it doesn’t owe me a dime... Everything still works from the air ride & huge factory dual compressor to all the electronics & sunroof and Bose system .. every switch and light and option still work like the day I bought it back in 2006 The paint is still all original no body rust anywhere... Cheers from HudsonBay 🇨🇦
DrScopeify : the main difference between the hummer and the GX would be that the Land Cruiser will outlive two or three of these hummers, also outperform on and offroad, it also has waay nicer interior and materials all around, it also has one of the best resale values of any vehicle, AND (subjectively) looks way better. That said, I 'm not saying that the hummer is "the most hated" truck, but it definitely is not in the same league as a Land Cruiser.
+Frank White Well that's your opinion. I would rely on a 6.0 over Toyota's pig 5.7 any day. Even Ford and Mopar guys don't bash the 6.0. As for Toyotas ridiculously overpriced oversized 4Runner being nicer when it comes to luxury, well yeah, that was kind of the point. People didn't buy those to go off road or pull weight like they do these. The old ones may have been.great of road. but the early to mid 2000 models, no way. Also, that era of the Land Cruiser doesn't seem to exist in my part of the country anymore. And then when they did exist, only brat soccer moms had them anyway. Certainly a lot more Hummers running around on the streets even to this day than any of those ridiculously overpriced SUVs. Not that the H2 wasn't overpriced as well. It was different though, and people definitely noticed them. I think if you really want to go off-road in a Toyota you should just stick to the Tacoma...and unfortunately the Colorado has did a good job of making those look bad. Even the queens at consumer reports turned their back on the Tacoma.
You obviously know nothing on the topic, so I would advice to take a drive in both then come talk again. And I'm not just talking outperform, I'm actually talking murder.
Holy crap why??? They screwed it up hugely the first time there is no way anyone can make it less than the disaster it is and still look like a (poc) H2
I don't know if you've noticed this, or if you have, if you've tried it, but GM designed a quasi-locking front differential, according to their literature. No - it is not mechanical, like the rear, but the Owner's Manual says (something to the effect), that foot-braking while climbing obstacles that lift a tire off the ground will force the ABS-system to stop the air-bound wheel, thereby transferring power to the wheel on the ground, that has traction. So - when you climb over terrain where a tire becomes airborne, if you carefully footbrake, the brake caliper on the high tire will transfer the power down the axle/differential, and the tire on the ground will then pull the truck along. I don't think I've seen you guys do that in this rig. It works in mine, probably similarly to many other vehicles.
How often does one actually get stuck in hills ? Come to Finland or Russia, try the tundra on a snowy winter day, or even better, on a wet, sucking, muddy day..... That's the test !
This clears the Air after the Doug DeMuro video, even the hood handles are practical, although not designed to be air dropped like the original H1, it is very effective as a handle to lift the hood
All of the H2's off-road clearance specs were equal to or better than the H1's! Took mine on part of the tank course at Ft. Bragg, NC and it held its own.
thank you, thank you, thank you. I get so much shit for my hummer you have no idea. This is what I got it for and I love it! I have a lift on it and my tires are huge but it has never left me stranded or stuck anywhere so far. I go to Moab often xxx
The main ingredient it's lacking is articulation and a very vulnerable fuel tank. The Hummer did a lot better than I expected. I remember when that was the truck everyone wanted! Great video.
It’s really nice to see someone giving the h2 it’s kudos. I owned and h1 and have been out with many h2s over the years and these trucks are super capable.
You are so correct, any truck with that weight will have similar consumption. Reliability was tops on mine, never had a problem with 187.000 miles on the teller.
Let's face it though the transmission is not great by today's standards. What I mean is that with basically every truck now coming with a 6 speed automatic the 4 speed from '03 - '07 really shows its age.
It's truly garbage. Breaks all the time, the MPG is a joke, it's mediocre at best off-road, and the interior looks like it was forced into it with a pick axe and a shovel. If you want "a real" Hummer, get the H1.
Great video. These trucks are so much fun to drive! From 2003 to 2006 we’ve had three H2’s and two H3’s. I’m personally a huge H2 fan but don’t like the H3. Still have one 2006 H2 running strong with over 300k miles on the original motor. The first set of breaks lasted over 200k.
Guys you're great! I've been following you since your beginnings and I have to say that I really enjoy and love your work and your adventures. I really love the fact of a father and son getting together as a team as well as the other guys that I can see that instead of an institution, you're a family. God bless you my friends. Keep up the wonderful job!
I don't know why people even hate this tracks. It looks so nice especially yours guys the color, wheels, everything looks really nice. I would love to have one for my family.
