Well, I can't believe I gave in and got my fiance an H3. I just sold my military humvee (with a plate that read 'WUTZA H2') and I was VERY MUCH against the H3 initially. To my surprise I was actually quite impressed. GM really did a nice job, especially for this price range. The agility is awesome and the flexability is impressive. The ONLY thing that I don't like is that puny 3.5L.....why do it?? I have no idea! It definitely won't save much on gas. I would have much rather seen a V6 (like the ones you see in Nissan Xterras). About 40-50 more horses and 60-75 lb-ft of torque. Anyway, now to my question;

Does anyone know how to pull out the stock CD player? Also, I want to get rid of the double-DIN and run a single-DIN flip-out monitor. Anyone know of a company making these adapter plates?

Any help is appreciated.

You're good.

GMPartsGuy is right it is about the maintenance; however I think he does more maintenance on his H1 than I do on my H2 and we run the same trails for the most part.

H2s and H1s keeping up with each other. The H1 has slightly better specs., but in my experience there is very few places you can get an H1 where you can’t get an H2.

It took the H1 boys 16 hours to run Poison/Golden/Gold Bar with 12 trucks and a professional guide and it took 9 hours to get 9 H2s trough the same trials with no guide (and no one in the group with prior experience on those trails). This anomaly was caused by mechanical failure from what I understand, but maybe we just drive faster Okay, I'll give you that (t/case and 2 axleshafts)

RMST, I read some of your posts and as other have commented you do whine like a little girl a lot.

Fissed!

That's a picture from the Lynch Hummer website. Haven't set up the photo session for my truck yet. I'll get right on that.

I know RMST can be a nice guy, but I'm baffeled by his original comment. Just isn't the RMST I've talked to?

Are you using a picture of an Iraqi military officer to represent yourself?

Dirty,
Your boyfriend did a good job of holding the camera steady while filming your avatar. Admirable work. I'll bet he walked with a limp after that. ALthough....I guess he might not have had to.

We've always said that all along.

"Why buy an H1 when you can have an H2 or H3 that does the exact same thing?"

Whenever I see an H1 I always laugh and think how sorry I feel for the poor sap that spent all that money and they still have a hard time following the H2. They look ridiculous driving around downtown parked in front of the Starbucks all spotless. They're also a nightmare to maintain and breakdown too often.

Smart move in getting an H3.

H1 = Blinged H2
