Dave Looks Cool.. One thing You need to redo everything and Change the 'We Make the Sign of the Times" to "We make Signs for the Times"..
Plus Pulling up in a Hummer for a Bid on a 18x24 Real Estate is a little overkill... Thats why I quit riding the Harley to a Bid.. People Thought I made to much. So now I use a Vespa. Posted by Dave Draper (Member # 102) on :
That Hummer3 cost less than a truck! (with enough power to pull the trailer)
Vortec 3700 5 cylinder engine with 242 horse power and torque..4WD (3 flavors) and affordable!
20 miles to the gallon on the road with 87 Octane gas (pulling the trailer no so good....about 12-13 mpg)
The graphics all come off the "zebra" next month and we are doing a full wrap...sorry top secret for now. But I will say this, so far the "zebra" graphics we created have generated a lot of "walk in" customers, 2 truck letterings and a trailer, and we are doing a full wrap for a photographer in March.
Its doing its job...
Oh, by the way, we got 12 inches of snow last Tuesday... and I pulled step vans out of the ditch in our business park. They were impressed!
I did get stuck once...for 3 minutes.
3 hours till we hit the road! YES!

I have a 96 Chevy Cavalier for $400. It has airbags, stereo, pull down back seat for any long signs, etc. and all the lights work! last time I checked I've been getting 30 around town. (it kind of just happened after my eagle talon bit the dust; sometimes you just get lucky.)

Looks great Dave!
My wife and I are looking at the H3's and really like them. We both really like the H2 for the room, comfort, horsepower and because of what we like to do.. (winter recreation, pull a trailer, pack up the kids and their gear inside etc.. but we also like the H3 because it’s so affordable and get’s a little better mpg. We still haven't driven one, but I am impressed with the H2 build quality and handeling, so hopefully GM built the H3 as well.
The design on yours looks wonderful and the trailer, even better! Don't let anyone make you feel guilty for earning anything!

h3 is built on the same platform as a Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickups, the H3 shares those trucks' body-on-frame construction; double-A-arm and torsion-bar front and leaf-spring rear suspension systems; and 220-hp, 3.5-liter DOHC 20-valve all-aluminum inline five-cylinder Vortec engine (the only engine offered). the shell is a paired down copy of the H2 outer shell but the interior is more yukon/denali like.

I heard about the price of the H3 before it came out. As a huge fan of the Hummer & the H2, but someone who couldn't justify the price... I looked forward to the release of the H3.
When it came out I couldn't believe how ugly it looked to me. It is not in the same class. No wonder it's not expensive.
Dave's graphics make it look better, but as he said himself... the cost is never going to make that vehicle create some illusions related to his pricing.
It is a sad attempt to water down all the things that made the name popular to try to sell the name, without delivering the goods. A sham & a shame IMO.

There's nothing wrong with a hummer for a shop vehicle....just a little different trailer to pull...why work if ya can't play!!!
