I bought a new H3, on 7/30/05, at Hall Hummer, Virginia Beach, VA.
It was a very pleasant experience. Hall had a wide selection and the sales rep, Terrence, the GM, Chuck, and the F&I mgr, Tony, were very nice.
My wife and I love our new H3. Don't beleve anyone who says it is underpowered for the highway. Compared to what? A Corvette? http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
Limited visibilty is the nature of the beast. We did some mild trail riding and I dented the rear bumper, by backing into a tree stump. ( Maybe, that's why I should have gotten out to check or had a spotter. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_redface.gif ).
The good news is that it only cost $400 ( parts and labor ) to replace the rear bumper. The body shop said the design is excellent. They only had to remove 3 bolts to put on a new bumper.
I know, if I were a true off-roader, I would have banged out the dent myself. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif What can I say? Now my H3 is brand new, again. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif
