Sex: Male
Age: 23
Marital Status: Happily single
Occupation: 3D Animator/Modeller
Reason: Size, MPG and styling, a used H2 would probably fall in a similar price range, but I just love the design of the H3.

Sex: Male (bought for wife)
Age: 28 (bought for 24 y.o. wife)
Marital Status: Married
Occupation: Mechanical Engineer (wife is a high school English Teacher)
Reason for getting H3: We were looking for a mid-sized SUV (4 doors) to replace our Chevy Silverado Ext. Cab. We had decided on the Nissan Murano until we saw the H3. The wife fell in love with it and for just about the same price as a loaded Murano we are the proud owners of a Black H3. Plus, it is offroad capable and I'll be testing that out soon.

Demographics:
average age 40 um...not quite
income 100k dual 75k single ...close
male 60% I guess you can say I bought it but it is actually for the wife
married 70% got this one
college grad 55% yep
children 64% in the oven
cars in fleet 2 actually we have 3

Buyer is active and adventurous
confident but not brash
driven by long term goals, believers in working hard and playing hard.
most have not considered H2 because of size, effciency or price I have considered an H2 long and hard...will have one someday. SO I guess this one is wrong

Marital Status: Married 12 years and about to do it again (yikes - there's two of us on here )

Reason for getting H3: Bored with Jeep Unlimited in stock form. Would cost $Ks to modify it for offroading (which I wanted to get back into).

Missed the luxury of previous Grand Cherokee and then heard about the H3 and it was love at first bite.

Sex: Male

Occupation: IT Network Engineer and Project Manager
Location: Daytona Beach, Fl.
Reason for getting H3: Been driving my wonderful M3 going on eight years, but I need something to pull a trailer with a Harley on it plus carry an occasional surfboard or a kayak and go exploring off-road from time to time. Got tired of borrowing other people's trucks. Been looking for a year, but wife won't drive a pick-up truck, and I hate all of the boring car SUV's. H2 was too big and over-the-top for me - never considered it. Discovered the H3 - finally a real mid-sized off-road truck-based SUV with a manual trans (like the others started out as) and decent styling. Hope my friends don't think that I am trying to be trendy - I want to go off-road, and get there in comfort!

Occupation: Current, Engineer; Previous, Federal Law Enforcement
Reason for getting H3: Want something to replace my Jeep since my Butt can't take anymore cross-country trips, and my forearms have not recovered from the cross-winds on I-70 through Kansas earlier this month, so the Jeep has to go. Also, just moved to MI and the roads here are terrible (that is a mild under-statement), and my Jeep bounces all over the place, and my Corvette is being slowly torn apart; bushing and tire, by bushing and tire. Therefore, the answer is to sell both and purchase a Luxury H3 with off-road suspension. This will not happen until a final Corvette road trip back to TN, over labor day
Thought about an H2, but it won't go places that I normally go (see photo), but the H3 will just fit. Horse Canyon Trail, Canyonlands (Needles Area) National Park

Occupation: Student at UT Austin
Reason for getting H3: I go hunting and go to various ranches all the time and needed a vehicle that could perform well off-road, and still was small enough for me to use in the city. I have owned a lifted chevy z-71 p/u and my last car was a highly modified 2002 audi a4. Amazingly I don't miss the audi at all, and hope my new project car can turn out as well as my last one...

Reason for getting H3: i dislike the H2 for some reason. i love sports cars. i live in new england. the BMW M3 i owned was so not practical for a daily driver in new england. i decided to be a little more practical but due to my aquarian traits and love of cars i could not bring myself to get a "boring" SUV. i needed a 4 season vehicle with lots of cargo space and looked badass. hence, the hummer H3!!! i like vehicles with a "cult-like" following (i.e. jeep, BMW, and now hummer). its also nice to not have to pay for fine german car labor rates and parts.

Reason for getting H3: I drove real HUMMVE's back in the day when I was active duty USMC and I love the offroading capabilities. This H3 platform makes its possible for a guy like me to own without being in debt to a guy name Guido. Also It gives me bragging rights and Chicks dig it! Also, I was at Airveture in Oshkosh (Air Show) which I drove my H3 on the actual grounds that are restricted to all vehicles except the V.I.P. or official vehicles that are required for crew support. Normally we would of drove the Govt van. But I talked my 2ndLt in taking my H3 to the venue and he agreed. We put the pass in the left front window and off we went. Now Ford is the offical sponser of Oshkosh and our C-130 Aircraft was parked right next to their huge disply tent. So I was very proud to park my H3 near the Ford vehicle displays. Man, I loved the attention my H3 got!!! Just driving at 3 mph through the fair grounds slowly dodging large crouds and having people of all walks of life pointing and kids yelling "Look Mom and Dad an H3!" My friends, thats what its all about! Sorry Ford.

Reason for getting an H3: My husband has been driving me crazy for years that I need a new vehicle. I've been telling him, that when I see something I wanted, I would let him know. I found something I wanted! He just about had a heart attack after my test drive and I told him - YES I want one!

Reason for getting H3: I've always loved the Hummers. When the H2 came out, I really wanted it, but for some reason, it felt too "tall" and not the typical "wide" like the original Hummer. I still liked it and was ready to get one except it didn't fit in the garage and the gas mileage wasn't great. As soon as I heard about the H3, I knew it would be mine...and it is!
