yeah, i don't mean to discourage offroading,a nd i know the leather in the H2 (at least the ebony) smells pretty much better than the leather in basically any other car/truck outside of (if you prefer the sort of overdone leather smell) a Caddy.

but my truck does still have a bit of lingering swamp. its not in the truck - the seals held perfectly - its in the AC system. i have to flush that out somehow. maybe a bottle of rubbing alcohol. that'll learn those fungi!

Try a can of sented Lysol..Spray into the floor intake while on recirculate, then through the hood vents while on outside air..This may knock down some of the flora and fauna fragrance in your ducts.

well i gave that a shot, sprayed some lysol into some rubbing alcohol and mixed it with a bit of water to dilute it and did the deed.

my truck smelled like a dentists office, but i pcaked the gang in and drove around with the fans on high for a while & it seems to have cleared out.

The smell still isn't as sweet as it was a couple weeks ago, but i think the lingering odor is smoke - i drove a couple packs of people home from fireworks/bonfire, and i think the rich wood/gunpowder smoke smells are lingering a bit.

But anyway, you're a genius, dennis, i should have thought of that. The swamp smell seems to be completely gone.



Also, i hosed it down and took it to the local high-end car wash and then Liquid Iced it, and besides some front skid plate damage and paint scratched off the front bumper & some places on the frame where rocks dug in...

it looks like brand-new, rims and all.

Yeah, Nascar, without a doubt a big part of the hummer-hysteria is, well, people being sheep.

they saw somebody singling out an H2 or griping about hummers, so they do as well.

ALL GOOD, esp. from people I don't know:

1. Is that the H3?

2. Your truck is sooo nice!

3. How many miles per gallon do you get?


4. How much did your H3 cost?

5. Is the ride nice or kind of stiff?

6. I love your truck and am going to get one soon.

My reaction to #3 is to ask the person how many miles he/she drives to work, then I say "i drive 3 miles to work, so miles driven per day aren't an issue".
