I found this site way before the H3 came out and have really enjoyed coming to it often to read about Hummer lifestyle.
But I find myself coming to this site less and less, because its kinda like getting kicked in the balls when you enjoy your H3 so much and want to share the "experience" with others but find yourself sorting through the "omg did you know your valve covers were made by pigmy Indonesians!?!?" type posts. And the "omg my H3 doesn’t handle like a Ferrari around corners!! ewww icky i hate it GM suckz and why did I buy this heap?".
Its disheartening to those that would like to share the good and the bad (technically justified mind you) and keep this forum real.
I am not saying censor them - just give them a place to go and belly ache to themselves and let the rest of us get on with enjoying the life and sharing more positive moments.
Honestly I believe that some people thought the H3 would be a "Lexus like" suv and its not. Its a dam truck and it like to climb over things. We dont care where the bolts and nuts were made or how it handles small bumps. A small bump to me is called a Honda and tell me how it handles going over one of those and I will listen - other than that you are in the wrong car.
Maybe its just me, and I apologize in advance - but I feel like I should speak up and say something instead of just not coming here and reading some of the many fine posts made by other enthusiast.

Its kinda funny,but Paker has a point.It seems like the same person has nothing but complaints about her H3.Makes me wonder why she bought it in the first place.My favorite one is the outside rubber gasket around the windows.You guys know what I am talking about,the gasket that takes all the weather abuse along with sunlight blairing down on it.Whats f@#$%^% next the wheel wells get dirty when off roading so I had the dealer replace them.I have not seen her post 1 positive thing since she bought her H3.Take it back and trade it in for lexus suv then find thier forum and bitch.I feel so much better now.

bparker,
I feel your pain.
Vehicles are my hobby. I buy and sell frequently. I love my H3.
I don't understand how H3 Lady can be so negative about hers. Has anyone confirmed that she really has one?

hate the game not the players. I do not own one but sold Hummer for 3 years and drove the 3 and fell in love with it 3 years ago when the concept was shown to dealers. Don't be afraid and enjoy your rig.

this is a public forum to discuss the H3. the H3 is just a vehicle. the H3 is great. the H3 also has problems. we're here to discuss the overall vehicle, both good and bad.
if realizing the imperfections of your purchase upsets you then you should probably not come here!!! i don't mean that in a mean way but from my experience, any car/vehicle forum is going to be the #1 place to rant about stupid crap.

I doubt that "lady" and her pansy ass son will be back. Thank goodness. I like reading the H3 posts, but hated her complaining crap. Or maybe it was her son.... Whatever.
Now STFU and GFY!

I, for one, don't have any problem with discussing the pros and cons of the H3.
It's my vehicle; not my religion. However, I think H3 Lady is just a troll trying to stir up trouble.

I kinda agree with bparker. I'm not a hummer owner yet....and unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my control- I'll be stuck with my piece of **** Element for longer than I wanna be. I've always been a Hummer fan and have wanted one for so long that I've actually stopped counting the years. It's depressing to me to come here and read complaint after complaint after complaint. I don't mind discussions but damn if there's THAT much wrong with the H3's then GM should have a recall or something. BUT since there's not a recall or anything that I know of yet....it leads me to believe that some people are having buyers remorse. How one could have buyers remorse on a H3 is beyond me but until I actually get my H3 I'll never know. I guess the H3 means something different to each of us. Yes I know it IS just a heap of metal however it's a heap of metal that fits my personality 100%. And the wait is absolutely killing me...

I can’t say for sure as I am still pretty new to this forum but I don’t remember reading anything from her that was complementary about the H3.
I ordered my H3 a little over 2 weeks ago. After reading several of her negative posts, I just assumed she was trolling.
I think the best thing we can do if she continues to post here is just ignore her and let her threads die fast and hard.

Yes, I have noted several times she's got a lemon and should either return it for a new one or get something else. It does get old real fast.
On to better things...
I love my H3 and I just love driving it around. I'm looking for some good off-road areas (scouting) and sometimes drift off the road just to keep her in shape. 
Love it, love it, love it!!!!!

Love my H3 and have had no complaints or problems. I have learned a lot here with some of the problems, etc. Fortunately, they have yet to apply to me.
But I wonder what some people thought they were buying, after all it is a truck.

The "Perfect" vehicle.
I wanted a Hummer, and that's what I got!

Probably the biggest complaint that I have seen thrown around is the lack of power. Well, I was going down the highway Friday night and there was an H2 and an H3 on the side of the road. As I was coming up the H3 pulled out and we were running side by side for a little ways at 75-80. Guess she wanted over because all of the sudden the H3 just shot forward. Under powered? I was actually impressed at how quickly it took off at that speed.
Some users started out doing nothing but complaining and it did get old. Some people are just never happy with what they have. If it isn't perfect than it is crap. Never seen a perfect vehicle in my life, anyone else?
Dani, like HIHUMMER said, keep the faith. I ordered mine on March 18th and am still waiting. I did get a call from my dealer just over a week ago that it was supposed to be in on the 8th. Unfortunately, as many here know, I have to cancel my delivery. The money I was using to buy the H3 I decided to spend on an investment and so I am waiting until Dec. or Jan. to reorder or take one off the lot. Just think, they will get the bugs worked out by the time we get our H3s

Can we get a "I hate my H3" section for people to post in?
