its kinda funny you said that, My husband is very smart about trucks-always has worked on his own (379 Pete and Chevys) and I get all my info about my truck here and then I act like i Know so much when questions arise in our group of friends about my H3. Ive caught my husband giving me a strange look the other day day when I replied to a guy who had a question about the Vortec motor in the H3's (and i was right!) anyway i had to make a very sudden stop the other day and and my husband was talking **** in the passenger seat and i looked at him and said "stops on a dime and gives you 9 cents back" I thought he was going spill his beer he was laughing so hard and then he teased me all night with the comment. I pay very close attention to this forum to stay educated.

Got mine at the same dealer as GotSand. They give out the tire covers since it has their name on it.

You mean this thing? Ask Dennis. It looks like a Souvenir Canadian hockey trophy.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

That handle is for the techs. When the kids refuse to get out of the truck when it's in for service, the tech pulls the handle, which is really a release pin, and the kids pop out the windows.

Seriously, try it with your dog sometime.

I could make some wise arse remark, but I won't. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

The handle is attached to your fuel tank. Hummer crazy is close. It is used to hold the tank if it requires removal. The shield comes off to remove the tank.

Hey trading:

You can get the same tire cover (without the dealer advertising) here (http://www.h2parts.com/ADVN_Site/WebPagesUS/detail.htm&&2cJBzn0obDuox2NvxMpoLGxolobo24TaT_la6XTaWa). That's where I got mine from. My H3 didn't come with a tire cover and I didn't want to buy one from my local dealership since I didn't buy my vehicle from them.
