I am a proud H2 owner. I've had two of them. I went and test drove an H3. I love everything about the vehicle, the size, the feel. But it just has no power. It's weak beyond belief. What a disappointment.

I guess they had to appeal to the tree-hugging crowd this time around (sigh).

They could always slap their foreheads: "I COULDA HAD A V8!"

From what I hear from current H3 owners is that at first it feels very underpowered but you don't even notice after a while. I will have to wait and reserve judgement because my little test drive really didn't give me the chance to test it out.

I hope I'm not doing that after getting mine

The lone H3 kept up with us at last Hummer event, and the only problem I saw was driver confidence.

For glimpse of H3 in video....

I think that will be the biggest problem for a lot of H3 drives, myself included. Good to know there are plenty of helpful people out there to help build the confidence.

I remember when I went from a GMC Full size truck to a Toyota tacoma double cab - and I was like "where the hell is the motor?" Well after driving it about 10,000 miles I stated to enjoy the 6 in it.

I am sure the 5 will be the same in the H3. I personally would like to see a S/C on as an option.

I would love to see that

I have about 2000 miles on my new H3 and it seems to perform better after it breaks in. Even passing on 2 lane highways is acceptable. A S/C would be nice, I'm going to try upgrading the exhaust and intake first though.
