I just purchased and picked up a new H3, Yellow with black leather, sunroof, Lux Package, Off Road Package. Purchased from a local dealer in Louisville, KY. I was the first one they sold an H3 to that used the GMID. I talked them into it over a 2-3 week period.

MSRP 37,639.00
GMID 34,348.89

Savings of $3,290.11 whoo hoooooo

Congrats Gary and welcome. Post some pics when you get a chance.

Gary, did your H3 have H3 embroidered into the front headrests?
Each yellow one I see around here have the H3 embroidered and yellow gauges. Dealer says they come in that way.

You did your homework and even though it took you two to three weeks to get the dealer to take your GMID Certificate it was well worth it!

In NY some dealers where not taking GMS for actual GM employees. I was fortunate enough to find a dealer in WNY area that allowed me to use mine.

That is why a site like ours is so great, you can find out where the best deals are being made! </span>

Congratulations on your new H3! I'm researching and considering purchase. I too would hope to use a GMID. I'm located in NY -- Marc, you mentioned you had difficulty and then success. Would you mind sharing which dealers gave you problems and who ultimately "hooked you up".

Thanks to all.
Chris

<span class="ev_code_blue">Syracuse wasn't accepting GMS, Rochester wasn't sure if they would.

Buffalo Hummer was willing to take a few GMS certificates.

THANK YOU BUFFALO HUMMER! </span>

I'm telling you guys a trip to Dallas and drive back in a GMID priced H3 is the way to go..

F5 -- H3 embroidered in the yellow truck headrests? That one is new to me...

f5fstop 08-02-2005 03:05 PM

Three of the yellow hummers at Suburban Hummer, Troy, MI had the H3 embroidered in the headrests, and the salesman stated they came from the factory that way. Now, maybe Suburban had it done, and the salesman doesn't know his *** from a hole in the ground.

Hummer Guy 08-02-2005 03:27 PM

probably an idiot salesman...

Well, being a Cowboy fan, I could probably plan a nice trip to see my team and pick up a Hummer. That being said, it's just too far from NY. It would be a nice ride though.

Try the four dealers in the Detroit area; Detroit Hummer, Novi Hummer, Suburban Hummer, Friendly Hummer, most have quite a large inventory of H3s. They are also willing to accept GMID, GM Supplier and GM employee plans, since this area is filled with GM employees.

Another area that might work is Buffalo since GM has a large facility in Tonawanda.

BTW: f5fstop is correct... for those that don't know it we are the only facility (GM Powertrain Tonawanda) that makes the I-5 for our H3's. </span>

Nnone of the H3's come from the factory with embroidery. Nor yellow gauges. Those are dealer add on's and the salesman doesnt know ..... from a hole in the ground...

Gary
Enjoying my H3!!!!!

IS300_TRD 08-02-2005 08:32 PM

hey HummerGuy

I live in Dallas and in the market for one. I think I have the SVPP through my company which is not GM. Do you know if any Dallas dealerships will take it?

HummerNewbie 08-02-2005 09:50 PM

Pretty sure his dealership will

Hello Everyone,
I just purchased a Boulder Grey H3 with my GMID...Like Gary, I was the first one the dealer I went to accepted here in the Boston area. I checked around with every dealership within 100 miles of here. Saved $3300 on the sale so it was definitely worth doing the "homework".
