I used to get right under 20 mpg on the highway with my alpha. After the rims, m/t's and torsion crank, I really have to work to keep it within 16-18 mpg. Probably 12-14 mpg in the city.

The h3 is a pretty unsophisticated/uncomplicated vehicle. Not nearly as complicated as your previous GM luxury vehicle if we are thinking about the one that rhymes with sadillac. However, the h3's interior is more comfortable than most comparatively priced and off road equipped SUV's - much nicer than the Jeep unlimited, and in my humble opinion, better road manners as well.

No kids, so I can't answer the last two questions.

Final word - the hummer is a wicked off-roader and commutable daily driver at a great price. I love mine
