Why bother designing a great 4x4 then marketing it as a minivan. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Unfortunately, the vast majority of buyers (forum members excluded obviously
) will use it like a minivan. How many users (see disclaimer above) do you think are going to use the H3 to its full potential?
The knock on the H2's for a lot of people are its size and price. So why not market the H3 as a
smaller and
more affordable alternative? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
I agree, and it appears to be working. Personally, I have not seen a good car or truck commercial in years, so what GM is offering with the H3 is, in my opinion, no better or worse than other manufacturers.
Then again, I'm not your normal consumer. I research everything, and discount all advertising as BS, and that includes everything from my Plasma TV to the Hummer. Yes, since I work for GM I will, in all likelihood purchase a GM vehicle, but I didn't always work for GM, and prior to GM, I purchased vehicles based upon what I researched, not what some marketing wiener thought I would like.
