3 things Hummer should consider changing on the H3

[Ipedog]

Another Bump to the power rear window. Currently my 4Runner has this and my dog loves it, its a great way to air out the cabin, and to deal with long items. When I get my H3 this is the item I think I'll miss the most.

Moving the window controls would be a good idea as well. When I test drove I thought this placement was really awkward.

What is strange is the fact they are using two different bumpers. A trailer hitch bumper without a trailer hitch would not look that bad, and would cut costs. Right now, GM has to have two unique bumpers shipped for assembly, as well as carry two unique bumpers in GM parts for replacement.
I can see why they cut out the center of the bumper to decrease any loss in angle of departure.

How about a couple of these safety air bags

That would be very bad to the Gluteus Maximus ..

Power rear window would be great.
Climate control will be missed.
Tailgate opening up would be nice but not with the spare under the vehicle. Would loose to much clearance and probably departure angle that way.
A pair of Vincent's safety air bags for each seat would make it a great seller too!

I just want 2 inches

1. Move the brake pedal 1 inch to the left.

2. Give 1 more inch of clearence between the driver's seat and the door.

JUST 2 INCHES

i can live without all these improvements, but non folding rear seats are just plain silly and annoying. how difficult is it to fix them? even 1982 jeep cheroee had them right... </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

The rear seat actually does fold down, it just doesn't fold flat.

[bparker]

1. relocated the license plate holder as it gets ripped off when you climb a cliff.

2. relocate the freggin window switches to where the door handle is so they are not at your elbow. and put the door handle where the switches were. simple... only pigmy people can reach them without getting all bent out of shape =)

3. put a bowl in front of the shifting assembly similar to an ashtray so you can put the crap in your pockets there like a cell phone, sun glasses, can of skoal, pocket change etc..

Hummer, if you are reading this - trust me these are things that will improve the daily pleasures of owning and driving an H3.

I loved the leather, but to have leather in SC...your a brave soul. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I had black leather in a Vette Coupe in TN, and never had a problem. My big butt never sweated and it wasn't that hot getting in and out. Then again, I also owned a Jeep with vinyl interior, and in the sun on a hot day, I could fry a leg on that interior.

The only thing that sucks about that is look at the older blazers, broncos, 4runners and what ever else had rolldown rear window RUST. I myself love the idea but for those who plan on keeping there trucks for a while this could pose a problem like in the past.
