Has usual, when technical matters are involved, you're right.
My mistake, it was the STABILIRAC.

....I tested my H3 and after you hit 70, your mileage goes down the tubes. I can't believe you drove it that fast consistantly and it was able to keep up JM. I would love to drive my H3 on the autobahn. Sounds like fun.

JM - Also, I have received the Traction error message. I brought it to the dealer for it. You probably also got the Low Power message. This IS a bug. My dealer called one of the GM engineers that designed thevehicle, and they told him it is a bug in the software that is caused when you make an extreme left or right turn, and one of the front wheel slips. This situation caused it to happen to me twice. It hasn't happened since though, but probably because I have a different program running on the PCM now......

Well, no is not fun to drive the H3 on the autobahn. Don't forget that these roads are designed for going to one point to another the fastest possible keeping in mind the safety of the drivers.

You have three lanes,
forget staying on the left one if your average speed is below 125 mph, thus you remain with two lanes, the right one is mostly devoted to trucks and the middle lane is ALWAYS overlcrowded with cars making from 80 to 100 mph.
So, you spend your time adjusting your speed thus not using the cruise control.
Anyway, my experience during this trip has shown me that the most confortable speed with the H3 is 80/85 on Highways.

concerning the TRACTION FAIL message, when that happen, I was driving straight since more than 100 miles and no LOW POWER message flashed.

Well, I'm not very much into minivan[:'(], furthermore the H3 with a roof box is perfect for this type of trip.
What you mean by 'contradictory points'? If I have missed something let me know.

Love the roof box. It looks great. Does it come in other colors or just black?

The Brand is THULE, it's swedish but sold worldwide, go to their site www.thule and find a dealer.

It comes in grey, but you can have it painted the color you want on special order.
