Sorry, I meant they removed from the rear door, and moved to the back. And my "I'm not sure why they camo.." comment was more of a rhetorical joke than true misunderstanding...thanks for clarifying the true use of camo, though.. ;)

If that's it, that blows! Not even close to the H3T i have in my office.
I didn't expect it to be exact but closer to the concept. This reminds me more along the lines of a ZR2 Pickup. Wich is fine, but a letdown in my eyes.

:iagree: Seems like this will be a direct marketing of a mid sized pickup with a hummer badge. Good for Home Depot runs and ski treks.

I was really hoping they would release it as was the concept H3t. I was already priming the wife for the fact we would be trading her Audi in for it.;)

Two doors, maintaining the curent body length would have been nice. Then they could have introduced this 4 door later in the year or the following year.

Re: H3T Spy Shots? Looks like it!
 
They sure advertised the sh*t out of the H3T considering they won't actually produce it. There are more H3T toys and die casts than there are for the H3.

Re: H3T Spy Shots? Looks like it!
 
I like it. It keeps the practicality and usability of a truck. The folks who buy trucks for everyday use are going to love it!

:D

Dealer told me a few weeks ago about that H3SUT with the 5 foot bed. Said about 18 months until it hits the showroom and it will have a V8.

That is all he said. Sorry that I can't be more specific, but he's always been truthful in the past with me about new stuff coming out. As always, things will change in the manufacturing process, but that is what GM has told him.

It's a little known secret but Hummer tests all it's prototypes here in Mexico.
Just the other day, I came out of the mall and found this parked in front of my 69 Vette.:D

Yea, dealer might be right except for the SUT designation.

It looks good to me. Maybe they will make 2 and 4-dr versions.

V8 or V6?? Let's hope so.

With the wheelbase and over hang they would need to raise it a bit but no problem. Look what a stock Tacoma p/u will do.

Watch out Tacomas

You can have a frame mounted hitch with the spare tire in the back

When is the H4 coming?

I hope it doesn't have that massive rake to it like the spy photo. Gonna take more that 2 1/2 turns to level that puppy out.

f5fstop, with a V8, will the towing capacity be increased? Any rumor as to what?

I would get one just because I love my H3 and I miss my Dakota.

I think it's doing some heavy braking.

Re: H3T Spy Shots? Looks like it!
 
With a shorter bed and a V8, I might consider trading in.

Wisha Haddan H3 10-05-2006 07:11 PM

Re: H3T Spy Shots? Looks like it!
 
Maybe it will look better later, but it doesn't appeal to me. I would have preferred a 2 door extended cab the same size as the H3. Or even a 4 door SUT version on the same chassis.

Desert Dan 10-05-2006 07:37 PM

Re: H3T Spy Shots? Looks like it!
 
If they make the 4-door and an extended cab GM will sell more trucks!

And GM need to sell more cars, trucks and SUV's Fast!!

Some people want a 4-dr truck others want a longer bed with and extended cab.

Toyota does it with the Tacoma so It can't be that difficult I think it is the same frame on the 4 door with short bed and the extended cab with a 6-foot bed (at least it was on the older models).

BlueHUMMERH2 10-05-2006 07:47 PM

Re: H3T Spy Shots? Looks like it!
 
:iagree:

There was a thread on here recently about giving up a pickup to buy the H3: http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ghlight=pickup I remember some people had gone back to the pickup. So there's a demand I'm sure for people who want to retain the benefits of a truck bed and still have a Hummer. They're probably not represented here right now because they went with a pickup over the H3.

I think a version with 2 doors, or extended cab, with an 8ft bed would be a great addition. That way you can still squeeze in 4 passengers and have 8ft of bed.

Desert Dan 10-05-2006 07:52 PM

Re: H3T Spy Shots? Looks like it!
 
I wish they would make an H2 HD 1-Ton Pick-up with a real bed too.

BlueHUMMERH2 10-05-2006 07:56 PM

Re: H3T Spy Shots? Looks like it!
 
Yeah, that would probably sell like crazy. I can imagine a lot of people would buy it for towing.

They should be mixing something like that into the H2 lineup. I think it would be helpful.

There definitely was an H2 pickup in the works, don't know what happened to it... The book on the H3 had a picture of all the GM Hummer designers and in it was the H2 pickup in the back

tell them to build it! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. I'll even take it with the same interior, engine and trans.

That would be one sweet truck! I'd buy one for sure.

I've been hiding from the Hummer people lately due to the front diff and the rear axle groan and this week jumping on them about the t/case fill procedure being all screwed up. They are beginning to think I'm a trouble maker. (I am :jump: ).
I'll suggest it next time I see them....

I think there is a possibility it will come back someday, but when????

2008 would be my suggestion. :jump:

I'll even take one of their test mules to Moab for them.

Spy Shots: HUMMER H3 SUT

Posted Oct 4th 2006 3:39PM by Randall Halcomb
Filed under: Spy Photos, SUVs, Trucks/Pickups, GM, HUMMER
You can always count on Bob Lutz to provide a wealth of future product tidbits at his press conferences. Spy shots posted on LLN confirm Bob's comments about new Hummer models. This H3 captured is both longer than a standard H3 and is camouflaged in the rear. A close inspection reveals the tent work that is hiding the back of the truck sags aft of the B-pillar, indicating without a doubt there's a bed back there.

This is obviously the SUT version of the H3, but we're still looking for the H3T concept to make it to production as a dedicated truck, one we'd gladly choose over a Chevy Colorado or GMC Canyon. Lutz did hint that this was a possibility, so we're keeping our fingers crossed.

5. Crew cab actually. I wonder if the bed will actually be separate, it looks a bit long for the midgate system.

I would much rather just get a Canyon crew cab, avoiding looking like a poser and pissing off fringe environmentalists.

10. The military HUMVEE is built in Mishawaka, Indiana.
The Hummer H1, the civilian version of the HUMVEE, is no longer in production.
The Hummer H2, more civilianized, experenced slowed production some months ago and now rumors are hot and heavy among the UAW Local 5 members, that production numbers will not only be cut again, close to 100 workers will be laid off.
The Hummer H3, the one in this blog, is of course made elsewhere.
How do I know this news? I live in Mishawaka, Indiana.

12. Another evidence that styling alone will sell a car/truck. The H3 is just a ugly to me as its bigger brothers (and it's a good thing because it looks just as manly macho man - village people style)

The H3 has all the visual clues that makes it look much higher and much bigger than it actually is. This is why it sells so well (being so cheap helps too)

At least GM has this one right: sell on looks. Same thing DCX did with the 300. Looks badass, sells alot.

17. I see a big mistake there: the bed is long. It has a big ole' rear overhand that will destory the truck rear approach angle.

There goes Hummer's credibility on off-road. And there goes the prime foundation of Hummer.
