Hi all,

I posted this in the "New Member" area but I thought I'd put it in here as well since this is where I'm going to be hanging out - I can meet you all a little quicker.

I'm a Canadian ex-pat that has been living in Dubai for the last 7 years and have recently picked up a H3, absolutely love it for the most part so far. When I was back in Canada I had a few SUV's and trucks, my favorites were my 2 door Blazers ('97 & '00) and a 4 door Z71 8100 ('05), this little H3 feels like it fits in between really well. I've always admired the style since the first one I saw back in Canada in '05 (or early '06), now I wonder why I took so long to buy one.

Here is a quick picture of it during the first off-road tour I took out into the desert, I was fortunate enough to have a camel take the time to pose for me

I'm looking forward to meeting a lot of members and getting some ideas on mods, don't worry about me being a newb, asking newb questions and not knowig how to use the search function - I'm a very active member on another forum, MBWorld. I try to contribute as much as I can as I progess with my CLK build, here is what sits next to the H3 in my garage;

Again, looking forward to meeting all of you and contributing when I can

Kev.

Nice looking truck
That has to be the first time I have seen an H3 with a camel in the background.
With the sun over there, the white color has to help with the reflecting some heat too
And welcome.

Thanks for the welcomes guys

Yeah, I was pretty lucky to get that pic, I thought it would be a good one to use here for my introduction. The white paint does help a little I guess but when it gets to 120*F its all about hoping the AC can keep up
