    Time for a new ride

    It's now not a matter of if but when. Think the orange stang is a going and I'm looking at a Hummer H3 or H3T. Wouldn't miss it much since I do have the vert underway and hopefully streetable by early summer. Just have to get the '04 back to stock

    I daily an H3 - its a late 06 model (I get a little cubby thing in front of the transmission and different daytime running lights) with the 3.5 liter turd of a motor.

    Its a great truck, cept for the complete lack of power and the crappy 4 speed automatic. Let me know if you have any questions on anything and I'd be glad to help

    I hope the automatic, convertible, comes together for you in time. Cool, you can be just another car now ;) Although at least it will be a 4 eye ;)

    let me know. youre in the North Hills area correct? I think i see your car up in wexford all the time. I work for Wright and can probably get you a better deal.

    PM me if youre interested.

    I like the ride on the H3's, i just think they have too many blindspots due to how short the windows are... But the H3T Alpha's are awesome.

    Hummer H3 or H3T
    So let me get this right...You are going to by a SUV/truck built by the same company that just took everyone’s tax money? I would have guessed that if they built good vehicles that they wouldn’t be hurting but I may be wrong.

    Did anyone sit down and figure out how many corvettes that loan would pay for because I am going to call Bush and ask him where my car is at.

    I bought my wife a 2007 H3. Had the 3.7 in it. It was a decent vehicle. Power was on the lacking side but it is a great offroad vehicle. It struggled to even pull my Seadoo up any kind of grade. We traded it in after owning it for about 11 months. Crash ratings and resale value are not the best. I wouldn't buy one again.

    Sorry I'm just a little touchy on the subject ....

    As a side note and then I'll stop .... We as American's really need to support the big three as much as possible in the next few years. If not the results could be DEVASTATING to our economy and way of life!

    Merry Christmas to all
