Who has done this when they first got their H3?
OK, probably more for the manual trans owners (like me now)...
First night. I parked for a while. It's dark out. Start the truck, release the parking break and the hood opens!  They are kind of near each other.
c'mon, who else? Am I the only one?

Okay... This sounds like the prelude to a "romantic" interlude. Remember, its okay to love your Hummer. Its not okay to LOVE your Hummer!

Re: Who has done this when they first got their H3?
I have to admit, the first night I had mine I did it. Sad thing is, I got out, shut the hood got back in and did the same damn thing 
The hood release is located at about the same place the break release was on my other SUV. GF did it once or twice too and now she isn't allowed to drive it anymore

I do it on a daily basis.
Ok..maybe not, just trying to make you feel a little better. |

Gee thanks. If you don't hve a 5 Speed Manual trans, you probably don't use parking break much. I never do unless it's a manual.

Re: Who has done this when they first got their H3?
I have a auto, but my dad taught me to always use the parking brake. He said it was a good habit to have, but I can't remember the reason.  |
