This guy is very well spoken and has his stuff together!
Why wouldn't he be well spoken?
I agree 100% this guy was very comfortable in front of the camera
@@electrikoptik let’s put you in front of a camera and we can find out
All he needs now is a gym membership lol
i love it that normal everyday people can visit you and show off their vehicles and you guys treat them like friends you havent seen in awhile...keep it up.... keeping it real at home is what makes you guys so unique
Bobby, That's the way life should be. No fellow human being has true rank over another. It's only perceived/make-believe in my book.
I was much older than my classmates in college and there was nothing more disappointing than when my 20yo classmate felt like a member of congress deserved better healthcare than he should get. He truly felt like the life of someone in politics was more valuable than his own. I'll never forget that very sad moment. ...Just ignore everything I just wrote. Let's just watch more TFL! Take care.
Y’all should have this dude back for a series on the H3. He was excellent
I would be interested!
Same.
Front and rear lockers... The H3 is cooler than I thought.
Yeah I didn’t know that was available, also that V8 is perfect for it
The Alpha models had great off road gear on board. Pretty much the predecessor to the Colorado ZR2 under the GM umbrella.
The H3 also looks WAY better than the H2. side by side there is actually a difference. the H2 looks shorter and taller whereas the H3 looks like they flattened it. Proportions look better.
I agree. I never gave the H3 enough credit
Yea same on my 06 h3, wish I had the V8 though lmao
Awesome hummer. Adam is a super nice guy. We had a great time with him on Top of The World trail.
Thanks! I had a great time wheeling with you guys! Can't wait to see your videos too.
Congrats to Adam for a great no nonsense build
Definitely a sweet ride man, love it. Don’t see these around anymore
I've started to see a ton of H3's around the Midwest over the past year.
Life is so awsome come prepared like a boy scout and nothing will go wrong, WELL DONE
That was my thinking, whatever spare I don't bring will be the part that breaks. Luckily, everything worked great!
Nice finding! I just purchase a very Rare H3T Alpha with lockers on both diff so very happy!
I thought I was a H3 guru, but I never heard of that model , great episode , that guy was very knowledgeable
My mother had a 1988 Toyota pickup and I was still finding Moab red dirt 25 plus years later.
That is a great looking H3 ... nice setup! 👍🏻
Best one yet. This guy would be great to have back. Very knowledgeable and we'll spoken. Looooved his hummer! Love to see a series on this!!!!👍
I picked up a championship edition out of Louisiana last year, 82k miles. The VIN will still pop as an ALPHA even though headrest embroidery and exterior badging won't say it. I love it 99% of the time. Other 1% is when I'm at a gas station
My Championship Edition was made in Shreveport, Louisiana!
Thats a good looking H3, very tasteful and functional mods. I knew the Alphas had the 5.3 and optional front and rear lockers but didn't know they made a championship edition, more a basic model with the 5.3 and front and rear lockers, seems like the perfect combo. I have an '07 H3 3.7 adventure package with rear locker only. The H3 is a great truck.
Seriously good taste. I don’t like hummers nor aftermarket headlights or head units NORMALLY but this guy made them look very factory. Looks so good front to back. Great work, man. 👍🏼
I have to say, I have never been a fan of any of the GM Hummer products but I really like what you've done with this H3. Really tasteful mods, smartly packaged for off-road adventures. Really cool!
I have bought 2 Hummer H3’s and a Hummer H3T, 2 was Alpha V8 loved them!
Great video TFL/Andre, and thanks to Adam for bring this to us.
Good story well told!
What an excellent setup of an offroader with amazing spare gears etc. All this H3 needs is a supercharger. I also wanna thank this gentleman for the great spy videos of Hummer EVs at the drivethru's. Thank you tfl for sharing this video.
I’ve always liked the H3. Sized well and was built pretty tough. That’s a nice ride he has!
Adam should bring his H3 to the Hummer Club Event in Moab in September.
This owner knows his stuff. Nice to hear about someone else who wheels in the upper midwest where the trees are king on thick forest trails.
This is a great example of what you can reasonably do with a H3. Such a shame it lived in the shadow of the H2.
