Carey how do you like the soft top? I am 85% sure my next vehicle will be one but I am a bit skeptical since it gets butt ass cold here during the winter and I don't enjoy freezing to death. Any problems at all with it even during spring and summer?

Frank,
I love the soft top. It gets real cold up in wisconsin as well, the thing to make sure you get if you are going to drive a soft top in the cold is a 98 or newer HUMMER. 98 was the first year for the insulated soft top, I have NEVER been cold in my soft top. The other option is to get an older non insualted soft top and convert it to the newer top. The new top insulates as well as a hard top HUMMER, and sound proofs about the same as a hard top. I have had no problems with it, it is water proof and very durable. The only thing that kind of sucks about it is because it is so thick and large it is quite heavy. Getting it off by myself is not really a problem, but putting it back on with one person can be interesting. There are lots of people out there that will tell you that it takes 15 minutes to get off and up to a half hour to put back on, that is crap. I can get the top off of my car in 5 minutes by myself. Putting it back on with two people takes about ten minutes. I am 100% satisfied with mine, if I were to replace it I would definetly get another rag top.

How did the PJ's hold up? 37's or 38's? How did they do in the snow on the road?

[ssgharkness020147]

Tim, I always thought and still think PJ's are bitching tires. I had the 37's on my 98 and they were awesome. They were REALLY well behaved on the road, and great in the snow. Slippery roads were really not a problem, but you do have to be light on the throttle starting out at low speeds, probably because of the H1's gearing though. These days I have a set of swamper SSR's and I miss the PJ's. The SSR's dont wear for sh!t, they dont balance at all, dont ride nearly as well as PJ's, and are down right f'ing scary on wet rainy roads.

[ssgharkness020147]

Oh and I forgot. I got 30,000 miles out of my PJ's, they were still on the truck when I sold it and did have some life left in them.

Yeah, I posted some pics of it a while back CP. I'll throw another up for you.

Nice tires and rig!

[ssgharkness020147]

I DO NOT miss that truck. I did like the color combo, and the open top was kick ass during the summer. But, it was ALWAYS something with that truck. In the two years that I owned it and the 30,000 miles that I put in it I never had anything major fail on it, but I still managed to spend 8400.00 dollars trying to bring it up to par. And still was nowhere near the end.
