Between the two I would have to go with the Caddy. But if I was getting a big ass truck I'd get a Ford F-350 Super Duty!

I was going throu the same problem last year . It was a HD truck , escalade ext or a h2

It all maters on what are you going to use the car for. If you want to tow I say get the caddy. If you want a tank get a H2 . The Both have the same chassis and engine . I just thought the second row on the hummer was way to small.

+1

If you live in the bay area, imo, those tanks are useless in every way. good luck finding parking in any city

+1, I like the ruggedness. I am hoping to have one in August for promotional purposes for the MAGIC show in Vegas.

meh, HD truck is in a class all by itself, it can't be compared.

i know the HD is in its own class ,but these where the trucks I was looking into. I was looking @ a 04 burgandy H2 or a 05 ext in the same burgandy. I bought my HD truck and I'll never look back again.

H2 on 24s ... I'm tired of denalis and Escalades

Just remember that the Hummer brand is now retired.

I don't know what you intend on using the truck for but my vote is for an Escalade.

I would take the Escalade. But only thing about the Escalade is that its basically a Suburban with Caddy emblems.

I would get a new 2010 all black Tahoe with all options, 24" black rims with the chrome lip....

Neither.

Financially pointless. If you have to be seen in either of the two, then it's your choice.

If your thinking hummer and dont get a H1 you should be shot on sight [patriot]
 
Posted by NavidR (Member # 3164) on :
 
I have had both and I loved my H2, I would have never sold it but the wife couldn't drive it [Frown]
