Well this is definetly going to be interestng to set back and watch. I actually have not talked to anyone that is not a Hummer owner to get an idea of what they think on H3. I know when last May I decided to get My first H2 I seriuoly sat down and looked at the other top end SUV's and they were so close if You call $10,000 close but, so close that I thought if I'm spending that kind of money I'm getting My dream RIG from the first time I ever saw it. I went down and paid the man took My 2005 H2 Stealth Gray Dream Rig home. When I drive around and yes I'm blinged and see the other High end Suv's they just do not look as good and the people I know that own them tell Me they do not get looks or waves. I get waves and hi's great looking H2 etc. have had one birdie fly by but she was a teen in a car load of teens that were envious after leaving a boxing match and they were all excited full of well energy lets say.
What I'm thinking is if what My dealer told Me is true to get an H3 loaded out is going to be $39,000 to $44,000 almost same situation I was looking at I would spend more and get H2. Dealers are cutting deals on H2 and on a brand new line I do not see alot of cutting unless 6 months after release they have alot still setting around. It really is a crap shoot right now until they start to promote it.
It is like in a post above. The H3 is the H2 little brother and I've thought about it and I'm going to welcome them and be the Big Brother cause after all they will always be the little brother and wishing they were the Big Brother. If they talk smack Big Brothers usually win the fight and little brother just gets smacked around and remembers why they wish they were the Big Brother.
It will most definetly be interestng to see what happens. I hope they sell well cause if it is a failure I'm worried what it will do to the Hummer name and possibly the availability of H2's in the future if lack of sales rips GM a big new one if H3 does not sale could it hurt H2 production.
Here the SUT is flopping. In a rural area like mine they can not carry enough to be a truck is what some are telling Me and they are going on and buying full size truck to work out of and with 4 doors they can put family in and go. It is losing to much interior by making a truck bed and to drive around with family they would rather have Full size SUV. I was at Dealer recently and am friends with a one of the Assitant Ser. Mang. and he said the SUT's are just stacking up over there on the other side of the lot. When I hear that it worries Me now they put out to 2 new gambles rolling the dice so close together with SUT and H3 if it goes bad agian the Hummer name and Gm's pocket book will hurt.
Could that push the cost of buying the H2 SUV up to offset loss of finances? That is My concern on the whole deal. I hope H3 does well.
I hope the SUT is doing well else where. I do not want thier potential failure to hurt H2.
