The Future For The H3

Future is bright. Nothing else comes close unless you like station wagons that really have no balls...

Redesign is not 2011...that date for a complete redesign is inaccurate. If my powertrain/chassis charts are correct, and I have to assume they are, the redesign will be sooner. Can't say when, but trust me on this one.

I have to agree, H3 is affected more by fuel mileage due to demographics of the owners. H2 owners fall in line with Escalade owners, the price of fuel is not the factor in the purchase. A lot of H3 owners are looking for a vehicle that is "cool," to drive, and not a necessity. (Most also do not visit websites either.)

I would guess the reason GM dropped the AFES sales is due to the fact they were considered fleet sales. No, they weren't selling to a fleet per say; however, they were selling at fleet prices. They still offer a military rebate (at least they do for most of their vehicles). GM is slowly dropping out of massive fleet sales due to the very low profit. That is one reason why GM is not giving the large discounts that Chrysler and Ford are currently giving. (Not in marketing or sales, but this is what I am hearing.)

I think the H3 could be a big hit as it has only been out a year and scoping out the used car market an H3 is hard to find, so people are hanging on to them and I predict they will easyly out sell the H2.
