Well it was bound to happen. Thank goodness it was'nt my H3. But a unfortunate parent who let the 17 year old daughter take it out on a spin only to run a red light and collide with a Ford Expedtion. I was told no one was hurt badly. But the poor H3 will probably head to the salvage yard with only 700 miles logged on the odometer. Oh man! let this be a warning to you parents out there with teenage kids. Let them have the AMC Pacer or the stationwagon if they want to go out on a spin.

That is such a damned shame.

Here are a few more photos of the poor lil H3 that barely got to enjoy life
It makes you wonder how your H3 will hold up in a frontal inpact? Note: I did'nt ask the auto body guy at the Hummer dealership how fast the 17 yr old girl was driving the H3 at the time of impact.

You can bet that OnStar was notified after these babies blew! Thank goodness for that feature!

what happend to the rear driver side door? a rhino hit it or something?

We know these pics will make some gay ass jp site by morning.

Can we get more details, or a link? Hope the girl is ok.

Heres a side view. I wonder what salvage yard this Hummer will end up at? I would sure like those rims, and roof racks! I know, I know I'm a vulture, I admit it. I'm just glad that I was told everyone was O.K. and all persons involed walked away. But poor poor lil H3.

Glad to know no one was hurt.

I'd love to buy that H3 and build a mud racing truck, hey FLYINGBADGER2006, if you know if the H3 is for sale AS IS please let me know! I'll exchange the chrome wheels for your stock wheels if you want

As far as links or more details. These pics were taken by me today, while I was getting my oil changed and tires rotated (8980 miles) and I was leaving the dealership when I saw this poor lil H3 across the lot. I instantly made a bee-line to the damaged H3 when the estimator/auto body guy was walking away from it and I just asked a couple of questions as he was going back into the building. Perhaps the H3 did it's job by absorbing the impact to take the major blow away from the passengers and its driver. So there you have it. A first, for this H3 forum site. Too bad it had to be a not-so-good first.

Here is the last shot of the drivers side rear fender.

What kind of idiot would let their kid drive a nice vehicle like this. The poor little Hummer had a short life because of someones stupidity, what a shame.

It appears to me that there was major frontal impact on this vehicle as we can all see. But note how perfect that the passenger area held up to the force being delivered to the rest of the frame. It does suck this beauty was in an accident, however think of the upside, if the girl was in that AMC pacer (mentioned earlier) she might not have been so fortunate. Nice work GM engineers...

C.

I cant wait to get one !!

I agree - the cabin looks MINT!! Newer trucks/cars are made to take the bullet for us humans...looks like this one did that job very well. Poor little H3 though..

17 year old girl was driving so the odds are high that you guys are correct.

What makes you think that this is even noteworthy? It was an accident, **** happens.

Luckily no one was injured, which is the main thing.

It was an accident, that's all. Everyone survived. And crap, look how many people are saying "poor little H3." It's a truck for crap's sake. It doesn't have a soul. Sounds like some people are taking their vehicles a little too seriously.

first dibs on the wheels and all other chrome ****!

LOL! Wannabe! Damn, that's cold!

HOLY COW!! Where was this taken?

No I called dibs first, and besides I know where the H3 is located. Woot!!!! And yes cars are a passion to some people and so what if we take our H3 with a little personal pride. Yeah I know a truck has no soul. But its our trucks, our H3's and we have souls and our cars are an extention of who we are. O.K. I get off the soapbox now. I know it sounds a lil mushy. Oh well.

HOLY COW!! Where was this taken? WISCONSIN

All that matters is everyone was ok. Again - glad to see the H3 come out saving lives.

Somebody's crazy... Like I said, it's a piece of metal with no soul. It's not an extension of a person either. It's a piece of finely crafted and well engineered metal, but metal nonetheless. I mean, honestly, who the hell actually believes that a car is an extension of a person. That's someone who's taking this Hummer thing wayyyy too seriously. I bet these people even name their cars. A little scary people...

Lock me up too Im nuttier than a Christmas fruitcake on the Pee Wee Herman Show!
C'mon Joe don't be a Party pooper!
I should tell you that I builded a sacred alter to my H3 Hummer God and I give burnt offerings to it everyday and chant whimsical songs from Foghat and Minni Vannilli while wearing my pink fluffy rabbit slippers and my pith helmet from the jungleboat ride from Disneyland!

oh oh ok

RAAARRRR!!!!!

Glad everyone was safe enough. Hopefully, the young girl and other passengers (if there were any) have learned of the situation.

Not to pickout items, why not look at making the cabin a trailer sort of thing. Empty it out, add a tongue and go camping. Make the tub a 'tear drop' camper. That would be really cool.
I see a sunroof also.

Hmm Don't know if I would call it a total it is in pretty good shape considering what it went through.

further convinces i made a good choice!
