More comments on Hummer than C6
As a previous owner of an Escalade and BMW X5 I am impressed. The Alpha has plenty of power when you need it and cruises smooth at 85-90. This thing is build very tough and think it is the ideal vehicle for anywhere. If the term MPG is even a worry keep looking, while I do get 15-16 hwy it isn't pretty when driving in traffic. Overall I think this is a nice all around vehicle but not quite the space of larger suvs. Went between this and a H2 and chose the smaller, and am happy with that choice.
A real offroad truck
I am constantly amazed by how capable my '08 Alpha is off road. It will crawl up an down hills and rocks I can't even WALK up or down, and do so with no fuss and no drama.

H3 Alpha
I have had my Alpha w/ off road package for little over a month and it is excellent. Without the V-8 engine, there simply isn't enough power to get this beast moving. So far everthing has performed as advertised. Off road . . . Jeep can say their SUV's are trail rated but since the H2 & H3 came along, they rated the trail. Everything else pails by comparison. The only drawbacks are don't plan on just buying a stock Alpha. Unless you want to crush your leather seats sliding out, buy the step assists. Add the chrome gas cap cover and throw in a brush guard and you almost have yourself the 3x package. Well worth the money. For those who want better gas milage: You knew what you were buying.
Hummer Alpha 5.3 V8
4runner owner before ... great to have a V8 powered vehicle ! much more power for towing. Instrumentation is well layed out ... but could use more convenient features on the steering wheel like the H2. Memory front seats would be a nice feature. Ipod and USB ports for the stero system is missing.
Hummer Alpha V8
Excellent vehicle ... lots of power for passing and going uphill with the v8 power. Simple instrumentation and large knobs make it easy for adjusting when the vehicle is going offroad. Get the BF Goodrich tires TA K/O .... better traction
