I See An H3 In My Future
Yes, the time has come. My H2 lease is starting to go way over mileage, and I have to start thinking about the next vehicle
. I would finance my H2 out, but the rates are horrific, and it's out of warranty. H3's have some good stuff going on right now, like low financing and some rebates. I really don't want to get out of an H2, but I can't afford $1,000/month to finance one. And an H1 is out for the same reason I won't finance my H2 out--interest rates.
Then I thought I should buy an FJ, and we could all beat it up together!!! But then I realized I'd be a flaming homo and probably kill myself.
But maybe an LR3 would be good... Nah, that would also equal flaming homo.
(Jeep never even entered my mind...)
So, I have decided that an H3 is probably where I will end up. I like it off-road (I had about a 7 month test drive...
), the turning radius is nice, and it's a little better on mileage. Plus my insurance won't be so high.
However, I would really love to be in an SUT, but I'm afraid that will probably have to wait, unless someone knows of any killer deals, or some rich chicks that might like to be kind to me.
Comments?

Don't be ashamed. A lot of guys make the same decision when a real off-roader is unaffordable.

Re: I See An H3 In My Future
I own a H3 due to budget but at least it is a Hummer. Buy the H3 Aubs, join the Hummer Club and come to Durango event Sept 18th. need some peps with character there so i don't get board talking to my brother-in-law the whole time.
Connie, did you buy the postitute for maury?

Re: I See An H3 In My Future
After wheeling today, I realized a Hummer is the only way to go. Anything else would have been killed by lack of armor, or ground clearance, or traction systems.

Re: I See An H3 In My Future
Why not just stop paying for your H2. Keep it locked up at night, chain a pitbull to it, or if you have to go out, turn your wheels real sharp next to the curb or other vehicles. Watch some repomen tv shows for more tips.

Re: I See An H3 In My Future
Well, I don't know. I might be too much of a freak for you H3'ers.
Besides, this super-hardcore LR3 video just got my hard:

The dealer close to me is offering a 489 a month for 39 months lease on SUT's right now plus there's a 3K incentive and I can get supplier pricing. I'm giving some serious thought to getting out of my H3 lease and getting one.

Hmm, very interesting. I figure an H3 finance would be about $500/month, maybe more. An H2 lease for that price is pretty good. Maybe you're putting a lot down, or have a good trade?

It's amazing. It was so smooth, and composed. Utterly British.
Really though, they need to get some better videos. These are really pathetic compared to even the silly ones of the Hummer.com site.

Re: I See An H3 In My Future
Has anyone seen the undercarriage of the LR3? It's a mess. Looks like they routed the exhaust pipe under the rear axle. And there are brake lines and cables everywhere, ready to snag on rocks, brush, or prairie dogs.