Very cool. This is a unique Hummer that will keep its value cus of thr trim. Now he can get a custom rear bumper.
i wish the h3 was still around - love the way this truck looks.
FINALLY!!! I’ve been hoping you guys would get one of these forever!!!
Always loved the h3 I know it gets alot of hate from many people but it's well equipped and good size for the trails. Plus aftermarket support to make it better
Awesome rig
Nice truck, this is pretty much how I would like an H3 if I were to purchase one.
I have 2009 H3 Championship Series in like new condition (just like it came out of the factory). Bought it brand new. I recently detailed it and it is absolutely spotless. Never took it offroad. It came with front and rear locking differential (adventure package), sunroof, chrome package. with added offroading light and Bilstein performance shocks. It is in WAY better condition than what he has. Most people think it is a brand new vehicles and cannot believe me when I tell them it is 2009. It has over 130K on it but you would never be able to tell. Now that I hear all these good comments about it, it makes me appreciate my truck even more. :)
Love the looks of the H3. Thanks for showing your rig and have a nice drive back to MI.
the guys in that hummer EV would probably be jealous of this guy's rig when they end up at Moab together
this was one of the beat looking, true off road vehicles. super capable as well. If GM had made those earlier, Hummer brand might survived. it was a true Wrangler competitor
Cool guy and rig. Thanks for sharing! :)
This is one of my ultimate off road beasts out there in the used market! Unfortunately this particular edition of the H3 is virtually impossible to find. I love the simplicity and fact that it’s not oversized like an H2 or H1. Also can’t beat that ultra proven and super reliable 5.3 V8! Really appreciate that Adam brought this over to TFL to show off this bad boy!!
The fit and finish of the H3 has always impressed me. I miss the OG Hummers.
I have the only hummer h3 that was parked on Wellington st fighting for freedom. I lived out of it for 22 days protesting. Best vehicle I’ve every owned. Will not get rid of it. Going v8 when the engines goes.
Awesome setup, Adam did a great job on this truck!
That's a great rig he has .
Thats a beautiful H3! Loved the whole look
I didn't even know hummer has such a capable factory truck other than the h1.
Thanks for keeping the hummer alive! We learn a little from every hummer you bring to the channel. This video i like how this guy explains his upgrades and where he got them from! I personally want to do so much with my hummer but I dont know where to start or where to find parts or how to fix common issues. We need a forum but with videos. Many of us hate reading and researching lol
I wish YT has more Hummer H3 videos. There's only a few H3 reviews and off-road testing videos. The H3 is so underrated.
Very Nice! It would be cool if GM brings the H3 back and makes the baby duramax a option. Keep the payload up around 1700 to 2000 pounds and it would be the go to option for overlanding in the U.S.
Yes, make it out of the good stuff, small diesel, 10 speed, cheap version and one with multimatic shocks.... I would like to see updated SSR with 10 speed, after all it's small truck for those who only need very little truck, but with hard top convertible combination experience, it just needs camaro front styling
Spot on!!!
Love these videos guys keep them up! Colorado guy here who watches on all the channels. Thanks for the hours of entertainment and information 🤘🏻
Great stuff. Very cool to see this as someone who has the H3 base model. Learned a lot from this video! If TFL gets a hold of the Hummer EV, it would be awesome to see a comparison between that and the older Hummers
I love these H3s. If GM came out with it now to compete with the Bronco and Wrangler, it would do well. It was too far ahead of its time and GM tried to position it as a mall crawler with all that chrome crap. This version is how they all should have been.
Also, the owner really knows his stuff. I'd love to know where he goes wheeling in Michigan. I'm close to there and want to find some good trails.
Man, the H3 was such a cool truck. I constantly think back and regret buying a Tacoma instead of the H3T Alpha.
Awesome truck!! Looks like you had a good time on the trails in Moab!!!
Tip for H3 Owners who Off-Road: Raise the License Plate up to the tire mount.
This guy ain’t playing games he’s a badass
Nice !! I just bought a 2009 H3T alpha with adventure pack !! Really like this truck !! I didn’t know how rare they were till I started looking online ,
Pretty cool. Didn’t know the H3 came with this package.
