Try doing a screen snapshot and then pasting what is on the clipboard into another application (i.e. Photoshop, Word, PowerPoint, etc.) There should be a function key on your Windows PC labelled Print Screen, have the H3 on screen and then hit that Print Screen key. Then, open another application and use Control-V to paste it in. For Mac users, hit Apple-Shift-3 to capture the image and it appears on your desktop as a PDF document... if you're using OS X. Hope that helps!

Here's a few wanting a good home.

Here they come

[H3 Builder]

Let us know how the online thing works. I'd like to see how well this keeps track on the line.

[firm]

how do you do a screen snapshot?

[pimpdad]

No way. You are understandably like a kid on Christmas morning. We all will be in that boat when we're expecting our H3 to arrive. I myself have to wait a couple months but I'm already driving my wife nuts. Post pics when you get yours.

Great shot funpilot, I called a different dealer in North west NJ / Flemington Hummer on 5/18 just to see if they had any comming in, they said maybe second week of June, Now my dealer told me that they hoped to have a vehicle last week, but nothing. I have not bothered to check my oder #

The most depressing thing is that my dealer ordered mine with out the adventure package, but with everything else, so I want to wait and test drive it before I reorder another vehicle.
I ordered with both packs lux / adven to get the rear locking dif and 33's but I want the leather inside, I would take no leather but I will not take no locking rear and no 33's
so my wait will be the worst > becuase I will go to drive my H3, but probably pass to get the adventure pack > SUCKSSSSSSSSS

H3 builder....The pride you put into this car reminds me of the movie Gung Ho. You don't look like Micheal Keaton do you. I hope the H3 comes out better than that car at the end of that movie.

My educated best guess on the hold up:

If we presume that GM is doing this intentionally, then it is most likely that they want to get a minimum amount of stock on hand to distribute it equitably among the dealers on the roll out date and not just have it dribble in. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

That's part of the answer, but primarily the early builds that are now part of the product evaluation program fleet need to accumulate a certain number of miles to sort out any bugs that may pop up before GM will release the trucks to the dealers. So far I’ve only heard good things about them from the PEP drivers I know that are driving them.

[H3 Builder]

I don't know if they are waiting for an OK from GM that these are ready for shipping or what. I'll try to find out more tomorrow. In the mean time, they are multipling in the parking lots around the plant. Might have a pic tomorrow. By the way, one of your H3's is taking up my parking spot. In less Hummer has something special going on, You have to pick it up from a dealer.

[funpilot]

One other thing, if the probelms are truly minor, then it is imperative that they are fixed before they are shipped because they will not be addressed as admitted issues later...only the major ones are.

Ok, so call me a stalker, but I called Hummer today (May 9th) to see if my H3 had gone in to production yet. The guy that was there put me on hold and after a few minutes came back and said that my H3 had already been produced and was just awaiting shipment and no, they didn't have a shipment date. I found that strange since this was supposed to be the day that my H3 went into production, but alright, so maybe they got to it sooner.
But what I found even stranger is that the guy from Hummer said that he got this information by calling my dealership and speaking to the general manager who said that he tracked it on line.

I'm somehow not convinced that I was given accurate information.

Next time use a wide lens to give us the full
effect Takes twenty minutes just to pan right.

[oneworld]

Thanks Timgco, yes they said it would be no problem, but it just sucks, becuase I had my information correct but they did not have a clue, Originaly the salesmen told me that to get the 33 tires you had to order the chrome wheel package, I know the deal, it just sucks that my wait will be another month or so. But thank you for trying to help my pain.

[H3wannabe]

Drool, drool, drool.

[angelus]

Received an email yesterday evening saying that in Sherman Oaks they are scheduled to have one at the dealership around May 18th. I also called to see when to expect mine and customer service was very helpfull and said that mine would be in production the week of May 9-13th and I could call back at that time to hear about the progress, in line, of my H3.

You know, I think there are a number of us who should think about doing this.

By the way, where has everyone gone. Keep checking back for any new news and there just isn't much action here since yesterday. Is everyone sitting in the parking lots of their dealers waiting or what?

[killian]

I was curious and a little bored so I made some phone calls this morning. The first one was to Sewell Hummer in Dallas who said that they got one H3 in this morning and think that they may get more this afternoon.
The next call was to Davis in Albuqerque who said that they expect a shipment in the next couple of days.
I'm trying to track ETAs to Arizona so I also called Royal in Tucson. They don't have a clue and are hoping to see something by the end of the month.
My last call was to Hummer customer service. They told me that my order was in transit and it had left the Shreveport factory on the 17th.
I don't know what route they take or if they make any stops along the way but it's about 20 hours of drive time from door to door. It's been 48 hours as of now. Taking into consideration sleep, traffic, other stops, etc, I could maybe see my H3 by the first of the week.

I'm getting kind of obsessed here, maybe I should change my name to "H3 Stalker".
