Hey eveyrone. I bought a Camaro SS in the spring and had the dealer work in a set of snows (was very difficult to find an 18" set to fit the Brembos, but they found a set that fits) and now its getting close to snow/salt and I couldnt bear the thought of pushing a pristine camaro with 9k on the odo though a winter, so as a result I started looking for an SUV I could use to haul my dogs, possibly tow something, and go through snow better than an SS. I convinced my gf we do not need a Kia soal because they arent very big, cant tow anything, and id feel like a complete ***** driving it. So...went to look at a Jeep Grand Cheorkee which turned out to be a POS for 12k and there was a very nice 2006 Red H3 with 60k mi for $18,000, more than I wanted to spend. Yesterday I reached an agreement to pick it up for $16,000 so once they get the title I should be ready for delivery hopefully tommarow but possibly a few more days.

Anyway, I believe it is a base model and thanks to this site it is beyond the engine head problem VIN range, and it was very fun on the test drive. I will post some pics when its here!

The previous owner put a brand new set of tires on it, not the OEM's but rather a name I cant recall, but probably cheap, but new nonetheless and about the same aggressiveness as the OEM. It has the tow package, chrome doorhandles, and a black and beige interior. I dont know much about these but boy was it alot funner to drive than the 08 explorer I drove, I was sold.

 

Welcome to the forum and I hope your purchase goes well. Post up some pics when you get it, and if you have questions.. Post em up.
