John,
You drive an old 4 runner... but the power in the H2 was a deal breaker for you?
325 horsepower / 370 ft lbs torque is a little better than the 22RE.
The last H2's came with the 6.2 403 horsepower / 417 ft lbs torque.
I know sounds funny right. but here is the deal. We have a long straight road out of chico called Hwy 32. It climbs very steady into the foothills before turning into a road racers wet dream. While on the test drive with the H2 it would not even hit 70 and the throttle was on the floor. even in my 22re I can hit 70 (with a running start) lol. My parents ended up buying a rare sports car anyways and as I stated before I am still making up my mind lol. What used to meet my needs before is starting to become more of a pain than a positive. 4 doors would be nice, a little more power for the weight ratio.
the last H2's did have the 6.2 the 2007 and before had the 6.0 standard. As a whole IMO the H2 was just to heavy for the motor that GM chose to use. The Duramax setup in the H2 was the answer and the cure. The power to weight ratio is what kills the H2 and from what I have heard about the H3 Alfa those issues should not be a problem although the standard h3 with the inline 5 will always be a bit sluggish (like the toyota 3.0)
Honestly if Hummer was not about to disappear forever I would probably look closer at the H3's smaller platform. But seeing as how GM is trying to off load the last ones now and will no longer be supporting the line... Kind of makes me queezy to think about it. I have looked at several vehicles and still having issues matching up to what i want out of a rig.
somewhere between a excursion with a PSD and a tacoma lol
Anyone ever hear that song from Johnny Cash - "One Piece at a Time"? :coffeedrink:
Oh and thats a 84 Hp 22re
