    H2 gas mileage

    I'm in the market for a new truck and i was looking at the H2 but just don't like the 8 miles per gallon it gets but was hopeing someone made something to help gas mileage like a hub system not as if one needs full time 4 wheel drive if anyone knows anything Post it

    I agree with this guy ^ ^ ^. Personally I wouldn't get an H2. Maybe and H1 if I was loaded in order to buy gas,or an H3 if I was set on the Hummer mark,but not an H2. And there's way better looknig SUVs out there, like a Merc G-wagen, those are nice. Expensive,but nice.

    I think the H3 is ugly too, the rear fender flares look way too big and it looks so cheap and plasticky

    First of all, what size of truck are you looking for?

    For big trucks desiels are definitely the best. For medium trucks there's sooo many choices, but the Chevy Trailblazer SS is real nice and it has a Corvette engine so the gas mileage isn't too bad. For small trucks there are also many many choices, just depends on what you're looking for.

    You don't buy a Hummer and worry about the gas consumption. You buy it cuz your ego is a big as the car.

    i only have one thing to say, RANGE ROVER, worth the extra 10 large over an H2, so worth the money, they're not even close when it comes to the quality, WHITE LEATHER AND BLACK PIPING on the seats.

    4.7 lt V8 15.5 - 17 lt per 100km.

    By the way the free wheeling hubs will not really do too much to improve economy.

    That truck has a 35 gallon tank I think so it probably gets bad MPG caz the tank is so big and full and because it has huge displacement with lil power.

    With the gas money wasted on that truck I could do so much more.

    Ive never heard of that causing bad fuel consumption before.

    If you want the Hummer to go offroad but dont like the consumption, consider a Landcruiser like crisis suggested. If youre never gunna go offroad, then anything else will do i suppose.

    I was being sarcastic of course but they do carry around quite a bit of weight when the tank is full hahaha

    Its a good idea on any car to fill up only half way so the car doesn't carry around a full tank for nothing.