Your Hummer H2 videos inspired me to go and buy an H2. I love my rig and it does better than expected off-road as well. Thanks for the great reviews and congrats to Andre becoming the new owner! It's definitely a passion worth sharing.
I actually rented one from Hertz back when they were all the rage. I had flown into St Louis to see a friend and we got to talking about taking a trip out west. He had never been west of the Mississippi River more than 100 miles which was weird since his house was a mile from the river. We each had a couple weeks off of work so the next thing you know I was at the STL airport Hertz renting an H2. I brought it back to his house and proceeded to remove the running boards and disabling the gps tracking system. Moab or bust! Having a barely street legal 1st gen Toyota pickup crawler at home with front locker, rear spool, 5:1 low range, propane kit, 35” MTRs I was prepared to be underwhelmed. To my amazement it was very capable. I was even one of the last people to do the original Lions Back before it was closed for good. The H2 was as at home in Moab as it was on the streets of Aspen and Telluride. My only complaint was lack of power on the interstate when bucking 40-50mph headwinds. I think it had the 5.3 liter.
I was rolling down a dark road when a yellow H2 ripped by me. I searched H2 and came upon this vid. Glad the TFL boys came through. Imagine what this rig would do if equipped with front lockers? Would be sick!
I want one now... your videos have won me over. I've had 2 Chevy trucks in the past (loved them) and have wanted an overlanding rig for a while now. I think this would be a super fun weekender.
I have a corvette with less than 30,000 miles on it and I just got an H2 with 163,000 miles on it. It looks very similar to this one in the video and I like driving this big thing even more than my Vette
Love the direction of the channel. And its satisfying seeing your channel grow little by little. It takes massive commitment and willpower to build a channel like this. By the way, good video!
I was never a Hummer fan but you guys have totally given me a new look on them after seeing these videos. I'm so glad that Andre decided to buy this and it will still be in the TFL family. I'm still bummed at the loss of the Raptor. (Will there be H2 rescues in the future?) Now...... please do more videos with the Scout.
I love the hummer lineup. I feel if gmc brought it back today, they would sell better given gas is cheaper, flex fuel is more common and they make very fuel efficient v8s now.
That truck would have been better with a few more inches on it. It would have been the "ultimate off road" machine. Seriously, you don't need a fancy awd system. A basic awd with locking diff and ground clearance can you out of anything you tackle.
I love these Moab videos! I'm with Roman, it's one of my favorite places to be. I've been there twice, the 2nd time 3 weeks ago. I took a day off rom mountainbking and ran Fins last year in a rented JK Rubi, it was a blast! This year I was not so lucky, busted myself up pretty good mountainbiking before I had a chance to get a Jeep. I'll heal, and I'll be back next year! (I did get a ride in a Jeep though, 2 girls in a JKU were nice enough to drive me into town and to the ER from way up the mountain on Sand Flats Rd)
When you guys posted that little teaser last week with the surprise buyer, he was my first thought. You could tell he loved it from the beginning. Cool seeing them off road.
Ha ha I agree Doug is a dumbass for his public slam on the h2 . These suvs are way better than they ever get credit for. What kills them is all the dumbasses who bling em out ! Lift em sky high and take em off road . A kathulu belongs in the ocean not a swimming pool lol!
Link? No, not of these lines. I don't think you've been to Moab. It isn't one trail, my friend. I'm sure lots of cars can do some of it. Don't try to equate that to true 4x4 vehicles, they just don't exist in the same hemisphere.
GM shaved 450 pounds off the Silverado through the use of aluminum for 2019. Makes me wonder if the H2 could have been more successful if aluminum had been used in it's construction. If the truck was 1000 pounds lighter, had more engine options and better fuel economy, they may still be making them.
This thing is amazing off-road. I would have to say that they are better than H1s because of the H2 has solid axles whereas the H1 has independent suspension.
Having first hand experience with the "H1" (military versions) I can tell you an H2 cannot compete with an H1 ever in terms of off road ability. With the civilian ones being much nicer inside the only mechanical differences are that you can get an H1 with a Duramax and Allison trans. Other then that the springs are a bit softer.
We need the tea test at 2:50 everytime you shoot angles and talk about how hard it is to see, Roman. That's crazy steep. What's Gold Mine Hill and the Ike like?
I had a 2003 H2 and put an "elocker" on the front. That rig went everywhere a jeep went, except when it was too wide. Also put a turbo charger in it. 0-110 in no time...
Dam that thing sounds good too. Always been a hummer H2 and H1 fan because I guess Im wierd. I love square shaped trucks like the hummer, full size bronco, and k5 blazer. Just absolute behemoths. I've always wanted a Eddie Bauer 96 fully loaded bronco, black and tan. Maybe some day.
