I've been lurking for awhile, reading all the interesting discussions. I ordered my H3 on June 28th, build date was July 25th. Just checked with my dealer and it was shipped on July 29th on its journey to Montana. It should be arriving around the 12th of this month. I'm so excited I can hardly stand it! Slate Blue, Lux & Adventure Packages. Two mile dirt road to my house with frost heaves, pot holes, mud, snow, deer, etc. You get the picture. Got the Lux package for the heated seats! Adventure package is self explanatory for my area. Black tubular steps (5'2" female), brush guard, not a lot of extra bling, just a good solid package for living in Montana. Great service from my dealer Denny Menholt in Billings - 250 miles away, but the only dealer in Montana. Called a dealer in Idaho, but they were not very cooperative. The hummer sales manager in Billings, Curt, was great. Kept us informed right from our very first phone call to him, when we wanted a test drive. So far this dealer is highly recommended!

Congrats!
Welcome to the club! Slate Blue was my number one choice, but the wait period wouldn't cut it for me!
Enjoy your new H3!

What the Hell!!!! I have been waiting for my Slate Blue since March 18th, you ordered just over a month ago and its on the way
Just kidding. Congrats and please post some pics when you get it. I believe you will be the first Slate Blue owner here. Hopefully after 5 months of waiting I will be the second

Congrats MontanaH3, by coincidence I ordered my Boulder Grey, Lux, Auto, Sunroof, XM, Chrome Appear./wheels, etc., on 06/28 and was notified today that Lynch Hummer has an invoice and VIN, so it shouldn't be long for me either, they couldn't give me the specifics on the shipping yet...I'm just thrilled that it's built! Let's see who gets theirs home first...

Oh, that's not fair. Mine has to go farther. The dealer said with any luck it might arrive a day or two earlier than the 12th. I'm hoping for that, since the order to delivery date was 6-8 weeks and it is now scheduled for the about 6 1/2 wks. How do you guys who have been waiting for months stand it?

You are correct, my bad. I forgot about PineButt getting one. Hasn't been around here since posting the pics
Montana, the wait is driving me crazy but I can be a very patient person when I have to. It was even worse for the 2 1/2 months that I was waiting to actually see one in real life. Being able to see one really helped for some reason.

I still have not seen one in real life...I think I will go "dealer hopping" this afternoon and see if I can spot one.
Maybe PineButte is too busy offroading to post

Mx,
Let me know if you have any Blue ones down there. Mine is supposed to be the first Slate Blue that the Orlando dealer is getting and he said around the end of the month or first part of next month.
