I know what you’re thinking – the last thing that would belong on AutoblogGreen is a Hummer H2. But this is not an average H2 – this has a 6.6L Duramax diesel V8 cranking out 510 horsepower running on… biodiesel. Burning said fuel, it achieves 26 mpg fuel economy. Whether this is combined cycle, city or highway, the auction does not specify. Nonetheless, for a modest $68,995.00 Buy It Now, it can be yours, and you can be (mildly) green to the environment in style.
It was built by Mash Motors Inc., and has a newly assigned Kansas title because of the encompassing nature of the conversion. It used 99 percent GM sourced parts (so why can’t GM make it and sell it themselves?) and replaced the stock transmission with an Allison M1000 6-speed transmission with a selectable transfer-case (2HI, 4HI and 4LO). The interior has been left mostly stock, with the exception of the info-tainment system and of course the usual 12-inch subwoofer. The exterior has some extra chrome shiny goodness, but for the most part, you could call this a sleeper H2, in more ways than one.
