The Official 50,000 Mile H3 Club thread
Purchased my H3Lux with only 27K just about a year and a 1/2 ago. I now have 52K.
I'm On the dear lease at least once a month and rolling over logs and whatever comes. I Installed a home grown trailer hitch with a 2-1/2 inch 1/4 inch thick square mild steel beam and is as strong as hell! I think the OEM is 2 inches square. ... this summer I plan to make my own under body armor and add a winch. As soon as these OEM tires wear out, I'll be looking at some nice AT's with more aggressive stance plus a lift.
Damn this is a nice truck!

Purchased my 06 Base with Chrome Feb 11 with 43k this makes one year and 69k. Have had some issues but most are common on any of the newer vehicles and the others are just common to GM in general. Still have the Steering rack issue, and the cross member bushing issue. Overall we are so stoked with our 3. We hope to buy a 2009 or 2010 model (if there are any left) two years from now. We love our H3!
I have an 06 h3,,,as of 80K miles i had my first brake job and new tires,,,i change the oil my self using Mobil 1 synthetic,,,all i did to this guy is buy a new battery and this common problem of the wiring harness on the a/c blower motor...my lady's parents also own hummers an h2 and a ht3a,,,,,we all luv these guys~~!
53,909 miles on my 2006 H3. Far as I know I'm the second owner, so far no problems except for a clunk from time to time from front diff. Or thereabouts. Read somewhere maybe here, it might be play in the driveshaft or something. Any thoughts on that most appreciated, also does not happen all the time and all wheel modes work fine. Oh and I do have the leaky sunroof problem but its not terribly bad just mostly when it rains really hard. Everything else so far is okie dokie. Only things I have done is k&n filters, oil changes and had brakes done.

Have an 06 lux with 166500 km (sorry dunno for sure in miles 95000 maybe) and unsure of total repair history. Since have hadn't tires,ball joints, evap selinoid, all new brakes,windshield, and still gotta do rack fix and shocks and possibly upper controll arms.
Satisfaction level is ultra high even with piles of repairs.
I think they say like nothing else..... True dat... :-)
