H3 sales down 43%

[Dave92270]

I think that in order to bump up sales these days, GM could try to focus on current H3 owners and enthusiasts (those who already purchased Hummers would more likely be interested in buying again because they know the quality they're getting and who don't care too much about MPG) and introduce those features that many existing H3 users would like to have (and that were not present in the '06-'07 vehicles) in order to give us some motivation to trade in for new models, losing thousands of dollars on early trade-ins, but at least getting something worth in exchange; base V-8 equipped models (maybe even with manual transmission) with no bling, dual lockers option, straight stance and clearance to fit 35's without any mods out of the factory, stuff like that. Maybe an "action model" that would be off-road loaded including the winch etc... I lately see so many new, good (understand mean) looking, and undoubtedly very capable off-road fitted Wranglers around my town, but only very few off-road Hummers - and those are always only H2's, never an H3; haven't see a single one yet.

Since my truck operates flawlessly on and off-road, there is no real reason for me to trade-in, and so I'm waiting for the "right" model to come out, to give me good enough reason to spend $$$.. I have my H3 little over a year - I would trade-in (and therefore let GM make money again), but only if there would be enough cool new stuff to get me interested...
