Help decide..03 or 08 H2

Post by YruiY »

Need your help with your opinions on deciding which is best to get.



2003 H2 with 150,000kl for $20,000 or

2008 H2 with 60,000kl for $40,000.



Is it worth double the price in the long run.



Your help would be very much appreciated.

I would go with 08, lots of new features but you would need to describe it a bit further..but for 20K, you could do a lot of MODs on your 03...a lot!



If you look around I have seen some 03s go for 15K...

Go with the 08 . Very solid and you can buy a GM Extended warranty with it ! alot of bugs worked out by 2008 ! Does it have the reverse camera GPS system in it ? GM did a nice refresh on the interior also .

The 08s are really nice.. Keep in mind that in 08 the H2 got a brand new interior, more powerful 6.2L motor and a 6 speed transmission!! If the 08 is the budget then I'd say 100% no question about it, it has a bunch of great improvements over previous years!!



Also taking into consideration resale, the 08/09 H2s should hold their value better than previous years due to all the upgrades the vehicle received and also the relative rarity of those years!

My last truck 09 150 had a 6 speed and I miss it when towing.... If I had a choice Id get the extra ponies and 6spd .. Although 20 G's in aftermarket parts gets you alot !
