can't help you on the company but I can say after listening to people discuss warranty companies on a RV forum the consensess is that you want a warranty that lists in black and white the things it will NOT cover instead of one that lists the things it will cover. The list is fairly short with those companies that list things covered and the same applies for the companies that list the things it won't cover. You will be better off buying from a company that lists parts not covered. Another thing to remember is lets say you lose some pistons on the engine which is a covered part. Maybe, maybe not. If the problem was caused by a non covered part than your engine isn't covered for the repairs. This is one reason why I ALWAYS pay the extra and get the GM extended warranty as first every GM dealer excepts it and it covers everything except things like bulbs, wipers brake shoes etc. Things that wear under normal driving. You also said your dealer excepts this company, that is fine if something fails while you are home but what about that trip in a few summers when your regular factory warranty expires for example, maybe the dealer in that out of the way place may not. If it is GM it will.
Good Luck

Help with an H3X purchase. by touchalyn

After searching the internet to get some advice on a Hummer purchase/lease, I finally found this place. Seems like there are some knowledgeable people here that may actually be able to help. I really am starting fromn scratch. Been to a few places, got some estimates on my trade in, and know now what I want...now just a matter of going to get it. That's where I am hoping someone out there can come in with any assistance.
   Here are the facts: Looking at the 2007 H3X with sunroof and navigation. Sticker is at $43,000+. Seems like best deal I can get for my current car is $10,000.
Now, first question, buy or lease?! I thought I was set on leasing, but I can't say I would mind owning and driving the vehicle longer than 39 months. From there, what are the rebates, incentives, discounts out there that I can take advantage of? Does the $1,750 apply to the 2007? So many question, so little time. If anyone can at elast get me started with those answers, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

"An H3 without the adventure package is just a suv on goodyear tires."
 
I may have to retract this shot from the hip. Just saw the gmcanada link on another forum and it implies a 5 speed (crawl ratio), luxury package (leather seating), but not the adventure package(goodyear tires?).

Should I use the low octane (87, 89) grade, or higher grades (91 or 92)?

I must bid this topic adieu, as we were sitting at a traffic light today, just to the right of an H3, a very nice bright white...
 
I asked "she who must be obeyed" what she thought of it, as it was one of the vehicles I was considering...
 
Her first words were that the windows made it look like a Brinks armored car, and her second words were something that sounded like "no way in hell will you own one of those"...
 
When I processed her distinct wording thru my cerebral cortex after the sound waves were transmitted thru the little bones in my ear (hammer, anvil & stirrups, if I recall correctly), I believe she has slightly tilted against my purchase of an H3...
 
I think that means no...
 
I wear the pants in the family, but, last time I checked, she wears the panties...
 
Thanks for all your help...
 
My SUV quest has been whittled down by one...

That's unfortunate indeed.
 
We traded my wife's minivan for a bright white H3 back in July. Cashmere interior with black-piping and chrome package with wheels, mirrors, gas cap and then added the chrome roof rack, taillight chrome, chrome brush guard and chrome hummer letters in grill plus headrest DVD screens.
 
My wife drives the Hummer daily. Aside from the gas mileage being a little worse than the minivan, the excuses your wife tossed out are sort of "bs". From the outside, yes, it may have an armored car look however.. once you're inside the H3, she will INSTANTLY get the appeal. Everyone who's been in the H3 says the same thing "wow what great visability".
 
I remember taking my wife to the Hummer dealer and as we pulled in she says "IM NOT DRIVING ONE OF THOSE THINGS..". 10 minutes into the test drive she said " I KINDA LIKE THIS -- YOU WERE RIGHT !"
 
The ONLY thing that kind sucks with the H3 is that you can only seat 5.
 
The interior (leather) is nicer than a Range-Rover and the H3 will drive OVER ANYTHING, including Nissan's, Jeeps, Curbs, Snow, RoadKill and Traffic. All kidding aside, your wife needs to drive an H3 before she puts it down.
 
Now, be a man and drag her by the hair to the Hummer dealer.

I went through that too. So I bought a Caddy STS and she loved it until I told her that I could have bought a H3 that I wanted for about 20K less. Her comment was, gee I guess that H3 wasn't so bad after all. Another funny thing, the vehicle she drives is my 04 Chevy Colorado 4 X 4 Crewcab which is the same as the H3 except for the body. Women, you can't live with them but you can't live without them.