Fantastic setup! Gave me some ideas ☺️
Man, nice rig! I've never given any of the H3 a look because they were marketed as a mall rig that you'd give to your teenager. This has caused my mind to ponder now, haha.
I'm planning on getting one of these and this has been one of the most entertaining videos I seen.
One for sale in phoenix, 2008 H3 Alpha V-8 all the goodies, like new on face book
She took a beating but held up Awesome...might wanna fix your rear plate when you get to Michigan..Nice truck...ok didn't know about spare plate..smart guy
AWESOME RIG! I have actually been look at the Alphas because of tbe V8.
By far the coolest hummer ive seen.
Best Hummer H3 review I've seen.👍🏻
This is the one I always wanted, but never got any in the UK, so either the first version or the one I am looking for now is the pickup one as we have a fair few in the UK, but the guys that have them tend to keep them, but still looking.
Really great video 👍 you guys should make Adam a part of the team!
Well done, great review.
I didn't know these existed. Only Hummer I'd be interested in. Pretty cool.
That's an awesome suv!
Moab ALWAYS comes home with my family, in and under my truck and trailer.
Great review!
Super dope ride learned something new
I have the Truck version of this, H3T Alpha but with leather and Nav. Took years to find it, 170k on it, paint seen better days, I beat on it hauling equipment and everything, even 2500 pounds of flooring in the bed. These were the most under rated trucks of all time.
Just torn on restoring it and putting the BTR cam and beast transmission build or going hummer EV.
First world problems.
well put together truck there
I dig it brother currently looking for a fully loaded h3 with 5.3. vortec
Looks like a cool ride
I almost bought an H3 in 2012, I know they're coming with the EV Hummer but if they still made these I would definitely get one.
the Hutchinson True dual bead lock DOT legal wheels specified for aj FJ cruiser fit this truck perfectly, noi rubbing with 33's, they stick out only an inch or two and man do they look good, I have them on my 08 alpha witht he adventure package with KO2's and would not trade them for the world.
Wow, I have been looking at these recently, they are going for about 10k more at this point.
awesome H3. ive always thought it looked better than the H2. didnt know they came with V8s.
I have a 06 Hummer
I still love it 😎 I love those Tires though
Very cool!
Hello and thanks for the video ! !. Question , Where did you get the OBD gauges and what is the name. Thanks again , Hummer on Brother :)
3.7 in my 09 Colorado 💪
I like that front camera hack.
Nice H3!
2009 H3 Adventure Model is similar but with I5...
MORE VIDS ON THE H3!!!
Intelligent and awesome guest wih a wonderful host! Very informative. Deciding between FJ CRUISER and H3 ALPHA 5.0 for 90% daily driver and 10% tough off roading?? ty! CC
It’s basically a Chevy Colorado platform with front and rear lockers
If you get the off road z71 it comes with a v8 and lockers I had an 09 crew cab
I’ve always liked the H3s
Like the ZR2...
@@MrPAULONEAL sorta but a V8 first gen
These things are almost big enough to build a camper van style overland rig. I'd love to see one of these converted for that purpose.
As a fan of the Bronco, and someone who has one on order, I WISH GM would have made a modern version of this type of platform for the Blazer, like a boxy ZR2 SUV. Just for the sake of the sport and competition, my condolences to GM fans.
Wait a minute! This whole time that's a storage area😲😲😲😵😵😵. I've changed a tire multiple times and never knew I could use that area as storage as well 😆. I have a 06 h3 hummer
I have an 06. Low miles and the 3.5. But if ever goes I wanna swap in a ls engine into it
Great video! What codereader/obeII-device is that?
Very interesting.
Very cool
Love the H3
What netting was that for the rear compartment and where he get the rock sliders from
This guy is really well organized.
Hire him as Roman's advisor!
That would be a dream job! Thanks for the compliment.
Good story. 🇨🇦
I've seriously been wondering where all the H2/3s went off to. They used to be everywhere, now you see them once in a blue moon. I wondered if they got traded out during the Cash For Clunkers last round for mileage woes, but there's plenty of worse offenders still on the roads.
Thinking of building an overland vehicle on a budget, thinking of. Keep WJ , Jeep Commander or Hummer h3? Any opinions?
