BEST SUV EVER!

The H3 is a collector item that is not only fun to drive,but looks cool.The 3.5L in-line 5 is a proven engine that has plenty of power,ver reliable,& you have to watch your speed because you will be at 100 mph cruising without even knowing it.I feel like I am driving a luxury tank & it is rugged & durable,but inside the cabin it is silent & smooth with great style.The fuel economy is actually pretty good for such a heavy 4x4 that if keep up with service,use synthetic fluids,& run high octane fuel from a name brand station,it improves fuel economy & performance.Hummer is the Rolls Royce of 4x4,where there is no place it can't go,stylish in town & the Lion off the road.It is the King of SUVs.

We started with the H2 and love the beast.!! Definite mans truck. Then bought the '06 H3 Adventure Pkg. in 2009 from dealer for my nurse wife (white of course). It was one owner used with 120K miles when purchased. As a visiting nurse she needed dependable able to go anywhere in all kinds of PA weather and the H3 has never disappointed. We still have it to this day Feb. 2017 with 212 k mi. and is running strong. I guess we got a good one !! We love it and I'd buy another. It has pulled the boats, jetskis, RV, and many trailers with ATV's. Sorry to hear all the complaints and dissatisfaction, but I'll take another H3 any day, get outta my way.! Tony in PA.

The HUMMER H3 is the single most capable and superior real-world SUV ever devised by mankind. Originating from military combat vehicles, the H3 fits on trails the H1 and H2 are too big for. The H3 has everything a Jeep Rubicon has, and has everything a Jeep Rubicon doesn't have, and all for the same price and gas mileage. Don't get me wrong, I like Jeeps- I've driven them for decades. I get the "Jeep thing". Most H3 drivers do - we've been there and done that. But if Jeepers ever tried the "HUMMER THING", they'd never go back. It's the "Jeep Thing" on steroids, complete with stealing your girlfriend and not spilling my drink all over the leather while off-roading in style and comfort.

Not for racing

We purchased our H3 after a lot of homework. We were apprehensive concerning all the complaints about the H3 being underpowered. We have owned V-8 powered vehicles mostly and were afraid to give up that power availability. We realized that though the H3 has only an I-5 cyl., it is geared low. The H3 does just fine with the equiped engine, as long as your intentions are not to race the vehicle. We are very happy with the performance and gas mileage. It's just fun to drive. We don't miss our V-8.

(Note mine is automatic,online drop box only gave one option.)The style & design of the H3 is a head turner,it is unique,rugged,&can practically go any place. IF YOU BUY ONE, ONLY SERVICE IT A GM DEALER LIKE CADILLAC THAT DEALS WITH ESCULADES,BUT STAY OUT OF OIL LUBE & TUNE SHOP.The H3 is a fun vehicle to drive,has the most powerful A/C & Heater I have ever had.It is well built & reliable. They are now becoming some what of collectors items where Hummer Owners Clubs are growing & it has been speculated to be one vehicle that will increase in value.
