Default Re: Things I learned and miss about owning a HUMMER

The H3 is a great vehicle. Mine took me from the Midwestern US to Dawson in Yukon territory without a single problem except a broken headlight from rocks for the vacation of my life in 2005. I averaged 18.1 mpg for close to 6000 miles round trip. They were new then and everywhere I went in the Yukon and Alberta it drew a crowd. When they were doing road construction west of Whitehorse into Haines, the "road boss" used my beautiful Shadow Green Metallic for the Follow Me vehicle (sign hung over the rear spare tire) and rode with us for the 28 miles in the back seat over mud and rock and he said he loved it and had to have one! There's a picture of my H3 leading the vehicles through some nasty mud and rock on another part of that same Yukon road if you search late summer 2005 posts. Driving the H3 through Kluane National Park in the Yukon rates right up there with the highlights in my life. A national park where you drive all day and don't see another soul and the scenery was so incredible it takes your breath away!! I love my H2 now and can't imagine driving anything but a Hummer, but there are things I loved about the H3 that I miss sometimes. I loved the cloth seats, the mileage, the interior design, and the offroad and snow capability was incredible.
