who all is in the one year club?
 
one year of ownership? i got 15k miles on mine almost, and i love it more now then i did when i bought it. mine has been in for service
1 to fix a loose tie rod end
2 to replace a shot body mount
3 to replace transfer case
4 to fix a rattle
5 to fix a rattle
6 to fix a rattle
7 to fix a rattle

good thing we got a waranty. ill prolly sell it in the next 2-3 years but while i got it im gonna use it. anyways im still really happy with it. i realized i was buying a first model year vehicle, and hopefully by 09 they will have the window/seat controls in a better place, controls on the stearing wheel, more power, better running gear, and just be all around more refined.

2 more months for me!!! i took delivery last august and now have 8200 miles. i haven't been to the dealer one time yet, except for the time i flew back there and picked up some extra crap for the truck. i have had a few rattles and the "serv 4x4" light comes on a couple times every hundred miles or so. their is a local dealer about ready to open here soon. i can't wait until i can have a pro look at the differential and the acuator. there is a local gm dealer here, but they have a pretty poor track record. i didn't want any experimentation to happen with my vehicle!!!

i love the truck and some of you may hate me for writing this, but i really think my 95 bronco is way more tough on the wash-boards and beaches. that thing has just been pounded down here and no problems. i hit a decent sized hole in the road on sunday going about 40 in the hummer and the noise from the front end was god-awful. inspected it and no apparent damage though.

i think when i do the torson adjustment and move up to 35x12.5's, i will feel more cushion and forgiveness in the roads around here.

Hasn't been a year but have had it 4 1/2 months and turned over 5K miles on the way to work this morning. Other than a minor problem with the sunroof right after I left the dealership on the night of delivery I have only had to have it in for the marker lights and an oil change. It has now been about a 1 1/2 months since they last worked on the marker lights and still know wind issues. Crossing fingers but I think the got it right that time :)

I got mine 6-03-06. 21k miles and it's been to the deal a bunch but we won't discuss that because they finally fixed it correctly in January and it's not been back since that time.

I am currently deciding between ordering a 07 H3, buying a new 06 H2 or a used 03 - 04 H1.

Really want the H1 but we'll see.

It'll be a year on 7/9. Just under 17K miles and a lot more to come in the next couple months. :D

For me 1 year on 7/2. 2 minor warranty problems so far at 19K miles. I'm pleased with overall quality.

I think I am a little over a year now. I have almost 13,000 miles and haven't had any problems except TPM, and OnStar. Well, I have had broken things but they were my fault - blown tire, tire valve, tree scratches, hi-lift jack falling down, broken windshield, rock in windshield, battery going dead, mirror falling off. I am really happy with the H3 - some things are still designed odd but they are little things. My H3 is tore up a little but I like it that way because I don't worry as much going down the rough trails.

I will have my H3 1 year on 7-23-06 7000 miles. The only problem I had was the amplifer went the first week I bought it. I had a tire issue today which I am going to sart a trend on. I think GM did a great job for a first year model.

i have been thinking along those same lines . i think when the 08 comes out i will look for a 07 demo to pick up , should get a pretty good deal by then i hope.

so whats the best colors for 07 ? too bad i cant get another green one :( may have to do a desert tan :cool:
