Vehicle Description
2007 Hummer H3
"The Hummer H3 is an off road vehicle that was produced from 2005
to 2010 by General Motors. The smallest model of the Hummer lineup,
it was offered as a 5 door SUV or a 4 door pickup truck known as
the H3T. Unlike the larger H1 and H2 models, the H3 was not
developed by AM General. It was introduced for the 2006 model year,
based on a modified GMT355 that underpinned the Chevrolet
Colorado/GMC Canyon compact pickup trucks that were also built at
GM's Shreveport Operations in Shreveport, Louisiana and the Port
Elizabeth plant in South Africa." Thx Wikipedia
For consignment, a 2007 Hummer H3 with a title verified 112,996
actual miles, a one owner car that's been garaged its whole life
and shows nicely as a well cared for and maintained road or off
road vehicle. A Jeep on steroids with the mystique of being a
Hummer that includes all of its service records over the years, (ya
know, former military and takes no prisoners kinda vehicle!).
Exterior
A nice coat of two stage Victory Red bathes the exterior panels of
this truck looking a bit like armored 4x4 with gun turrets in the
form of narrow tinted windows, squared off fenders, and wide black
bumpers with the requisite tow shackle and hitch on back. The truck
is lifted off the 16-inch wheels and allows this vehicle to go
through water up to 27 inches deep. Chromed tubular side steps
compensate for the height and allow an easier climb to the cabin
which benefits from large side mirrors. Other things that make this
vehicle stand out include the large chrome grille, the hefty front
bumper with shackles, the faux hood vent that adds visual interest,
the meaty roof tracks for the rack, and a utilitarian looking gas
cap cover. In back, a full sized spare wheel is mounted and ready,
flanked by flush tail lights and blocking a large tailgate that is
side hinged. As a testament to its care, we could not find any
major exterior imperfections.
Interior
With its tough exterior, the interior takes on a softer look, made
for the comfort one would expect on an everyday SUV. The door
panels are black molded plastic with light Cashmere leather
inserts, molded armrests, power window and door locks, and a power
mirror toggle. Inside are the power seats where we note front high
back buckets covered in beige leather with black piping. The
driver's seat shows some compression but is otherwise clean and
intact. In the back is a tall backed leather bench with a 60/40
split to expand the rear cargo area with a choice of extensions. In
front, a familiar GM steering wheel and a rather simple dash
wrapped in hard plastic, a far cry from the cold steel dash of the
military Hummer. But there is some "metal" in the form of an
aluminum plate that houses the AM/FM/CD stereo with Bluetooth and
satellite capabilities as well as the climate controls, looking not
unlike a stainless steel kitchen appliance. At the top of this
plate is a lineup of buttons which is your 4x4 control mode center,
and the shifter is down below in the center console. Tan carpet is
underfoot and in mat form in the cargo area. Above is the foam
molded and clean headliner is a power sunroof.
Drivetrain
Under the hood sits a clean 3.7 liter inline 5 cylinder engine
putting out 272hp. It has EFI, and a 4L60E 4-speed automatic
transmission bolted to the back. Turning the tires are 4.10 geared
axles for front and rear. Lots of plastic coverings and all very
clean in this engine bay. Power disc brakes are also in front and
back.
Undercarriage
We had to double check the mileage on this rig because the
underside, as with the rest of the truck, does not look its age.
Other than a bit of road dirt and surface rust, it's very clean
underneath. There are no fluids out of place, no invasive rust, and
no caking grease anywhere. The truck uses torsion bars for the
front suspension and leaf springs for the rear. OEM single exhaust
is in charge of the exhale and deposits spent gas discreetly under
the truck towards the back.
Drive-Ability
This pseudo military civilian truck fired right up and off to the
test loop we went. It ran smoothly, had crisp shifting and easy
steering and from on high, visibility was very good. It's not as
wide as a real Hummer of course, but this is still a large vehicle,
so mind your wide hips! All functions were working as intended.
While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were
working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these
functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
What happens when you take good care of a vehicle over the course
of 17 years? It ends up looking great, performing well, and defying
its odometer. This is an astoundingly clean H3 that was obviously
pampered. A neat little 4x4 that looks larger than life and exudes
ruggedness but the only offroad it performed was probably running
over a flowerbed. This beauty has plenty of life left. Storm
chaser, zombie escape rig, grocery getting, soccer taxi. It does it
all. Oorah!
