Well, I also had a 08 Dealer loaner....and like you, I wasn't impressed. Except for one or two things. The stereo was awesome, door handles and rear hatch are very easy to open.

The running boards are a waste of money, seats are terrible and the list goes on. I've read that many of you say its easier to park and drive in the city....I don't see the difference...but oh well

I agree. The H3 is a 'completely different animal' than the H2. I owned a Lux H3 for 2.5 years and now have an '08 H2. While I thoroughly enjoyed the capabilities of the H3 (tight turns, easiness to park, very agile on off-roads, easy gate entry, distinctive look, great speaker system Monsoon with sub-woofer,etc.), the H2 is so much larger, very well appointed, comfortable, less blind spots (in my opinon) .... but the price tag is also much higher. Because of the higher price, you get many more options. You really can't compare the two, other than they are the Hummer brand. The side steps on the H3 aren't necessary .. I would step up just to bend down to get in. On the H2, I definitely need the side steps. No climate control in the H3, so 2nd row passengers would often complain it was too warm while I was cool upfront. Uncomfortable 2nd row seating, while in the H2 the seating is very comfortable (3rd row so-so). Again, I really enjoyed my H3 and often received compliments on my "Baby Hummer"... it had a nice look and a good ride to it... better than any others its size on the road. But the H2 .. my all-time favorite, is in a class of its own by far. Not fair to compare the two.
