My first H3 experience

[slgcmg]

I dropped off my H2 to get the radio fixed and they gave me an H3. I have been thinking about buying one of these for my wife. Here are some things I noticed.

The steering wheel is a lot thicker than the H2.

Has pretty good power for a 5 cylinder.

It was a really bumpy ride. My only question is would the off-road package be a smoother ride because of the better suspension.

Hmmm, bumpy ride? Not in my H3. I have the Lux package, no off-road. There was a thread running around here about a bumpy ride, but it was due to bum tires.

The ride is great, quiet and smooth...unless I'm on a real shady trail or road.

maybe that was why.. I am going to test drive one this weekend

I am trying to sell my wife Jaguar S type. it is a lease and we owe 15 payments on it. you can take over the lease payments and just turn it in after the lease. Payment would be around $390. anyone interested???

I agree with you H3OH, I have the lux and no off-road and I couldn't believe how smooth and nice the ride was on my first 300 mile trip home from the dealership.

Have you tried here (http://www.swapalease.com)? I got rid of my Infiniti FX35 there and I owed 29 payments. Got my H3 and love it!!!

I just put it on there about a week ago. I have had a lot of hits but no buyers yet. How long did it take you to swap it?

It took me a month or so to get a buyer. It's funny because I actually listed it twice. The first time it was on there it took at least 2 or 3 months to find a buyer. For some reason, I got cold feet and decided to hold on to it (the H3 wasn't even out back then so I don't even know what I would have gotten). Once the H3 came out, I immediately listed my Infiniti again and had a buyer within a month (actually, I think it was even less than that but I can't recall exactly). I'm so happy I waited because I was able to get the H3 instead of whatever else I would have gotten back then (probably another Denali I guess). It's tough but you have to be patient until you find a buyer and even then you have to be patient because the transfer process itself can take a few weeks. It's really a great service and it eases any concerns about being "locked in" to a lease for any length of time.

I love my H3, but I don't know if I'll hold onto it for the full 36 months. If they improve it a lot (backup camera, steering wheel controls, more HP, better mileage, etc.), I may give it up early so it's nice to know I have that option.

BAH! I thought you were goin to share a real "experience" with us - like with a woman in your H3....
