For $32,500 In Jan 06,

I got;

Adventure Package
Chrome Package
Chrome hummer gas cover
Chrome hood handles
Chrome tubular side steps
Automatic tranny
Monsoon stereo/6CD/xm
Cloth seats
Tire cover
No stinking rotten sun roof.

They tell me I basically got it as cost

...I find this hard to believe, but at any rate, I feel this was a fair deal for me

...GM wasn't offering any financing at the time, so 0% is also a plus, if you can find it... Talk them into an extended warranty and I'd say that would be a good deal.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I think we'll probably get it for sure. I may see what else I can pry out of those tightwads.. LOL. My feeling is that it's not a fantastic price, but it's not a bad price either. Sort of, middle of the road, as far as deals go. This will be my wifes ride. All we've ever owned are 4wd's. Right now she has an 01 4wd Tahoe LT that we bought new. It's in awsome shape, with only 51,000 miles, but she wants an H3, so it looks like we'll be getting one. She's more into the looks of it, and I like the 4:1 T case. Even though it's main duty will be the usual mom stuff.. it will still see some moderate trails here and there. Nothing too severe though, I'm already in the process of building a new trail rig, so no need to tear the H3 up. Plus I have a lifted 97 Z71 that I bought new, as well.

I'll probably buy a few things for the H3 right away.. but I still have a few more things to buy to finsh the trail rig, an 89 K5, so I can't get too crazy on it.

First of all th H3 comes with a factory alarm and if you want more horsepower wait another month and buy the 07 it will have a 6 in it.

I'm aware that it comes with a security system. I guess the dealership installed something a little more extensive. I don't have the full scoop on the one they installed, I guess I'll know more about it when I see it. It would be nice if it was a perimeter alarm w/ a remote start, or at least something worth the extra money. If not, I think I'll push them to either drop the price, or remove it. I won't have a lot of time to haggle ver it though. We're leaving for the coast the next morning, so I'll have to see.

I'm not going to wait another month and pay several thousand more for 20 hp. I'm not sure the 07's will have a 6 either. Last I heard they will bump the 3.5 up to a 3.7, and gain 20 more hp & lbs. of torque.

I think you're right..It'll probably have a remote start feature intergrated.

And yes, the 07s will still be an I5 with bigger jugs

A little update on the situation guys - I finally got my H3!!! Jake, thank you so much for the recommendation! I ended up getting a Black H3 with the works (they had no more Yellows with a Nav... but it's alrite, Black was my next best choice anyway). And I got an excellent deal on the price as well.

My H3 has both the luxury and adventure packages, chrome appearance package, chrome steps, chrome roof racks, chrome 33" wheels, black brush guard, roof rail airbags, towing package, Navigation and Sunroof!! I couldnt be happier!!! Thanks to everyone who posted here for all the great info!!!
