I’ve owned almost ever kind of SUV: a Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Wrangler, three Suburbans and three Hummers. I’ve sold all of them in less than a year. My first H2 was a standard black one; I loved the way it looked, but the performance sucked. After a 60-year-old man in a beat up old Chevy S10 beat me in a stoplight to stoplight race, I knew it had to go. My second H2 was Whipple Super Charged. It was pretty fast, but the engine kept having problems and the MPG was a dismal eight.

I started to fantasize about an H2 that could drive like a sports car and still get decent miles per gallon. I started doing some research into what it would cost to convert it to diesel. I found a wrecked pickup with 65K on the engine for $15K and found someone that would do the conversion for about 1$5k. While doing more research, I found Mash Motors Inc. Inc. on the Internet. For less money, Mash Motors Inc. would put a new engine in my Hummer!

I sent a black H2 down to Wichita, Kansas. Mike and I talked back and forth about all the different options, and they are limitless. After about three weeks, my Hummer was done. I flew down there and drove the H2 back to Minnesota. This is the first vehicle I’ve owned for longer than a year, and I still love it. It’ll accelerate faster than any SUV or pickup, and faster than most cars. I towed a trailer from Minnesota to California, through the mountains, and very seldom did the thing leave sixth gear. I get around 20 MPG. I’ve had a few user errors with my H2 and Mike has always been able to help me out.

I’ve had it to the shop for the regular maintenance and all the mechanics have told me this H2 is amazing and the conversion is just impressive. My only regret is that I didn’t do this a lot sooner. I wouldn’t have wasted my money on all my past crappy SUVs.
