I ordered my adventure pkg. w/ manual trans. on june 4th.
I have not been told of any delays or probs. w/ my order.
I hope this rumor is b.s. I am expecting delivery in 2-3 weeks. (fingers crossed) JP'S-H3

Well I called my salesman today and he gave me the bad news.
the 5-spd. manual has been recalled. ****! delivery was only 2-3 weeks away. now how long do I have to wait to get my H3?
The salesman is going to call me tomorrow with the low-down. ****! JP'S-H3

Whether or not there are problems with the manual trans, I can't day; however, it is against Federal law for a vehicle to be returned to the plant for repairs after it has been manufactured and shipped. So, if a dealer says all have been returned to the plant for repairs, he is full of it.
They can be returned to specified GM locations for repair or trans replacement.

YO H3ERS!
I talked to my salesman again and he said that it's not a recall, it's a constraint on the 5-spd. still possibly holding up my delivery date (and yours). I will find out more info on friday from HUMMER. JP'S-H3

Actually a recall would be better than a constraint. A recall means that yoyu would get the thing and have to ahve something fixed. A constraint is politically correct lingo for "they are not shipping at this time". IMHO

i heard of delays like 2-3 months ago but nothing after that.
well, whatever the delay reasons are, the manual tran is well worth it. i've had my H3 for 3 weeks & the manual is a blast if you like manuals. definitely fun, but it does give you a lower max trailer weight rating, so if that's important i'd check into that.

first major upgrade: swap head unit out for a Clarion VRX755VD DVD media station, and Clarion iPod cable.... allowing for true digital connection & screen imitates the iPod screen & allows full access to playlist, etc. instead of limiting you to only 6 playlist (emulating a 6-disc cd changer). i was going to go the cheaper route & purchase a ipod adapter box for the factory stereo, but it uses the cd changer plugin & i still want to use cd's & other reason: no one even has H3 listed on compatibility lists on most stereo websites.
