How many Converts do we have?

Just curious as to what you have done with each of the trucks.

Off road?
Road trip?
service work?


BTW- I'm still waiting for that phone call that you're ready for a new H1 and you'b be happy to ship me yours.

The release of the H2 is what got me interested in HUMMERs, so my first truck was an '03. I enjoyed taking it to a few dealer-sponsored Hummer Happenings but nothing really serious. It had the typical bugs of a first year model, so I quickly began thinking about trading for a newer model.

About that same time, HUMMER came out with some sweet deals on leftover H1's, so I jumped on a new '02 H1 wagon. Problem is that it had been sitting around on the dealer's lot for more than two years and started having problems right away. I should have stuck them out, but I got nervous and dumped it off on the first buyer who came around (they are hard to find by the way). I still regret selling that truck. It really was the deal of a lifetime.

Anyhow, the SUT had just come out at that time, so I decided to give it a try. More HUMMER Happenings with it and a little more serious action at Windrock and Kinzalow's. It was fun and I loved the open back window, but I never used the bed and missed the rear space of the SUV, so I traded back in on a year-end deal for another H2.

I guess I just got bored with it after having one before and still missed the H1, so I made up my mind that I would buy another new H1 after the prices settled down -- then HUMMER announced the end of H1 production. I bit the bullet and bought the Alpha thinking I better get one while I could find exactly what I wanted.

I've had it now a year, and sadly I've done less with it than my other trucks -- but I'm hoping that will change. To be honest, I have thought of trading a few times, but I'm really trying to break that habit. Maybe another wagon would be nice... For now, anyway, it's a keeper.
