You might try keeping these kinds of posts to yourself in the future, it makes you sound like a bad driver.

Spoken like someone who is afraid to get his Hummer dirty....

What's the matter, does the mud scare you?

Some of us use these vehicles for what they were designed to be used for.

I suspect that that commie sign hides a Yankee Honda Driving Democrat...

Can only assume you are talking to DEI here but have to say you are wrong. I have been with him when he got his H3 dirty

Captain, you have to admit that in your original post you wrote several contradictions .. as, everything shutting down ie: OnStar, but then you actually spoke to OnStar. (In your next post you wrote that you spoke to Hummer, not OnStar (??). You said that you fortunately had your door open... but how could that be if your interior was flooding? And, that you couldn't unlock the your door manually (??), but, that your door was already open. When someone sees just the written word and not what you THINK you are writing .. it can only be taken at face value. You're undestandably getting defensive, but know that some of the stuff you wrote just didn't jive at this end .. and you have to know that so many of the members who had responded to you ARE true, 'dyed in the wool', Hummer off-roaders who have gone through so many once in a lifetime experiences while wheeling. Good luck to you.

Second, you are right, when the on-star failed, I CALLED hummer support. They were the jerks who acted like I was an idiot for being offroad. Bull****.

Next, they said that any vehicle that was more than 20' off the edge of the road was not eligible for FREE towing. I was about 40' from the edge of the road. Bull****. Try 3 miles off the road and they were happy to come get me if I couldn't get it back on my own.


ALso, I HAVE the adventure package. Buying a Hummer without it would be like buying a vibrator for the wife and forgetting the batteries. Lockers and vibrators are both for one thing.

Sigh, I wish I had pictures, and should have, because my friend with the Durango chose to take pictures with his cell phone before pulling me out. Unfortunately they did not turn out. A likely story.

The repair list includes draining and replacing the fluids in the engine, transmission, brakes and diffs. Replacing the module under the passenger seat, as well as the passenger kick panel area. Replacing the wiring harnesses, one of which it looks like will have to come off the assembly line, since no dealership carries it yet. All b/c you don't know how to drive. Tist Tist.

I would love to say this will be my last posting of this kind, but due to my past episodes, I doubt it. Could we even get so lucky to have you leave now!?

By the way, I hate to ask, but what's an AE? Annoying Environmentalist?

Ergo the 1" of water on the left and 30" on the right. newly dug wouldn't be full of water, but what does newly dug have to do with steep sided? 1" of water on the left and 30" on the right doesn't equate to an interior full of water

Next, they said that any vehicle that was more than 20' off the edge of the road was not eligible for FREE towing. I was about 40' from the edge of the road. so, I'm guessing free towing is not for a vehicle in a driveway, parking lot, or even a grassy knoll How did they know you were 40' and not 20' off the road?

As far as brains, from the posts, I can tell that I have considerable more brains that many of the repliers. Fortunately, I doubt they own Hummers. They are probably happily driving they hybrid Hondas around town not realizing that the batteries in hybrids are far more dangerous to the environment that our Hummers will ever be. please excuse us if we don't take your word for that

ALso, I HAVE the adventure package. Buying a Hummer without it would be like buying a vibrator for the wife and forgetting the batteries. typical toyota owner, having to compensate for small penis syndrome

And as far as the locks, yes, I tried to manually unlock the doors, but could not seem to do so. The engine was also running until I was quickly pulled from the water by, (Turn red with embarrassment) a Durango. I opened the door, and put the H3 into park and everything shut off and locked up. O'tay. you tried to unlock the doors but they wouldn't. But you opened the door and put the H3 into Park???????? So, in this story, you would have gotten out through the window with the engine still running and the tranny still in Drive. But you were able to magically open the locked doors from the outside and put the still running AND IN DRIVE vehicle into park. K, gotcha

Sigh, I wish I had pictures, and should have, because my friend with the Durango chose to take pictures with his cell phone before pulling me out. Unfortunately they did not turn out.

The passenger seat was half-way under water (as well as the right side of the back seat) and I'm being told that the seat will only have to be cleaned, not replaced. doesn't add up with the 1" - 30" deally

The repair list includes draining and replacing the fluids in the engine, transmission, brakes and diffs. Replacing the module under the passenger seat, as well as the passenger kick panel area. Replacing the wiring harnesses, one of which it looks like will have to come off the assembly line, since no dealership carries it yet. should have left the wiring harness stuff off, that's just doesn't have any credibility

I would love to say this will be my last posting of this kind, but due to my past episodes, I doubt it. you're a schizo too?

just a quick question on this...if the left is 1" and the right 30" what is the side slope angle of this?? 29" difference over a couple of foot wide truck? any math wizards want to take this on? is the truck still standing?

i think the opening line is the only truth

looking quickly here, it seems like the passenger door and window are probably underwater...maybe this was the reason for the leak/water intrusion

Ok..At this point we shoulld start trying to guess who the AE is...

Anyone......????

how wide is it from inside the door to inside the door.

To make the slope about 60% or about 31 degrees it would need to be about 50 inches across.
