Did second oil change with 5w30 mobil 1 a few hundred miles ago and now approaching 10k miles. Recently, while returning from okc to dfw, took b_h's h3 up to 4k rpms and amazed me (and the surrounding assortment of hd trucks and suv's)having to use the truck lane going up the arbuckles passing the aformentioned group. The h3 is just fine even with the 3.5 engine.

You are welcome. I never really left edmunds(only here and at lost for a bit), I've just been lurking elsewhere.
 
The net seems to condescend "edmunds". I was hoping to generate a good discussion with people feeling free to join in and not get ridiculed.
 
I am curious; even though the H3 doesn't have a turbo and have posted at oil slippery subject, liked redline 15w40 in the crd. Has any body used 5w30 redline in an h3 and gone by the DIC (and not mobil 1 for 6k miles)? Thinking about redline 5w30 and let the oil change go until the onstar update.

Are New 2006 H3's still available? by stephie1

I am having a hard time getting a dealership to tell me they can get me a 2006 H3x with no mileage (or very little). All the sales guys keep pushing is a 2007, but I am thinking I can get a greater rebate if I can find a 2006...is this foolhearty? Where are all the 2006s out there? I see that under current rebates and incentives a lot of manufacturers are listing deep rebates on remaining (new) 2006 models they are looking to clear out, but I am having a hard time finding them when I contact the dealers...such as SAAB, Hummer, GMC Yukon, etc.. It is like I am hitting my head against the wall in talking to the sales people. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Probably a little late for last minute 'new' '06 bargains. We're now well into '07 and it won't be long before the '08s become available. You'll soon be seeing the last of the '07s.

Looks like Durango isn't the only guilty place for hummer damage. Conversations at the local dealer brought up the vandalism issue. It seems that in some of the "better" areas here that the 2's and some 3's have been "keyed?". Another case of misguided (other vehicles get worse mileage)or mischievous activity?
 
Oil oil oil, spent way too much time at bitog, but leaning to staying with mobil 1 (decades of use).

Why did Ford and GM destroy mass transit decades ago?
 
In this sunday's Fort Worth Star Telegram in the Drive section, Mr. Wallace talks about Mr. Ford's hatred of wasteful war and convenience for the farmer.

Yes. Read some history of mass transit. Thanks for the post. I used to be wary of posting links to other forums [per edmunds (and alluded to them while on the crd forum)]. I recognized the jeep dealer where we bought our crd while travelling to Houston one saturday on Mr. Wallace's radio show. Mr. Wallace seems to have a lot of connections and respect in the auto, oil, and journalism fields. Our H3 is what the crd should've been - fuel it up and drive it - 11k miles now.

I remember watching a story many years ago (possibly 60 Minutes?) about how GM killed the use of trolley cars in Los Angeles. GM made diesel engined buses. They simply paid off local politicians to get the city to drop the trolleys and to buy buses. Big shots running big companies will do almost anything to make a profit, especially if they believe they won't get caught.
