Dealing on an H3 - Page 2

I just looked on the gm supplier discount web site and they are letting those who can get the supplier discount to extend it to 2 family or friends from now to May 31, 2006. So if you know anyone who gets a supplier discount, ask them to look into it for you.

That what i got but it can be used by me or another family member i can get it anytime but the catch is if the ever find out you have to keep it for 6 months

Maybe I assumed you knew..if you tow a trailer, it needs to have all the rear lights working on it...

Uh yeah, know that. All I'm saying is that it should have a wiring harness (7 prong) without the crap in your pic. All of our trailers are wired for 6 prong and we once ran into this problem before so we bought a 7 to 6 instead of rewiring 3 trailers. Enough said, the outlet is wired onto the vehicle therefore it has to come with it. (Or perhaps the 'electrical outlet' refers to the 7 prong not an actual electrical outlet - I have seen an actual electrical outlet in a similar location on a different vehicle before as well.)

I am surprised they are saying there is no protection package. They will also add a doc. fee around $400-$500, and wanted another $300 for thief protection which is the numbers eched into the windows. Let the games begin. The Phx. dealers are impossible- i did not drive to las Vegas for the fun of it. Please let us know how it works out. Remember, Las Vegas is only another 5 hours away which i believe will save you another $1000 to $1500 at least.
By the way, on the internet they gave me an intially good price but when i got there they said they made a mistake and it was really another $1400 more (this was the Tuscan dealer- Royal Hummer/Buick). They all play games. Buying a new car is now as much fun as a root canal.

Sorry to have wasted your's and my time with trying to explain all this crap!
as far as I'm concerned

Hi dilo2001gt,

My dealer tipped me off to this. It is only valid until May 31st, 2006. They are calling it the "gmsupplier discount plus".
You can extend your discount twice to a friend or family member until end of May and still keep your two vehicles a year. They are trying to drum up some gm sales. You can find the details on gmsupplierdiscount.com

I get the suppliers discount through work also for all the major car makers. But this is the first time I have ever seen them allow me to give my discounted rate to a friend or family member. Have you ever seen them do that before?

When i did it they told me one more family member can do this too. The promotion is probably for the friends

I will ask again when I talk to the salesguy today.

That's 10.5 hrs total and I am 8 months pregnant. I am not going to Las Vegas. I'll either go to Albuquerque or forget it. If they don't want to sell me one that bad, I don't need one.

Tucson is where we went last week. The 'sales coordinator' lied about their inventory and when we got there, there was only one even close to what we were looking for. Then they wouldn't deal and when I went to leave the sales manager started threatening me about theirs going off special and my trade in going down in value and I would regret it, yada yada yada...

Superior Blue/Ebony

There is another very similarly equiped that is Boulder Grey/Ebony.


The trailering 'equipment' is the hitch and wiring. I thought the Trailering Package was an adapter plug and something else I don't need(?)

DOES IT LOOK LIKE THIS http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2198683/1

If I was pregnant I also would not drive 10.5 hours for sure but then if I was pregnant I would be very concerned. Best wishes with the newbie ! Is it your first?

And if I was Pregnant, I would be a very rich man.

It looks like that minus the chrome package, chrome wheels, leveling kit (which is great ), roof racks, and the interior is ebony cloth.

Nice ride BTW! I've been checking out your pics for days! Here's my cardomain: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/570867

I tried to call the salesguy back today. They have two of these and the other is just a little higher priced. I was trying to see what options it has. If the only difference was the chrome appearance package I might do that. I didn't get him though. Unfortunately our trip is off until Monday but I am pretty clear on what I want now at least!

Yes it's our first. I am nervous about travelling but I figure the hospital there is better than here in case something should happen.

You are in for the best experience there is in life -having a child.

Well I've posted this in about three places now,,so why not here too

I got the; Adventure package, Chrome appearance package, Chrome Hood handles, Chrome tubular side steps, Chrome fuel door cover, 6CD/XM/Monsoon sound system, Trailer/tow package, Spare tire cover, Cloth seats, No sunroof (hate those things, always a problem with them)No documentaion fee.. and a full tank of gas for $32,500. OTD

I can recommend a dealer in Little Rock, Arkansas (actually Benton) Called Landers Hummer, they usually have around a 150 H3s in stock to choose from...I got mine at Invoice...They will pick you up from the airport if need be..I was telling someone else here that a majority of their business is from out of state..I worked my whole deal over the phone with them with no cash crossing hands. I drove 380 miles to pickup exactly what I wanted in equip and options, and at exactly the price we worked out, Period!..Very happy.
Call if you're interested...Call Rachael Buck..800-896-5263..Tell her that Dennis from Oklahoma City sent you..She will hook you up.

Dennis,
I'm about to buy the same H3 with the same options as yours. My Dealer here offered me US$33,535 including a Black Brushguard plus US$1000 Sales Tax and Us$500 Documentary fees so all together US$35,000.
Here are my Questions:
Is yours an Automatic Transm. ?
What means: OTD ?
Do you have a looking Differential with the Adventure Package ?

Hi Jogi,

Yes I do have the Auto transmission

OTD..is just an expression for "Out The Door" (all costs included)

And yes..with the adventure package it comes with the Locking Differential (rear only)

Good luck on your purchase!
