RE: WARRANTY WORK
At 5900 lbs I am assuming they will wear out pretty fast depending on how fast you drive and how much city you do |
RE: WARRANTY WORK
No... 5900 Gross...

RE: WARRANTY WORK
Thats ridiculous, why is it so much heavier than they say it is.
Fuel should only make it about 200 lbs. heavier or less. |

RE: WARRANTY WORK
Gross means fuel, friends and cargo... Loaded it is 5900 lbs but vehicles have to be designed for that level of operation and not the lightest possible loads... Regardless of how you measure it however, it is the heaviest vehicle in its class and almost the lowest power rating so it is only reasonable to assume there is a high likelihood of problems and in that, the transmission and brakes are the most likely place for this to occur... I like it as little as anyone else but I will watch them both closely and I think everyone else should too...

I'd agree the diffs and tranfer cases are fine but who is confident about transmissions required to compensate for this level of imbalance?? As far as I know, no transmission has ever been asked to do this task before so who can say what will happen?? I want it to as much as anyone but GM set out to make this much more powerful and failed to come thru so the system is not targeted at the H3 nor is it even GM's first choice... Combined it will keep we watching very, very closely... |

RE: WARRANTY WORK
Don't worry... The average life of a tranny has got to be somewhere between 150000 - 200000 miles so even if this one is stressed, it should make it to at least 50000-150000... You can bet GM made sure they could make the 40000 warranty mark however... They arn't stupid and that being probably their only concern and/or requirement, I'd bet they made it good enough for their needs...
