Default Newbie from Texas

Hi Everyone

I am originally from South Africa, lived in Israel for nine years and moved to Texas almost six years ago where I saw my first Hummers. I thought they were absolutely gorgeous. I am now in the final stages of divorce and decided to get rid of the car (and the memories) my ex husband bought me, and get a pick up since I live in a rural area. I did not consider a Hummer as I thought the prices would be prohibitive, but by chance I came across a Hummer on the internet for about the same price as the used pick ups I was looking at. So I began searching for pre owned Hummers and on New Years Eve I bought an '07 H3 Adventure with 43 000 miles on it in great condition and even though it is not brand new, I am in love with it. I could never understand people who loved their vehicles, now I do. Last week end I went on a short road trip, my GPS got me lost and took me down what looked like a cow path with foot deep mud and pot holes and my little H3 just plowed right through with no problem at all, except for a little sliding. I arrived at my destination with the vehicle covered in mud but I was thrilled at it's off road performance. Hummers rock.

Welcome to Hummer and the forum. If you think you like it now wait a little bit. The more you drive it the more you will appreciate your Hummer.

Outside of West? Is West a town? I am not that far from Waco. I have only seen a few states in America ( I plan to rectify that now that I have the perfect ride for road trips) but I really like Texas and Texans.

Welcome to the forum, and congrats on your new vehicle! There's alot of Texan Hummers out there that offroad their rigs frequently, you should reach out to them and really see how capable your H3 is... once you wheel it you'll be hooked...
