I'm guessing it is a few reasons.
One, the majority of H3s were purchased by soccer moms/dads and they have moved on to crossover vehicles. A majority of these people feel it is uncool to purchase a Hummer now.
Two, price of fuel is rising and the Hummer name does (wrongly) denote poor fuel mileage.
Three, many are afraid of not obtaining service. Not realizing GM dealers will continue to service the H3.
Four, off-roaders will eventually snag those remaining on the lots.

I almost jumped to a Rubicon myself, but I was able to get a damn good deal on my lease through my original selling dealer. So, I didn't have to spend a few week stripping it down, and the price was right.
