How much were those mud flaps and the Thule rack?

No, I've never been to one. With 5 kids including an infant it's been a logisitcal challenge to go anywhere.

I got the Thule rack for about $250 at G.I. Joes, the mud flaps for abut $70.00 at the dearlership. The mud flaps are easy to put on, I heard the dealership can charge up to $300.00 to do it.

I recommend going to the happening, it is lots of fun and they have experts there and they give away free hummer stuff.

Are the mud flaps for all four fenders? Also, is the Thule easy to get on and off? I ripped by kayak rack off my Yukon roof going into the Sea-Tac airport garage! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif

Can't fit a family of 7 in the H3. It's too far to take both cars. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

So I went to the dealership today and got the reservation with the passcode on it.

It looks to me that you need to reserve a room a minimum of two days. That is close to $400.00 at least. I really just want to go saturday.

Maybe if some hot chicks were going it would be worth it the other two days. My wife doesn't like to drive on the rocks with me so she is out.

What do you guys think?

I think they hinder themselves by making people stay at the lodge.

H3 Hummer
09-23-2005, 10:57 PM
I should have said, I think they hinder themselves by making people stay at the lodge or at least pay for the non-refundable reservation.

H3 Hummer
09-26-2005, 07:17 PM
cool. I think if I bunk with you I wouldn't be registered for the event and therefore can't drive.

I think I will register for one night. But I will take you up on the beer and getting rowdy.

Does your girlfriend drive on the trails with you? My wife hates it but may go and not drive with me.

H3 Hummer
09-27-2005, 06:43 PM
I register for 1 day today. I got the Patterson - loft (suite)

H3 Hummer

I think I can get my wife to just go to the campground. No way she will even drive with me or drive the truck.

She drove over those humps at Liberty, that was fun.

Will do or can do. Since Wannabe will be there in his H3 it Will do just about anything but what it can do is another story. From the last Hummer Happening I went to, the can surprised a lot of people.

Burnie
10-18-2005, 05:49 PM
More like what I'm willing to do with my H3. For instance, it CAN roll over, but I'm not planning on trying ;-)

H3 Hummer
10-19-2005, 12:34 AM
Yeah, I got ya. I don't plan on seeing if mine will float. I will have someone else try that first.

What color you have? Let me know if you are interested in playing some cards, we are staying in the cabins.

Burnie
10-19-2005, 05:10 PM
Yeah, I didn't order the flotation option, so I don't think I'll be trying that one.

I have a Victory Red with a matching hard spare tire cover, "Burnie" license plates. Look forward to meeting all of you.

H3 Hummer
10-19-2005, 08:13 PM
Victory red also with the luggage rack on top.

holy crap i didnt realize winthrop was so damn far away! i almost dont wanna go :P i guess when you ride there on your motorcycle it only takes one hour cuz you go like 200 mph, but its gonna be grueling in the h3.. i am only staying fri-sat too

H3 Hummer
10-20-2005, 01:38 PM
We could get to Canada a lot faster.

We will probably have to fill up once to get there and when we get there and again when we get back. Sweet!

Miguel, I don't know if our cell phones will work up there but if you want to bring your buddies and make havoc at the cabin I am staying at let me know.

4.5 hours from Woodinville with a quick gas stop.....doing the speed limit!

Verizon is the only cell service in the Wintrop area that seems to get coverage....

Enjoy your trip, our plans changed and we can't attend! Sounds like a great program.

I remember you two. I came over and spoke with you guys about how great your H3 was going to be. Remember? Didn't I pimp this site to you?

H3 Hummer
10-20-2005, 04:54 PM
Yeah, I thought that was you and yes you did give me the low down on this site. At that time I had only had the truck about a week.

I wasn't sure you were the same person because you were so respectful and polite in person. Just kidding. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Are you going to be at this one?

I can't leave until after 12:00 and then need to go to shoreline, but will be on the road hopefully by 1:00. Are you guys thinking about going Hwy. 2 or 20?
