No H3 for me :-(

After I visited the dealer the first time, I was really just looking. But after the test track and some time with a top-notch salesperson who did a fantastic job of helping me determine my needs, I was sold. Then I got on the Hummer site and built exactly what I wanted. Faxed it to the saleslady, who in turn searched lots within about 300 miles and gave me some options. Still not the exact H3, but pretty darn close.

Low and behold, about 3 weeks later on a Sunday morning, I noticed that they had the one that I wanted hidden on the back lot (had just been unloaded). Wouldn't you know that I got a call that week (they kept it on the back lot for 3 days until I could get there) letting me know that they had one that I might be interested in. They were right. I bought it. And I love it.

In my area, the local paper usually does a story a couple of times a year that has the total vehicles sold in our area by month. Historically, February is a slow month (after Christmas and right before taxes, with Valentine's Day in between!), so they should really bend over backwards to either find or deal with you on whatever they have on their lot.

Good Luck. You won't regret your decision.

The two whiners have only three posts total and haven't been back since. They joined ONLY after not getting what they wanted in what they believed was a timely fashion.

I smell some stinky ass BS on this thread.

I don't believe them. They're full of crap.

Ken P – I sincerely hope it wasn’t my post that you are refering to. I removed it because I wouldn’t want my first post to be considered “whining”. I did have problems getting my H3 ordered. I shared my story because I wanted Jerry to know he isn’t alone when it comes to having issues with the dealership. I also wanted him to know its all worth it in the end…I love my H3 and I like the service dept at that same dealership.

With that being said, I have enjoyed coming to this forum and reading through it every morning for the past few months. I’ve found a new hobby in my H3. I’m not one to start a “welcome me” thread, just wanted to quietly join in. Everyone needs to start somewhere.

KenP,

Haven't been back ?

I guess you didn't really read the thread.

I was not complaining about the wait, but that the dealer said the order “disappeared” after a 2 month wait, of coarse you would have known that if you had read my post.

Whatever, you are entitled to your opinion.

if you have to wait a couple of months, you might as well wait for the 2007 model they will be coming out late Spring. But no Shadow Green color.

[aggiehummer...er]

You can't even order 2007 H3s until late April.

When the H3 first came out, there were lots of constraints. Now there are none. PM me with your ZIP code and what you're looking for and I can help you out about finding a vehicle.

Guys I jioned this forum for information, and I must say that it is great place for that and a lot of fun/. I ordered my H3 in April before they were onsale and before the H3 site was actually up to full info and speed, the members of this forum engaged my questions, and I was impressed at how much more information I had then my dealer. IN CLOSSING MY DEALER SUCKED AND WAS NOT HUMMER MATERIAL > unlike all the other stories that I have heard here in the forum about these great dealers. I am sure that they are out thier becuase the hummer is a strong brand name with a different kind of buyer. BUT IT WAS THE WORST CAR BUYING EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE. But I love my truck.

OH BUY THE way check out the H3X on the Hummer site.
