H3 Buyer to be? 06-10-2005 07:17 AM

Ok, I know it is late (2am) and I just got back from getting the rig.. I have heard many good things about the H3, now for my not so good stuff.

1. I CAN'T SEE CRAP... From front to back seams like a mile and the rear wheel, and headrests are both in the way.

2. The steering wheel not telescoping REALLY SUCKS. I can barely reach the steering wheel because my seat is so far back to fit in the thing.

3. I wear a size 13, and I had to take my shoe off to get to the gas pedal, they are wayyyyy to close together.

4. If they wanted to make this more comfy they could have let the seats move down about 5 inches.

That is my list after only a 3 mile drive from the resort at 2am. I will get some pics up tomorrow night.

Damn, that sucks...I can list the exact same four complaints about the Colorado CC. I have such high hopes for the H3; haven't even driven one yet and now I reading complaints about the same things that bug me in the Colorado. Does the engine sound like a wind-up toy when you get on it? That will really burst my bubble!

Thai: Uhhhhm, never drove it...

Holliday: And No, the engine sounds fine to me.

Holliday sighs in relief.

Another peeve: don't you love how you have to lean around the right side of the steering wheel so you can see where to insert the ignition key to start the truck? I'm sure it's the same as the Colorado.

Had to look for it, you are right. Why are the pedals so damn close together? It is almost as if the gas is under the brake!!!

Uhhhh..GM engineers have small feet??? I have no clue.

I've hooked my foot under the brake pedal more than a few times. What's the number?...the H3 uses only like 15% of the same parts as the Colorado?...must be all the "worst" parts, eh?

When I test drove it, I had no problems with the pedals....there are blind spots though. Nothin like my RV.

I should hope not. And I have noticed the pedals being close together...I guess I've gotten used to it. I don't notice as much anymore that I've been in and out all the time.
