Saw H3T yesterday, your thoughts?

I saw a few at the dealer by me Wed. Its an awsome looking misize truck but the price isnt right. Considering what features you get for the $$ in a Alpha you can get a Silverado/Sierra with more gadgets and stuff with the same motor and better mpg. The H3T you are paying for the hummer brand name and off road ability. If you off road alot I'd get the H3T but id not just get a regular pick up. For the money an H3T alpha goes for you can get a loaded fullsize truck.

I really like the H3T but the price is about $5k too much accross the model lineup

a lot of people dont know that the H3T can come in an Alpha with cloth, which highly reduces the cost of getting the V-8, i went in to get an H3 Alpha priced with the Cloth but they informed me only the H3T is available for '09 with a cloth interior and the V-8 engine its the "Alpha Cloth" is the package for it. So you may want to get it priced that way it will turn out considerably less expensive.

Good info, have not heard back from him yet, he knows I might not pull the trigger to spring. Awesome video, BTW, had my H2 with water over the door line in spring to launch my jet skis, would not want to have been in any other vehicle at that moment.

You can build an H3T on the website now. The cloth H3T is only $3k less and with the off road package and just a couple options it sover $40k. Its actually the same price (approx 45k) as a loaded silverado or sierra 1/2 ton. And the Sierra/Silverado come with more features and gadgets.

thanks for the comment on the video! and chisox, doesnt sound like your a hummer person at all...the H3T is a crazy truck so much stuff can be done do it and the offroad capability on it is unsurpassable by any other truck. Its the only vehicle in its class that comes with a front AND rear locker on it. The alpha with the cloth gives you all the same options as the normal alpha but with the cloth, plus you still get the leather headrests and the leather wrapped stearing wheel. And 3 grand is a lot of money to save, thats either 3 thousand more dollars in your pocket or 3 thousand more dollars of more useful options, and truthfully i have cloth in my H3 and i find it ten times more comfortable than my friends H3 and he has the leather. And at the end of the day the sierra or silverado are still not Hummers.
