I got lucky today. Hall is having an HH tomorrow celebrating the opening of the new building. I was told they'd have an H3 so I took a chance and drove by. It was there and Chris was kind enough to let me take some pics and crawl around.
I like it. So did the three people walking up the sidewalk who stopped and asked questions.

I love all the chrome, especially the gas cap!
I think many people (ignorant) will not be able to tell the difference between this and the H2. Especially from head on.

Now here's a pic of the seats. They are cloth, which I don't think you can get with the chrome package, and feel extremely durable. Another case of building an attention getter.

I think it must be a preproduction model, the underhood area looks to be in two colors.

Thanks for the update about the need of steps co-pilot. Man, we are all waiting to get one and they are crushing the first ones we get to see upclose.

You're so little you look like you need a booster seat and blocks taped to the pedals.
Ken... looks like you'll be a 2 Hummer household soon. But tint her windows so she doesn't scare any children |

I hadn't noticed before but what are the two circles at the bottom of the center stack. Looks like 12V power outlets to the right and maybe rear wiper control to the left. Doesn't have a rear wiper though does it?

This is some photo enhancement. I am sure Ken could email me the full sized image and I could extrapolate even a better representation, but no pixels were added, just some enhancingto better show the wiper arm. So this should show some proof of the wiper arm.

Didn't think they came with rear wipers. Since it isn't a rear wiper control, what is that at the bottom left of the center stack? And what is between that and the 12v outlets? I believe every photo I have seen the shifter is in the way.

Thanks Paragon. In the photo from the right rear it does look like you can make out a possible wiper blade sticking out from behind the spare. Does anyone know what that is between the rear wiper control and the 12v outlets?

Hey guys,
Ken is @ the dealership and wanted me to relay that the wheels on that particular H3 are 33" w/ chrome which is not factory or an option. The aforementioned 2 switches are blanks and the dealers at this point are unaware of the particular funtion.
Funpilot-
They have viewed the forum ( got a giggle )and said that everything is way cool and they understand. They said if you are interested to come check it out today 5/17 prior to 5:30pm. There is a Hummer Happening/ new showroom opening @ 6:00. Trust me the guys up there are genuine when they say that. 
I will check the darn steps or ladder tonight and let you know.  |
