Default Need advice on buying an H3

New member here looking at buying a used H3 and I need some advice, I don't really know much about H3's so pardon my ignorance. What year(s) should I avoid and should I stay away from a high mileage(150k miles) H3 or higher?

I'm not going to be doing any off roading FWIW... I just need a good daily driver that will last me at least 5-10 years and looks mean. I already own two gas guzzling slobs(BMW X5 50i-400hp...12.3mpg & BMW X5M-700hp...9mpg) so gas won't be an issue

I'm looking for an inline-5 engine(don't need another V8) that will have enough power/torque to get me though deep snow as I live in NYC

I have a budget around $9-$10k... all models in that price range have approximately between 100-160k miles, how many miles will I get out of this engine?

I appreciate all and any advice

Default Hummer h3

I recently bought a hummer h3 it's my car bought it at a used car dealer for $13000, she only had 115000 miles buts it's the hummer h3x it's luxury type so really nice itsite an inline 5. $50 fills the whole tank and it's last me almost 2 weeks to empty, and I drive it somewhat long distance 30 to 40 min drives. I honestly love it and no lie I get complimentsome all the time.

Number 1 best thing you can do for yourself is join some hummer forums and read, read ,read lol.
All the questions you've asked have been beaten to death. Take your time and purchase smart.
Welcome.

Same as any vehicle - buy the newest / lowest mileage / best condition vehicle you can find - if it were me I'd increase the budget.
