How many will be trading in their 5 cylinder H3's for an Alpha?

I'll definitly trade up once the options and pakages are all worked out. The nasty freeway hills around here are killing the mpg anyways. Plus I get GMID, so I'll do what I did last time, just wait for the 0% financing and then the hit isn't nearly as bad. H3 V8 + GMID + 0% =

When I first saw the H3, on the road, I wanted it real bad! I spent six months researching it out and deciding what I wanted to incorporate in the truck order.
I'm glad I waited, because my truck was part of the end of '06 production, and being built in March 2006, I believe that my truck got all the corrected issues that were part of the initial production bugs.

That being said, I would buy the Alpha, tomarrow to get the bigger motor, but, after driving the H3 Adventure for a year now; I don't have any complaints about the I5. Sure it doesn't have the faster drop down gear for passing at highway speeds, but I drive it like a truck, so I didn't expect to have it.

Cost is some concern too because, I don't want to take a bath on the '06.

I think waiting for the production to start and watch its progress through the first year is a wiser choice for me.

Besides...
I can keep my '06 and have the original released model with the 3.5 liter motor, original door panels, and no child locks in the rear doors. It's more of a Utilitarian truck whick is exactly what I wanted. Not some soccer mom's Lux leased SUV.

Soccer mom's.

The stock cloth seats are ok but mine are showing pretty bad wear on the driver's side bolster. The seats are a pain on long trips. It's a main reason we take our Denali instead of the H3.

I for one will be glad for the lux interior. Adjustable heated seats are just what the doctor ordered for those long days in the saddle.

What about height adjustable cloth seats?

Hell, works for me!

I'm a leather fan though. I really like the wheat seats in the H2. I think the piping in the H3 seats is cheesy and too retro looking and a great way to make the seats tear up easier.
