Default RIDIN' SOLO!!

SO I took my H3 on a run this weekend and ran it hard, probably the hardest ever since I bought it. Found some foreign objects between my front wheel and fender, lost my center cap in the mud, and broke off a chunk of metalfrom my rear bumper.

You guys have to check out the video here:RIDIN' DIRTYthe first pit may look like nothing but under all that mud and water is boulders, rocksand deep drops - and I kept going through it, must've went through a good 15 times flooring it!









Now check this out...driving it home was fine. The next morning I realized my battery light was flashing so I drove it to town to bring it into the dealership - while drivingmy entire dash started to flash, then all my gauges died, lost my power steering, then finally my brakes went out - this all happen just a block away from the dealership!

Got OnStar totow itin and found out this morning that I shook a lot of S#!T loose, my battery, alternator, etc., It all needs to be replaced, I'm getting a loose object bumpin' around on my right side fender well, but they said while up on the rack they couldn't find anything but mud.

Bone will be down for the rest of the week until my parts come in.

Yeehaa - can't wait to get it back we're going back with 2 H2's and 3 more H3's!!

I knew you were going to love the mud!

I pressure washed the rig and detailed the crap out of it -so much the towing guys didn't believe Itake it off-road - they thought it was a road queen until they looked underneath - LOL

Mine too. I've been thinking of buying some mud flaps to cut down on all the grime getting sprayed up on the sides. Does anyone have them installed? Do they work well?

That's what I'm afraid of with these KITT lights. I spend half the night trying to figure out how to mount them so they won't be destroyed. Oh but I WILL be the only Hummer out there with "like really cool like KITT Knight Rider lights, like oh my gawd"

Marc: Check your email today. You'll see one from me.
