It has been moved around the lot every once in a while. But I'd say every couple months (at most). I drive by to see if they have anything new once in a while and they're always in the same place. Same truck next to the same truck. Right now, it's the only adv pkg vehicle on the lot.

Re: Any thoughts on buying H3 sitting for 9 months
Just to clearify, you do get the $2,000 rebate and the 60 months 0% on a H3.
Anything on the lot older than March 1 is getting a $2,000 aged inventory discount.

I say that's what the warranty is for. If it's the truck you want jump on it

really. As far as I know, I currently only have the $2000 or 0% deal. Can't do both. I haven't heard about an aged inventory rebate.

Re: Any thoughts on buying H3 sitting for 9 months
it would be extremely difficult for a car to sit on a lot for 9 months and not move. We often rearrange the lot, move cars to get the behind them, test drive, update inspection stickers..etc...many reasons to move the vehicles.

Just to truly clarify 0% is not stackable with any Bonus Cash out there. There was a direct mail piece ($1000.00 if mailed to you or anyone in yourhousehold) that can be combined with the 0%.
And the rebate money for vehicles invoice before March 7th is for H2's.

Re: Any thoughts on buying H3 sitting for 9 months
Wouldn't the fact that some early build models had some factory defects such as the lapping compound in the rear diffs among other things that have been documented here, be a good reason to go with a later build model?

Re: Any thoughts on buying H3 sitting for 9 months
Warranty starts day of purchase (not build date). Issues such as above will surface and be covered during the warranty period.

I realize that but it's still a hassle having to take the vehicle in for warranty work. It would be a whole lot better if the issues didn't surface.

Well ya never know till ya get it. You might get a deal or you might get a tird. But, that is the chance you take whenever you buy any vehicle. At least from my experience's reliability is never guaranteed.

Sitting on the lot for 9 months? Wow, Timgco buys and sells 3 or 4 Hummers in that amount of time.
