v-8 H3 $42k
new H2 $50K
GAP GETS CLOSER?
H4 will have the I-3?

The I5 is adequate. It works. For people that don't mind it, I think it should stay in the lineup. The H3's a heavy vehicle. It has been driving me bonkers because of my commute. Any time we take it out of town, I definitely have to adopt the mindset of not passing. We have a 6.0 Denali and perhaps that's why it drives us bonkers because it seems like a hot rod compared to the H3 and when you get out of one into the other, the difference is profound. If all you drive is the H3, it probably never bothers you.

About that price? You're comparing apples to oranges. What new H2 are you going to get for $50k and what new H3 are you going to get for $42k?

Dayum folks, you act like I'm peein' on your hubcaps. Nobody's saying you should buy a new H3 or that the one you're driving is krap but can anyone seriously say that that the 5.3 isn't a better choice if one likes or needs more power? I've heard that people are resistant to change but this is ridiculous.

I've read on this forum, for over a year now, people buying this intake, buying that exhaust, sending their computer out to be reprogrammed, putting this performance gizmo on or that. Now, from the factory, we're going to have the choice of making the H3 a real performer in every aspect, not just offroad, and there's resistance!?

I'm thinkin' that maybe some folks are worried about their diminished resale or something because I can't figure it out.

Now, if I can just get Hummer to put in an integrated trailer brake controller and tow/haul mode for the tranny.....
