"And for more of my thoughts on the hummer go to Autotrader .com slash oversteer where I've put more of my thoughts about this rental and compiled a list of my top ten reviews of other cars I've reviewed that were rentals!"
SomeOffensiveKid05 Rent a car to make fun of it? Vehicle Virgins - and especially me - has the car for you; the Toyota Prius. If I were to rent something to talk trash on it would be a Prius. The reason Vehicle Virgins rented a Prius was so he can talk trash on it and drag race it like that guy who did 61 in a 25 with his Prius in Horrible Bosses.
Despite all these "cons" i still have a crush on H2s and H1. Oh what the hell, early 2000s suburbans, escalades, yukon Denalis, navigators, excursions all hold a massive special place in my heart 😄
After watching this I trusted my instinct and bought one last week. Mine is 20yrs old with 150k and it's surprisingly quiet on rough roads. My steering isn't loose my body doesn't roll and as a non City dweller who lives off dirt roads, I found it's the best riding vehicle I've ever been in. It's very comfortable and feels like a pillow on rough roads at 50 miles an hour. It is a bit ridiculous for City people though. I pulled a semi truck and trailer off of a four-by-four only road yesterday. A Jeep showed up and turned around because he didn't knew he didn't have a prayer pulling a semi. These things are like a Jeep but for men. I get all the quirky things and the cheap gm stuff but for performance and reliability this thing is serious. By the way I'm getting 13 MPGs in the city.
Exactly!! I used to have an SUT and I'm looking at an H2 now. Basically a bigger cozier more powerful jeep. Who cares if they're obnoxious, that's half the fun. 😂
This guy can’t see past his entitlement! A true review would include allllllllll pros and cons. I have never felt more embarrassed watching a young kid act like this on a review! It seems no one respects OR appreciates anything anymore, unless it’s totally millennial upgraded 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And pray tell, Charlie Sthill, what profound insight into the genre of rap music are you privy to that apparently no Black person (I assume you've spoken to them all) has yet to stumble upon?
Charlie Sthill what does a person choice of music has to do with anything. Should I make myself like county or metal I don't understand the point of your comment. And just more then blacks enjoy rap music just like more then white enjoy county, pop or heavy metal.
One good thing about this vehicle is that it has tons of room inside for tools or to sleep in. It also has 8 bolt hubs that will be able to handle big tires and a semi floating 14 bolt rear axle on coils with link suspension. Sturdy and decent clearance.
Lmao 😂 I’m a Automotive tech , I had one come in to the shop with the top down . I had to test drive it for a overheating issue, I fucking hated it !!!
Bought two new h2 the Christmas of 05. Best vehicle ever I no longer own them but both are looking like new and nearly 500,000 miles. If I had any Idea they would make it past 200 I never would have sold both.
The video was funny. I am in the Army I have driven H1s for over 10 years. I have a 10 inch lifted H2. I have a lot of fun fixed most of the design flaws but all in all it's a fun driving experience.
when i was a kid i was like, i want one when i grow up. then i grew up and realized they are gas guzzlers. so instead i got a chevy suburban...much more fuel efficient
He clowned on the H2 so bad. Growing up in middle school,high school when these were in there prime. Everyone wanted one, and if you had one ultimate definition of a baller. Sitting on 24s or the off road look. Where im from back in the day these things had respect and people would move out of your way. Maybe he got bullied by a hummer owner or ran off the road haha
First Last dont get it? you want to have things the bank owns,its called credit.let me guess.you buy 1500 dollar junk yard cars cash and tell everyone they cost more than what you actually paid, and that you're better than everyone else cuz you own your stuff right?
Cody Baker your sentence structure is a bit incoherent. So I'll try to Cypher through your trash grammar... Not sure what you don't get about my statement. It's simply put so that a five years old could understand it. Not sure where you live or come from, but I live in a very progressive area of the US where saving your money to buy things outright isn't frowned upon. If you want to overpay for your things by paying lenders, then be a stupid ass for the duration of your life, but you could achieve that without being an asshole to ppl who have their financial house in order. Have good day.
Vectored Thrust You should be more embarrassed that you’re a sheep who’s only saying that because you think agreeing with Doug will make you part of the cool crowd. The H2 Hummer is a kick ass vehicle.
Well, for a start I've thought the H2 was stupid long before I discovered Doug Demuro. You should feel even more embarrassed to think it's "kick-ass" when everyone is laughing at you and assuming your penis is smaller than a AAA battery
Samuelfish I've done that plenty this morning anyways. It's a good way to wake my boyfriend up, I have to say. Also, my dad is quite proud of me for finding someone who makes me happy and I'm prepared to call a life partner. I'll admit he was a bit hesitant at first, but he's warmed up to him. That being said, I don't feel comfortable discussing mature subjects with someone who, judging from your language and grammar usage, I assume is 12 years old. So yeah, can steer a conversation to recommending you a car from Fisher Price you might like to drive?
Homophobia is a common way to express your sexual imperfections when dealing with a lack of masculinity or other insecurities. so yes, he probably has a small penis.
