I just got back from wheelin at Hollister Hills in cali. While I was wheelin the Onstar person came on. The vechical must of thought i was in an accident because of the angle I was at. I told her i was just wheelin and that it wasnt an
emergency. On the way home I noticed that my air bag light was on. Only the drivers side.
I called onstar back and they ran a diagnostic.
She told me to take it into the dealership. Is this going to happen everytime i go wheelin now?
Overall the trip was great!! Got a few scratches on her and ripped the license plate off. The gearing is amazing and the rear diff. locked saved me a couple of times. H3 has more then enough power for wheeling thanks to the gearing.

I don't own an H3 yet. It looks like it will be awhile longer (waiting for that potential diesel, dangit f5stop).

But you get a calendar!  Actually, I met Brian a couple weeks ago at the HH and it seems like a really cool group and they do some great runs.

Hi! Just got back from a trip between Dallas and Fayetteville, ARK. I know much of the discussion is about off-roading...and I can't wait to take my H3 to my deer-lease in the Texas hill country....BUT..I've just got to give a line or 2 about how outstanding I think this H3 is ON road...I averaged 80-85 there and back. It drove like a dream...having driven a Suburban for the last 5 years...that's saying alot. I was able to pass on FM roads without a problem...on the Interstate it purred like a kitten. The heated seats Rock on brisk mornings. We did go to Devils Den State Park in NW ARK but no opportunity to off road...just park roads. Am looking forward to opening day...Nov.5. I called OnStar on the way just to try it out and they pitched a package of 100 minutes for $20 which I will definitely get...just for the info/diagnostics it's worth it. After doing my own calculations I got 16mpg...probably because my rpm was around 3k for most of the trip. That must have been a pretty steep angle to pull your license plate off!!? Good luck with the airbag light. <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Originally posted by HummBebe:

No, not Bebe clothes, it's cajun pronounced BayBay, an affectionate term like "baby".

Hi again...sorry about that last post. It should have been directed to GotSandH3. Does your alias have anything to do with your preferred choice of clothing? My fiancee can't ever seem to get enough Bebe clothes. I like the way they look but it just makes me want to take 'em off...I guess that's the idea!<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Originally posted by HummBebe:

Also used the stock skid plates a lot. My screename stands for what it means. I go to Pismo Dunes a lot and perfer wheelin in the dunes. You cant get that many scratches out there. Let me know if you guys and gals want to go wheelin with me this weekend. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Thanks for the invite GotSand, but that's probably a full 2-day drive for me! I'll be in the Texas Hill country though and hope to do a little rock climbing. I may have a few scratches scratches when I get back...Mesquite & Live Oak tree branches....scrrreeeeeeech....it makes me ill to think about it. I think I'll bring my tree saw. Have a good time!
