Went over to Sewell Dallas for the H3T preview earlier today.

I have to say, after getting up close and personal, I am really
digging this little truck. I now have thoughts of a nice little
black number with a V-8, front locker, cast iron front diff,
sporting 35?s and a bevy of off-road accoutrements.

It looked a lot more proportional in person than it does in the publicity shots
or than it did on the turntable at the auto show. I could see Hummer
selling a LOT of these trucks.

Thought I?d share a few pics:













Not much was changed on the interior. New rearview mirror with integrated
backup camera monitor, re-located trac control switch to accommodate the
front locker control, and a nifty little detent in the rear doors for holding
a drink and miscellaneous stuff?..

The compartments in the bed are nice but rather smallish?not sure if they are
waterproof. Looks like those rails can accommodate all manner of aftermarket
racks and carriers.

Gunner,
Nice post!
The H3T does seem to grow on you...

Not certain the recent announcement will help.The H3T with its options has what it takes to be a winner!

Excellent pictures! You could have a second career as a photographer! I like the spare tire tucked up underneath. The spare behind the gate on the H2SUT looks cool, but makes it awkward and impossible sometimes to open the gate in the garage. It doesn't look like it has the air compressor in the back like the H2 with air suspension/adventure has. I find myself using the compressor in the bed all the time on my H2 - a worthwhile option I would think for the H3T. When I had my H3 I bought one of those 12v accessory plug in air compressors and it was so slow compared to the one on the H2. Does the window go down and the back fold down to extend the bed into the cab like the H2SUT? Overall, I think Hummer did an excellent job on this.

It definitely looks better in person. It's actually kind of growing on me too. With a lift, it might even be a decent wheeler.

Spare underneath is okay, until you want to take it wheeling. First thing I would do is move it to the bed. The H2 only has the compressor if you have air suspension. And if you get a decent portable compressor like a ViAir, it will be much faster than the H2's. The H3T has a separate bed, like a normal pickup - not integrated like the H2 SUT. So no pass-through.

Nice catch. I didn't even notice that.

The one they had in Moab had the silver colored bumper, like the rest of the '08s. But the pics that were posted of the H3T in LV look like it has the black bumper also. I hope they go back to that style. Looks a lot better.