I drove one for about a year and to be feir quite comfortable . Just like driving sitting in your house's sofa with a head window. Amazing when you drive on a highway overseeing the ocean. The gas mileage is awful but fun and comfortable overall.
Boris Lienks i dont think the Aztec can be worse than this, and yes i know what i just said sounds crazy. but think about it. both the H2 and H3 were horrible shit. so was the Aztec. i think both are just as terrible as each other
Not really. The Aztec is a cheap shot joke, but it actually has some redeeming van-like qualities, so it's not a more-embarrassing vehicle to drive than the H2.
Hahaha so TRUE! I lived in Central Valley for a while and every street someone had a hummer parked out front of the tract houses before and around the 2008 housing crash
Texas here and everyone and their mom was trading their big trucks for the hummer lol. Then what seemed like a few months later everyone hated them with a passion.
You’re entitled to your opinion but after 10 years of having an H2 i think every family should have one. Maybe not as their daily driver but as an all around utility vehicle. It will do anything you want. Pull a boat or bobcat…. go through mud but even better in snow. Perfect vacation vehicle…. the H2 got my family out of harms way during a flash flood while on vacation hundreds of miles from home. It has a hitch in the front where i have a removable winch. My H2 is an 03 with 240 thow miles …. i wouldn’t sell it for 50k because you can’t buy anything that will do what it can for less than 60k now…. you have many points that i can’t deny but the H2 is a tool and for what you can buy one for now it’s a steal and great investment…. good luck bro thanks for your content
It seems like a Jeep Grand Cherokee with the hemi and a lift kit would be able to do all of what you said but for far cheaper and with better gas mileage
"It is the single most embarrassing vehicle a human being can drive. And in this video, I'm going to show you why." Doug, You've ended up wasted 8:59 when really all you need to do is look at the thing (it needs no explanation). Oh, and BTW you're wrong. Truly the most embarrassing car you could be driving right now is the Pontiac Aztec. I challenge you to do a review on that car without puking.
Regarding the rim design and the tire inflation system on the H1: I don’t think it’s a bad thing. It’s a cool throwback to the original Hummer and I believe if any other car had something similar, Doug would like it and commend it. It’s not like a fake vent, intake or exhaust, it’s not supposed to make anyone think “oh look, that H2 has a central tire inflation system” and nobody even would (most people probably don’t know the story of it anyways). All in all, I think it’s a nice throwback and I like the way it looks
At least the Aztec doesn't lie about what it is. That's the joke with the Hummer, it's a crappy GM SUV lying about being a military vehicle, whereas the Aztec is just a crappy GM SUV being a crappy GM SUV.
Pontiac Azteks have become "neat" with age because you dont see many of them anymore and theyre kinda representative of early 00s attempts at "futuristic" styling
@@P7777-u7r Never anything "neat" about a Pontiac Aztek. For the record, you didn't see many on the road back when they were introduced. They're one of the reasons why Pontiac is no more.
I bought an H2 new in 2008. Still have it. Still runs great. Still looks good. Interior still in good shape. Everything works like it was new. Has 300k miles. Tows heavy trailers very well. Very little repair work needed. It’s actually fairly quick with the 6.2 and 6 speed trans. Mileage no worse than any other full size 4wd. Receive many compliments when it’s out in town. For whatever that’s worth.
I have owned my h2 since 2006 and after 12 years it has been the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned and had basically no problems. Mine does not rattle like the one you drove and the seats are very comfortable even after a 17 hour straight drive from FL to MD. It is wide and so you can’t park in small lots. It is also tall and I took off the racks so I could fit in parking garages and my garage. The handles on the hood are what you grab to pull the hood up after you unlatch the side clamps. Honestly unless you own one and have experienced the long lasting durability, well your view is only limited to the short rental time.
this guy talking bad about an H2 Hummer allegedly had his girlfriend stolen from a guy you had an H2 Hummer so if the guy really knew what he was talking about he would realize that the step bar is not a regional part of the Hummer it is a aftermarket this guy is such a clown
Off-road performance of a sports car? You have obviously never taken one through the mud. It’s hard to get them stuck because they just keep plowing through. Look up videos on RU-vid
I have a friend who bought one new. He still drives it every day and it looks brand new. I can’t imagine how much time and money he spends on maintenance.
It's 4 a.m. I still have a paper to write but decided to watch a full review of the Hummer. Only after scrolling down to read the comments of other Hummers' owners did I decide to stop procrastinating on my English paper.
It went out of business because of the 2008 crash and recession, and then rising gas prices. It had little to do with anyone considering it "embarrassing."
He might not be lying, but he damn sure is wrong... again. The H2 sucks, but I can think of 5-10 vehicles that are far more embarrassing to drive than the H2. Doug is just a poor troll
I owed an H2 and loved it! It was the vehicle I ever owned. I only sold it because Hummer went out of business. This guy is just mad because he couldn't afford a Hummer.
We all have our opinions and since you never owned an H2 and sounds like you are most likely a radial left-winger, your opinion does not mean anything to me.
Even some of the Mercedes SUV's of that era weren't special in anyway. Especially the M-series from that time period, which felt and looked more like a Toyota that you paid Lexus prices for.