I have owned the Toyota FJ Cruiser, The FJ 40, Jeep Wrangler, and the Hummer H2 is by far the best off-road car I have ever owned. The H2 is so wide and heavy that it doesn't roll so it makes for a much smoother ride both on-road and offroad.
Great video guys, that H2 is growing on me all over again! What real world MPG do you guys get? 100 mile MPG loop at a steady 65-70 mph (without towing would be great).
If you ever see a H3 with a manual transmission, Please get it.. As good as this thing is as a 4x4... I get the feel the more nibble H3 will be that much better! Then again this H2 is really good.. those approach angles are really amazing on a production truck.. I would not be surprised if they where the best ever of all time.
As a Utah resident I really think that they need to install a toll road for ppl driving to Moab from Colorado right after grand junction coming into Utah! I see more Colorado plates then anything down there!
Skodz Gaming with the new technology today honestly a hummer with better fuel economy than back then is totally possible, was a shame that they got rid of the hummer brand
Greg Erbentraut I don’t think currrent eletrionic motors have the strength for a hummer if we want to be mpg friendlier maybe a turbo v6 or a hybrid too
Having the wheels close to their respective ends does seem to really help the approach and departure angles. Problem with something like a truck - you have several feet behind the wheel that still has to clear. Great fun guys.
I have an 04 H2 and a 2018 Power Wagon. I wheel them both. The Power Wagon is badass off road but the H2 holds its own. To be honest I drive the Hummer more due to its better ride and the AWD is better for wet weather.
Awesome video. I think a cool way you could show us how steep hills are could be with a magnetic leveler attached to the out side of the vehicle. Or a plum Bob in the cabin. Thats simply a string with a small ball or aomething on it to show it move when the vehicle is uneven.

Edward Shin Doug was being a little bitch in the Hummer review. He didn't prove anything.
The next video after this in my app is doug's hummer review.
The only thing he was right about were some of the fake exterior designs and the interior
Edward Shin well doug was actually right about the h2 it is a whackass suv
doug is the type of guy to eat soup with a fork so don't stress over what he has to say about it.
The H2 is a great truck. Tons of room, rides smooth, and is capable. I was out in Arizona and did a Hummer tour of a canyon. It was the experience that got me into offroading. The thing went places a lot of the people who diss it would never try.
That wasn't a hummer tour. But I got to see the new military concepts. So I'm biased.
Ryan Martinage nice!
Hummers are so underrated. Celebrities only buy 'em for status, but this is what they were made for. Love the testing.

You are so correct, any truck with that weight will have similar consumption. Reliability was tops on mine, never had a problem with 187.000 miles on the teller.
I always tell them “if you want miles, buy a Prius.”
Most hated truck? They are so spacious on the inside and the 6 liter is badass.
Greenies hate the H2 with a passion.
Let's face it though the transmission is not great by today's standards. What I mean is that with basically every truck now coming with a 6 speed automatic the 4 speed from '03 - '07 really shows its age.
Only car critics hate the Hummer.
Even 6-Speeds are seemingly getting a little dated. 8 and 10 speeds are the new thing now.
It's truly garbage. Breaks all the time, the MPG is a joke, it's mediocre at best off-road, and the interior looks like it was forced into it with a pick axe and a shovel. If you want "a real" Hummer, get the H1.

Having a barely street legal 1st gen Toyota pickup crawler at home with front locker, rear spool, 5:1 low range, propane kit, 35” MTRs I was prepared to be underwhelmed.
To my amazement it was very capable. I was even one of the last people to do the original Lions Back before it was closed for good.
The H2 was as at home in Moab as it was on the streets of Aspen and Telluride.
My only complaint was lack of power on the interstate when bucking 40-50mph headwinds. I think it had the 5.3 liter.

On my 4th Hummer since 2003, won't drive anything else. Quickly becoming a collectors item. Getting hard to find under 80k miles. Love em!!!
In an apocalyptic scenario, I can get away with its very capable off road use, plus with an EMP shield, there no stopping me, I can bug out
This thing is capable, but let's not forget that stock Crown Victorias have ran this trail with no issues.
Link? No, not of these lines. I don't think you've been to Moab. It isn't one trail, my friend. I'm sure lots of cars can do some of it. Don't try to equate that to true 4x4 vehicles, they just don't exist in the same hemisphere.

I had a 2003 H2 and put an "elocker" on the front. That rig went everywhere a jeep went, except when it was too wide. Also put a turbo charger in it. 0-110 in no time...
Buy an H3 now and do a review
You guys to GREAT videos. I"m HOOKED, and THANK YOU!
Traction control 2 is meant for mud and allows for more wheel slippage. Don’t use it on rock. You would have had a lot easier time in some spots!
