Re: Speculation time...
Not sure I understand your comment. The truck itself or my opinion? As rugged H2 said, look at the drawing on the wall.

Re: Speculation time...
The "hood handles" in that pic are ridiculous.

Negatory. Look at the blinker on the front fender and air cap on the mystery truck and compare it to the H3T.
Also, the H3T, like the HX, is not that big/tall.

Re: Speculation time...
there is a pic of a colorado on the wall. the h3t is off the colorodo fram and even uses the colorodo bed. My guess is that it was the early h3t concept. The airboxes are the same and so are the hood handles.

There's so much wrong with what you just said, where do I start?
The studio houses more than just one HUMMER, and possibly houses more than just HUMMER's. The H3 sits on a unique frame which was based off the colorado. It's heavily modified and reinforced, it's NOT the same frame. The H3T is based off the H3 frame but of course is lengthened. The bed is not a colorado bed, it's a completely new bed unique to the H3T.
Now about the unknown HUMMER, the airboxes are not the same as the H3T concept, and neither are the hood handles.
This is not the H3T concept.

Its to large of a change to be an h2. Hummer is not know for drastic changes on body styles. Hell the h1 hasnt changed since it was released and the h2 has been looking the same all 5 years its been out except for the minor mirror change and the 08 grill lettering relocation. Also if you take a look in trucktrend where they are testing out the h3t's it says. " GMT745 the new 4 door pickup is based on the existing h3, with the chassis lengthened 23 inches to accommodate a 5 foot colorado/canyon bed and full sized rear doors. How correct that is i dont know maybe try and picture the h3t bed without the extensions on the side.

Nothing is too drastic, the H2 sales are dropping, people want a change, a big change. This isn't the H1, which sold 12,000 units in its entire run. The H2 needs to be refreshed, and as has already been acknowledged by some people in the know, the H2 will get re-styled around 2009/2010.
Now about the H3T, that is not a colorado bed, not even remotely close. The bed is unique to the H3T.
Some magazine editors still say the H2 is built directly off the Tahoe frame, so that tells you enough about how reliable their info is.

They were most likely referring to the test mules, which did have C/C beds on them. Or they were just plain wrong like when they mentioned switching into 2H.

Yeah, so? You can't really tell anything from this drawing other than it appears to be a 4 door pickup.

Re: Speculation time...
OOOPS.....got a number wrong! Put a 4 instead of a 3. Good job you 'Experts' are here to correct me. Here's me thinking this was a thread about speculation on what vehicle it might be? Don't actually see any speculation coming from the 'Experts' and 'Gurus' apart from how tall and how old the Designers may be. Interesting. Keep up the flow of useful information.

Re: Speculation time...
I think GM'll make the new H2 more H1-like in design.
