H3-Truck Test Mule
 

Hi All,

My Buddy was up a Silver Lake (MI) sand dunes. Caught some guys from GM in H3's and H2's running around bashing on a test mule of what appeared to be an H3-Tuck.

He said they were giving out zero information on anything.

I have bigger just couldn't post.

Cool thx for the pic, is that a spare on the rear hatch I see?

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

that looks like the pictures ive seen of the H3 test truck for the SUT version

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

I like what I see, it has definitely been stretched and I like how they are not using the rear passenger doors as part of the wheel well, that area is always a pain to clean after wheeling.

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

x2! I swear I spend the most time trying to clean that passenger door/wheel well area. Hopefully, it will also make it easier for bigger/taller people to get in the back seat.

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

Very interesting.

Here's a short article and another picture from a different angle.

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

man i dunno about that thing. will it still have the 4x4 parts on it? that thing is way too long to go fully offroad with... if thats the case will it have the alpha v8? or will it actually be more powerful to actually get some work done?

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

clearance will be affected by that longer wheel base.
everybody will want a 3" lift now.
it has to add a ton more leg room in the back seat though!
i dont know why they didnt just go with the original concept and keep the same length and a semi open back seat.
at least that way, it has nice lines.

Seems to me I've seen quite a few Taco crew cabs off road, and the answer to your questions is yes.:jump:

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

Crew cabs sell better in smaller trucks. Trust me, the lines will be just fine.

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

cool
can't wait to see one, or rather the rest of one!

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

Looks like the hardcores will have to bobb 6 inches off the rear. :dancingbanana: If youre going to bobb you might as well dovetail it too. :perfect10s:

Found these over at gmHummer:



COMMON... THAT's NO PLACE FOR THE SPARE TIRE TO BE! :twak:

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

it is hard to tell from those pics, but it seems like the changes will reduce the departure angle.
i think it make alot of sense to stow the spare underneath, although it will be a big mess anytime you need to do a tire change.

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

I think it's going to kick A$$. With the amount of trucks I see up here in the Gold Country, it's going to sell really well with the construction crowd.

Now if someone could just come up with a decent lift kit.....:beerchug:

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

man you didnt get out and talk to them. i woiuld have gone over there and checked it out and talked to them.

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

I'm going to put my Alpha plans aside for the next year and see what this has to offer. I've seen twice comments about the V8 as an option. I'm going to check it out.:popcorn:

Re: H3-Truck Test Mule
 

It will be the break over angle that will be affected, not clearance (but I knew what you meant ;) ) and yes and no on the leg room. Yes it will have more leg room than the standard quad cab in this size truck, no, it will not be different than the current backseat of an H3 - it will be identical as far as leg room goes.
