After I visited the dealer the first time, I was really just looking. But after the test track and some time with a top-notch salesperson who did a fantastic job of helping me determine my needs, I was sold. Then I got on the Hummer site and built exactly what I wanted. Faxed it to the saleslady, who in turn searched lots within about 300 miles and gave me some options. Still not the exact H3, but pretty darn close.
Low and behold, about 3 weeks later on a Sunday morning, I noticed that they had the one that I wanted hidden on the back lot (had just been unloaded). Wouldn't you know that I got a call that week (they kept it on the back lot for 3 days until I could get there) letting me know that they had one that I might be interested in. They were right. I bought it. And I love it.
In my area, the local paper usually does a story a couple of times a year that has the total vehicles sold in our area by month. Historically, February is a slow month (after Christmas and right before taxes, with Valentine's Day in between!), so they should really bend over backwards to either find or deal with you on whatever they have on their lot.
Good Luck. You won't regret your decision.
