Re: Original Owners ?
Still have mine which was purchased fall of 2005 and it has 105k miles. I still really, really like it and would wish some GM marketing folks would still consider a GMC H-series for H3/H4. There is nothing between a big Tahoe and the new-minivan(traverse) these days.

Re: Original Owners ?
Recently got rid of mine at the end of Sept. Had it since Oct. 05 right after we got back from our honeymoon. It had 82k miles, but just seemed to be one issue after another in the past year or so.
Figured with the prices where they were, having just about every seal/gasket go in the past year or 2, and the fact that I needed to replace the tires...it was a good time to sell. Though I would say that I had the factory offroad tires, and 82k miles on them (would def. have bought the same tires if I was keeping it).
Was really sad to clean it out for the last time, but knew it was for the best.
Never forget the times I went through and over feet of snow.
Wish you all luck!

Holy sh"" fstop! I hate to see all the veterans leaving the fold! Sorry to see one of the most knowledgeable if not the most, H3 veteran leave. Thanks for all the insights and explanations during the H3's early years. I'm still pis**d at GM for what they did to the Hummer brand. Happy trails!

Re: Original Owners ?
Haven't been here in awhile but saw this thread on top, still running my June '05 Boulder Gray 05/2005 build at about 189,000 KM so far. Overall has been a rock solid vehicle with a few things: recently replaced the thermostat, before that, on second set of tires, been through a couple of sets of brakes (always thought they were a bit undersized for the job since day one) and the only major issue was the infamous cracked cylinder head that through an engine code about 10 minutes after the warranty expired - service dept cut a deal on that though...
Oh, and on fourth windshield

Re: Original Owners ?
Still have my 06 Lux purchased in Oct 05. I have 76000 miles on it no major issues still running strong. I have replaced the battery, thermostat, tires, front drive shaft (probably some abuse I gave it)

Re: Original Owners ?
Although I bout my 2006 when it was about 2 years old, I still feel like the original owner because it was part of their GM executive vehicle fleet... SOOOO... since it did not leave "gm" until I bought it, I am kind of the first owner! LOL.....

Re: Original Owners ?
If GM kept a vehicle for two years in the fleet, it was not part of the executive fleet that was driven by executives; it was part of service engineering and was held for test purposes. Heck, I might have managed the techs who tore it apart.
