Original Owners ?

[greekbkfst]

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.

I'm an original owner. I own a black 2006 with the luxury package and fully loaded. I bought it in September 2005 and it has 107,000 miles. It's been trouble free for the most part. I hate the faded black plastic which is my only complaint. I use back to black and other similar products however and it seems to work well.

Overall no major complaints. I honestly want a Jeep Grand Cherokee but will try to hold out for the 2014 model. Until then it's me and the ole' H3. She's given me a lot of memories!

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!

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

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)

[BforBRAD]

Hi everyone, never posted a lot, but I still have my H3 40,000 miles. Bought the end of October 2005. Changed the brake pads last year and the original battery just crapped out this week : (

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.....

[f5fstop]

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.

Just signed BC I'm stumped about mirrors says last time I signed in was 2008. Got my 2006 yellow adv in Aug 2005 now 80,000 miles I literally still smile when I get in my Hummer. Only problems first six months Amp went. Now the sprockets on my driver seat motor slipping bad with in ten minutes seat would bottom out. Other than that I'd say it was money well spent

[blindzebra]

Still rocken the alpha 08. Only 71k on it still.

[zx1100]

Still have ours since '07. 112K miles and still going strong. Replaced radiator last year and both front hubs will be replaced this weekend. Other than that it's been great! Oh, also replaced misc control unit lights that burned out.
