Not sure, but I know it's minor. Just don't want little nagging things to be wrong. The last thing everyone would want is to have your truck at the dealer for something minor. I know, my truck, when new, I had to leave it at the dealer for 2 days for a oxygen sensor that wasn't calibrated right. So hold tight and it won't be long before youall will get them.

OK, and why can't we help by picking up our own trucks?

Builder....I am sure there are a number of people who would be willing to pick it up and take it to their dealers......

So after much pacing around my office I gave Hummer another call and asked for clarification. I spoke to a nice gentleman who said that my H3 was in fact finished on May 6th. (let's hope no one was hungover from Cinco De Mayo.) They're just waiting to ship now. Ok, I feel better.
But I still sound like Veruca Salt from Willy Wonka:
I want my H3 NOW!
Hmm...
Can I take factory delivery?

I didn't look at the pic close enough earlier and just noticed, THEY DELIVERED MINE TO THE WRONG DAMN DEALER!!!
So, any bets on who will win being the first here to take delivery?

The stuff they get on thier computer is not updated as if it is comming from the plant. The dealer looks at the same data base and it is not always correct. Sounds like you all are real close. Who will be the first H3 owner on the site?????

As a person who ordered early, I applaud GM's attempt to deliver the best truck they can. As a pilot, I know it is always best to find the problem on the ground (in this case, at the plant), so please tell everyone there that we prefer to get it right than get it early. Having said that, I will now swallow another handful of valium to keep me calm .....

As I recall, that is how I got the photo of the one I built too.

If you don't like one of those, there's probably one over in this lot!

Cheesy thought at 3 am, I guess I need some of Funpilot's Vitamin V:
While we have some time to kill before shipping we should set up a contest. Let's ask Builder to write some sort of secret message on a slip of paper and insert it into the glove box of several, random H3s. The first one to take delivery and find the message posts it here.
We may have to entice Builder with a bottle of Scotch....

Is it possible to pick the unit up at the factory or near-by?

Still no change, still on hold. Shouldn't be too long. They will be shipped by truck, train, and boat in some cases.

I ordered mine about 6 weeks ago and my dealer told me it would be sometime in July. The wait is killing me. May have to go get a 03' H2 to get me by.

I'm in.
Builder, I appreciate all the info you have been able to provide us with. Have you heard any updates on the either of the blue color choices? My dealer was telling me today that they are being told that it will be a year before they are available.

funpilot, that info about the "glitch"
is probably Top Secret info,
both before and after the fix...
I'll be Germany for the rest of this month
so I don't mind the H3 delay at all!
Not many SUVs in Germany, but lots of
very fast and solid cars on the AutoBahn.
It would cost more to rent a VW Touareg
than this Mercedes SLK, for example:
(Which would you prefer - VW Touareg or Hummer H3?)
Guess how much gasoline costs in Germany right now --
EUR 1.20 for 1 litre
= EUR 4.54 for 1 gallon
= $5.85 per gallon! |