And Doug is a pussy 5'1", 110lbs man. If he could open that hood, then any non handicapped human could. He could put that on his list of life achievements now.
I saw an H2 that was lifted and boy did the engine sound awesome these vehicles get 500,000 miles and that is really reliable that's if you keep maintenance and of course enjoy the hefty belt Hummer because it weighs between 6500 and 8500 lb and that is a really good connection to the Earth and great traction it being so heavy and getting through a lot of rough terrain. I really like this vehicle and the reason it gets 11 miles to the gallon is because it's so heavy they're just isn't anything that much heavier than this and it's got some nice curves the way it's laid out and it just looks very intimidating and a really good machine to drive off road. Thanks for the review I might buy one of these.
While the H2 is certainly abysmal.... I would argue that driving a Pontiac Aztec beats the H2 for most embarrassing vehicle you can drive... not by much. But it still wins.
Dear All, The presenter of this video has some sort of hatred towards the Hummer H2, as a Hummer H2 owner i do not agree about what he say, specially misleading the public. Hummer H2 is half the price of a Hummer H1 and when it was launched it was the best most capable SUV other than the Hummer H1. Hummer H2 has a fully boxed chassis with a standard rear locking differential and it’s made bigger than other offroad vehicles not only to stand out as a iconic vehicle but also to conquer obstacles other vehicles cannot overcome. Simply to do things that a Hummer H2 does, other vehicles need lift kits and added skid plates. If you want to know more info about the H2 see the video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-51QJAXVLTac.html Hummer H2 greatest achievement is its strength in the body and chassis its 2900kg of high strength steel and galvanized body, in a head on collision it performs better than any other SUV. Also Hummer H2 can tow heavy objects, even though its rated as 8000 Pounds it can easily pull a stuck Buss/Lorry that is several times its weight (20000-3000 Pounds) its all because of its strength and durability. And after 5 years its production ended (due to rising oil prices) still its rated among top 3 of the vehicles with the highest resale value, its all because of its strength and durability. I was lucky enough to own a H2 and test its capabilities, even if i couldn’t afford one i will never hate it, because thats what my Buddhist teachers teach me, if you cannot achieve something in this life do good Karma and keep an ambition to obtain it in next life, so you will achieve it. Thanks for reading, and never learn to hate things other people love. I will not reply for any hateful messages. Regards David
David Huntington Because other people like something, you can't be critical of flaws? Get real. That's the such a backwards and sensitive way of thinking.. People can have their own opinions and think for themselves. Just because people don't like something, doesn't mean their opinion has to affect you at all.
Actually his first criticism is the fact that the H2 is like basically a Hummer for people who can't afford the real thing... Also I'm not sure how he is misleading anyone. All of his criticism accurate.
I sat in one at a car show & was surprised. Seeing it from outside I expected more room. We checked out an Expedition, Yukon & Armada. All had more usable actual room.
The H2 has all vital components within the frame rails and protected by plates, grid guards, and cross members. The shifter location is perfect, otherwise it would have had to go on the column. Borg Warner transfer case, Eaton lockers, factory grind bars and a bulletproof engine. I love it still.
I have a H3 and i absolutely love it. Yes the visibility is not well but you have to understand it is still a hummer. And always get offers on it. But I do have to agree with the very cheap plastic that used.
Doug can you seriously start a new series and just roast crappy cars in it? This was too hilarious. You have to keep doing more of these and separate them from your general car reviews.
The H2 "really somehow manages to take some of the worst things about the old H1 and the worst things about a full-size SUV or pickup and really combine them into one without giving you any of the benefits of any vehicle that you might actually want to be driving" (@8:16). And that, my friend, is how Doug came to serve.
Shazam Shazam you're literally exactly the type of person who would drive an H2. you think driving a hummer makes you look manly and "not gay", and you're so butthurt people are hating on your ride in the comments lmao
MrKickyouindanuts When I saw it for the first time with that wrap around window I just stared...in shock...trying to comprehend who thought that would be a good design? It doesn't even look like a car. At least the hummer you know what it is. The cube just looks like they designed a car accidentally dropped it in the liquid metal pool like in terminator pulled it out before it got completely melted and decided it was a good design.........
Snoop Doge it's two young kids 17 I believe that some how have access to some decently expensive cars, and claim to have x amount of ways to make money.
Funny thing is, everyone whose ever actually owned a H2 says they love it lol. I think of NFSU2 when I see one of these, and all the crazy awesome things you can do to it
Doug forgot to mention the horrendous turning radius the thing has. It sucks and the only thing that makes it worse is when you cut an H2 in half and add 200+ inches of limousine between the two halves. The experience is akin to trying to drive an Aztec pyramid with a flat. The 53 passenger limo bus turned tighter, shit you not
Lol any limo is "hard" to drive and has a shity turning radius. My H3 has a WAY better turning radius than my Explorer. I tend to find that people who bitch about Hummer are just lazy drivers. They want the car to do all the work and can't be bothered to do simple things; like sitting up straight, or adjusting the mirrors...
