that have an H1 or H2?

I like the style of the H1 and my H2. I would never go to the H3.

My Wife has a Jeep liberty...Almost anythings a step up.

I like the style of the outside but will have to wait to sit in one. May just add one to the family next Summer.

The five seat capacity is an issue for me. I'd rather get a LR3 with 7 seats.

I wish they could have designed it to look "much" different than the H2. Although the H1 and H2 share the same lineage, at least they have individual characteristics.

The H3 tries too hard to look like its big brother. Perhaps that was GM was aiming for but I think it is a mistake. I think it degrades the H2.

Nah. I would get another H2, but H3...leave that to the kiddies. The seats in the h3 look nice, but interior looks just as crappy as the h2. I just bought my wife a loaded RX330 and it was close to $45 but would blow the H3 out of the water in quality, and ammentities. Of course the H2 isn't anywhere close either but it's a special vehicle. Nothing can touch it in the WOW and COOLNESS factor for the price. It just seems thats something the H3 lacks. I don't know how many people are going to want to have a mini me h2. Look at the Lincoln Aviator. Mini Me-I can't afford the Navigator so I'll spring for this vehicle. Last I checked the sales were pretty dissapointing and Lincoln plans on ditching it for a new design in the VERY near future.

I would not buy an H3. The H2 is in a different class and I would buy another H2 first.

If I needed a smaller vehicle, it would not be an H3.

No, no, no..

Maybe. But I need to see it in person first. And take it for a quick wheeling run.
It is smaller, so then maybe all the H2 haters would think I have a REALLY REALLY BIG DONG. Actually they already know that because I keep it coiled up on the roof. ... just let me dream for a while.

I'm keeping the H2 either way.

I think the new H3 looks nice. IM sure its a great little truck. Like Afrocreame said, it's a mini me H2. I love the bold big look of my H2. Does anyone know how much they are?

i won't buy one, but maybe its a way of getting into the hummer culture, the leaf lickers won't have as much ammo on the H3.
msrp is 30K ish

I heard the H3's are going to be in the 30's

My wife has seen the pics and flipped over it. She feels when the lease is up on her CTS she wants to go the H3 route. She likes off-roading and feels this is more her size.

First off I have had my share of Toyotas, same thing. I personally am done with foreign cars. Iam going to start supporting the U.S. as much as I can. Sure if you are looking for lux. only dont buy an H2 or probably an H3 for that matter. I have only seen what you guys have on the H3.If I needed a smaller SUV, like for my daughter. I wouldnt even consider a RX330 or any other foreign SUV . Iam tired of all the non American owned and ran imported CRAP that is brought here every day!
A large factory call Techniglass here in Ohio just shipped up and relocated overseas. A short time after that they said they were broke and filed for banckrupcy. All the employees lost all their pensions/ retirment.
I would guess that the H3 will sell very well. If I only had 30-35 grand to spend why not buy a Hummer. I think people will just enjoy saying they own one. Thers nothing wrong with that!

Thank you! I couldn't have said it better myself. I really feel sorry for those retirees. There's a high price to pay for buying cheap foreign goods.

I don't like the H-3. It looks cheap and not only that it looks like a Jeep Grand Cherokee on steroids. I like the BIG bold look of my H-2. Thanks But NO thanks I'll stick to the H-2.

I would definatly buy one. I think this truck will be all around great on and off-road. Is there anything out there that even comes close?

I have plenty of pics & vids. Just no where to post all the vids. Care to help?

Looks like the H3 will be kicking 05' Cherokee azz all over the trails. Except for the motor, the H3 specs kill the Jeep. I am sure that true Jeepers will not come to its' defense considering the IFS on the new Jeep. I wonder what inspired that suspension change. Maybe a smoother and more comfortable ride? I can't help to think that there will be some future SAS. I wonder what the pirate guys think?

I know for fact the Jeepers are going to slam it, but lets do the math, $30k for a Rubicon or $35K for something that has more room and has the same off road abilities.

Hate to say it, but a $35k H3 will NOT have the same off-road capabilites of a Rubi. Since the locker and larger tires are both options (probably not covered at the $35k level), I seriously doubt an H3 can touch a Rubi's capabilities without those upgrades. I am a little worried that we won't see the H3 compete for the Grand Cherokee market as well as GM thinks as the base price is a bit high still and 99% of the potential buyers won't give a crap about true off-road performance.

Maybe they're hoping the "because it's a hummer" will bail them out.

My answer is a no.

I wouldn't buy it for looks. Other than the Hummer grill, it looks like every other mid-size SUV on the road. That's what sold me on the H2, it's totally different from anything out there.

For off roading, I'd spend my money on a Rubicon or an old CJ I can modify.

Ya, can't say as I would buy one from what I have seen of them.

I will be trading my 03 H2 in on an H3 and giving it a shot. Save me about 50% on current fuel costs and I have an idea that it will fit up many trails more easily.

It also has to do with the fact you are an asshat Kerry supporter. Do us a favor, take the H2 back to the dealer you got it from and pick yourself up a nice Ford Explorer.

I don't think your Citroen is going to do much as a trade. Maybe if you cleaned out your pile of soiled adult diapers and hosed out the semen from your customers someone could use it as a planter for mushrooms.

I'd get one for the kids to drive or else an older mil Hummer.

That H2's suck. Who cares what they think, most of them still think raping animals is a victimless crime .

If it weren't for the GM discount and business deduction, I would probably have a look. It seems to have pretty good specs for the money, but we'll have to wait for some real world testing on a production model. Think about it, though. If you had the choice between an H3 and what is out there now (true off-road capable - not wannabe's), what would you choose? I think the H2 is a niche market, but has succeeded in creating strong branding which will lead to a lot of interest in the H3 over say a Jeep Cherokee - especially in the younger set. Regardless of wether we like it or don't like it, I personally think they are going to sell like hotcakes.

I agree, GM said they plan to sell 90,000 per year.

LMAO!

I can totally see the H3 as either the new Soccer Mom(no offense)kind of vehicle or maybe just a young dude who WISHES for an H2.I Personally would NEVER be seen in one, but I won't begrudge anyone who gets one!Hey at least it's KiNdA a Hummer

How did the H2 create strong branding. Does a product have to be first to create a strong brand. The brand has been around a lot longer than the H2 hasn't it. Remember the Hummer Brand was the most successful least marketed at one time.

I didn't say it CREATED the brand. I said it created STRONG branding. In other words, it made it more popular. "Branding allows a company to differentiate themselves from the competition and, in the process, to bond with their customers to create loyalty." - Steve Hall, Marketing Vox News. You've heard the slogan "Like nothing else"? Although Hummer was already popular because of the H1, it became even more popular when the H2 was introduced. It is still a niche market because when you look at the demographics of current customers, you will see it is a pretty specific market. However, more people are FAMILIAR with the Hummer brand because of the H2 which will probably lead to more interest in the H3, IMO.

I read the specs and performance on the H3. They are terrible! There are so many trucks with similar or better capability than the H3 for a lower price and in some instances, better quality to boot.

I don't like it, the clearance sucks, the approach and departure suck and it's not even that cool. I've seen Shaggy do some pretty incredible things in his s10. I just can't see buying an h3. The h2 makes sense because the performance is similar to the H1 for a better price with easier maintenance. H3 looks like a bomb to me. I would honestly pick up a jeep over that or even bet my touareg would outperform that tird.

Sorry to any prospective h3 buyers, I just don't like it. Get an H2 or the improved h1 (or a used one if you have a family member that is a mechanic). I'd probably take the H2 and beef it up where necessary.