That was fun to watch. Impressive!
Dam that thing sounds good too. Always been a hummer H2 and H1 fan because I guess Im wierd. I love square shaped trucks like the hummer, full size bronco, and k5 blazer. Just absolute behemoths. I've always wanted a Eddie Bauer 96 fully loaded bronco, black and tan. Maybe some day.
Love the video. I have an 05. Love it Can you put a link to where you got upgraded suspension kit? Thanks!!! Trucking awesome video.
I'm happy you guys put white letters out on your bfg's, they look great on that monster! Good stuff my friends!
I have owned the Toyota FJ Cruiser, The FJ 40, Jeep Wrangler, and the Hummer H2 is by far the best off-road car I have ever owned. The H2 is so wide and heavy that it doesn't roll so it makes for a much smoother ride both on-road and offroad.
Nice purchase Andre!!! Take care of it and have fun with it. Great video guys!!!
Great video guys, that H2 is growing on me all over again!
What real world MPG do you guys get? 100 mile MPG loop at a steady 65-70 mph (without towing would be great).
Please stay tuned for a H2 vs Big Green MPG loop.
Awesome, thank you guys!
Mine gets 12.5 MPG
If you ever see a H3 with a manual transmission, Please get it.. As good as this thing is as a 4x4... I get the feel the more nibble H3 will be that much better! Then again this H2 is really good.. those approach angles are really amazing on a production truck.. I would not be surprised if they where the best ever of all time.
10 mpg +-10%
Excellent video, very happy for Andre to have the H2!
The best video in this channel so far. Guys, make more like this. Old off-roaders please!!!
As a Utah resident I really think that they need to install a toll road for ppl driving to Moab from Colorado right after grand junction coming into Utah! I see more Colorado plates then anything down there!
I wish they would still sell hummers but with better fuel economy
Skodz Gaming with the new technology today honestly a hummer with better fuel economy than back then is totally possible, was a shame that they got rid of the hummer brand
PitchTrails yeah me too but I think I heard that gm sold the rights to the hummer brand off to some Chinese company
No. GM still owns it. The Chinese had to call their version of the hummer the c-series to avoid conflict.
OOH LETS MAKE AN ELECTRIC HUMMER THAT WOULD BE DOPE
jk diesel pls
Greg Erbentraut I don’t think currrent eletrionic motors have the strength for a hummer if we want to be mpg friendlier maybe a turbo v6 or a hybrid too
Having the wheels close to their respective ends does seem to really help the approach and departure angles. Problem with something like a truck - you have several feet behind the wheel that still has to clear. Great fun guys.
I absolutely love my 03 H2.
The most people who rip on the h2 own a land cruiser or Jeep
Always enjoy these father/son adventures.
I have an 04 H2 and a 2018 Power Wagon. I wheel them both. The Power Wagon is badass off road but the H2 holds its own. To be honest I drive the Hummer more due to its better ride and the AWD is better for wet weather.
I would recommend you all to copy this link and tweet it to Doug 😂😂😂
D T Poor Doug had a personal vendetta against the H2
Add a Detroit Detroit Truetrac and it would do a lot better off road and still be street drivable.
bearfoot100 agreed. We have TrueTrac in our Overland 2500 Suburban and it made a huge difference off-road and in ice/snow.
6:49 I actually jerked as if I were about to be hit by the truck. 😂😂
I love your channel. You guys are doing a great job.
Congrats Andre, that's a badass truck!
Awesome video. I think a cool way you could show us how steep hills are could be with a magnetic leveler attached to the out side of the vehicle. Or a plum Bob in the cabin. Thats simply a string with a small ball or aomething on it to show it move when the vehicle is uneven.
I never considered full size spares as possible obstructions till this video. Very interesting and entertaining video! So much #epic
Tommy - you are out doing cool stuff with your old man. One day this will mean everything.
Looks like Fun! Congrats Andre!
Fins and Things is always fun to hit up if you’ve never been off-road in Moab.
Congratulations Andre 👍🏽
Great share men . Always look forward to the videos .
Love the Hummer videos...congrats Andre!
GOD DAMN! The H2 looks like a monster. I'm up in New England and would love to try an H2 on the trails.
Wow that's impressive, is the suspension stock? Do you plan on deleting the air ride?
Are there parts of fins and things that if you can’t make it you can go around it?
It sounds amazing!
What tie rod kit did you put on your H2 and where can I find one? Link please?
That WJ tho 😍 3:11
Cool old trucks. Thanks for showing people what they're capable of.
Changed my whole opinion about Hummers, might consider buying one in the future.
Can you do a video of the H2 vs the Power Wagon
