last weekend we added a new member to the family

and here is a pic of both Hummers. the one in the rear is an 08 Alpha

Nice! Are you phasing the OG out or keeeping both?

keeping both, and phasing out all my other 4x4 toys

cool I just got my H3 and now my wife wants one :eek: that's coming from someone who said why don't you get something participial :confused:

Did you get your Alpha from Edmond Hyundai with like 25k miles on it?? If you did, I test drove it the night before you bought it and had every intention of buying in the morning, haha! Had to buy this one instead:

actually, yea. Do take your offroad?

Hey guys, i just got my hands on an 08 Alpha too!

Both of yours look great! Mine is the same colour as yours Skeeter but with the same wheels as Sams!

Looks good Martin! That's an H3x Alpha! Take care of it! They're rare! Rare, as in, it's one of less than 600!

I see you've got it leveled up, good work! Planning on putting bigger tires on those wheels? If so, I have to tell you not to make the same mistake I did (and Skeeter did it too)! Don't buy 295/70/18 nitto's! They look PERFECT, but they're designed for heavy duty trucks and have a load rating of 4000lbs EACH, and I think they ride like crap! I found out (a couple months after spending $1500 on tires) that General Tire is the only company (that I can find) that makes an all-terrain 35x12.50R18 with a normal duty (D rating) load rating of 2,900lbs and will ride ALOT BETTER and is only slightly wider than the 295's we've got. Just a heads up!

What are the differences between a H3x alpha and a normal alpha?

I'm not aware of any modifications, are you sure it's been raised? I am planning on some off road mods but not just yet!

Thanks for the advice.

H3 "X" add-ons:

What upgrades differentiate the H3x from the regular H3? The H3x starts out Luxury http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png package equipped, and adds chrome tube steps, chrome appearance package and chrome fuel door. A body-color grille replaces the chrome unit, making the new chrome brush guard stand out more prominently.
The H3x also gets a body-color spare tire cover with a unique chrome embellishment featuring a HUMMER appliqué, plus an exclusive wheel, center cap and tire package.
On the inside, added to the luxury package components, embroidered headrests add a touch of exclusivity.

You can tell from the even stance of the vehicle you posted that it's been leveled up front. From the factory they had a rear-to-front downward rake that was part of the design styling of the vehicle. Yours hasn't been "modified" , it's just had the front torsion bar bolts cranked up. You can return it to stock in less than five minutes in your driveway if you desire.
