Just ran across an article in the automotive news that cited "sources close to the automaker". Apparently on the heals of the success they've had with the H3, they will make a H4 to compete with the Wrangler (perhaps as soon as 2010). Also interesting is the possibility of an H3 pickup as soon as 2009.

 

here's the link to the article (I basically just paraphrased from)

I'd like to see a pickup with Hummer styling.

 

 

 

 

 

I'm kinda torn about Hummer styling. Sometimes I see some that I like, othertimes it looks like someone glued every accessory from the local shop wherever they would fit (and many places they didn't). With all the running lights and oversized tires(H3 especially) its a little over the top.

I just WISH they'd make the pickups capable of being fitted with "oversized" tires like that...Without having to screw with the torsion bars and chop on the air dam.

 

I'd LOVE to see an H3 pickup with the 5.3 in it.

I think the Hummer name is quickly becoming a joke! Ever since GM took over, they are working the Hummer image over, and it will be a shell of it's former self. How can you even consider discontinuing the original H1, THE REAL HUMMER? All of these "jokes" of a Hummer since the H1 are just an insult to the the H1, and GM seems bound and determined to continue this trend. I have wheeled Lake Tahoe area in an H1, and it is a beast that does what you need it to do. Ive never been in an H2 or H3, but they are certainly not the purpose built machine the H1 is.

 

Has everyone seen the video on the net of the H2 doing some Basic rock crawling and snapping the front end like a toothpick?

I wouldnt say they are jokes, heck atleast we can afford the "jokes". It does suck they discontinued the H1.

maybe u guys know something i dont but i was just a hummers page yesturday and they still have the h1 for 2007 and its preety bad ass for 125000 later

 

Yea...I was researching it. GM is still selling the H1, but they are not producing them any longer. The last H1s are Duramax/Allison combos. They may continue to sell em until they are gone. GM haulted production because of changing emissions laws.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By tararebecca · Posted

      I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need.webcrimsNY

      2026 Sierra 1500 Denali - Sound upgrade?

      By artistemorbidity · Posted

      I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.

      Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
