Looks cool. They must have been filming an ad. I took my '02 Z28 up the California coast last summer and stayed a night in Pismo. Nice little town. Nice road too. !!!

Good move on GM's part keeping the H2 look for the H3. Nice pictures, now we just need to know all the details on the H3.

Looks good!! this is the first shot of the front that we have seen.

Should be better at off road than the H2, I read H3 will have 85 series tires

Should sell well if the mileage numbers are good with the I-5.

I think the I-5 will be ok on gas. I just hope it can get out of it's own way. They would do better with 90% Alpha's with a SC or TC..

My 2005 Colorado Z71 Crew cab avgs. 20mpg mixed driving, I'd expect the H3 to do about the same. The I5 feels stronger than the old 4.3L V6 also. Turbo I5, 4.8L V8, or Diesel with 280+tq would make a nice Alpha

I wish they would have gave the H3 a more distinct image. It and the H2 are basically another dynamic duo like the Navigator and Aviator, and look how the Aviator failed.

Which Hummer is it that has a small pick-up bed in the back? I think I saw one of those on it's own on a vehicle transport truck headed off somewhere. I'm not a fan of this H3. When I think of Hummer, I want to think of massive vehicle, nothing the size of an Explorer, which is about the size this one looks to me.

Looks too much like the H2. Did they make it just for fuel economy? At least the interior's a step up from the rest of the line up.
