Default Hummer: Please Please Please Give Us a Manual Trans in the H3 Alpha!!!
I am hearing rumors that the H3 Alpha will have a 5.3L V8. PLEASE put a manual transmission, preferrably a 6-speed, in the H3 Alpha. Follow the Corvette group's lead with the Z06. Currently, GM doesn't have any SUVs with manual transmissions with any performance. GM needs something to be competitive from an acceleration standpoint with the manual trans versions of the Xterra and FJ Cruiser, both of which do 0-60 in the 7's. It is also an opportunity for Hummer to get itself on the map with the only V8 powered SUV in the US with a manual transmission. Hummer would have the entire market to itself!

How about it Hummer?

Michael
