2006 Hummer H3 Spy Shots

[luckytruck]

thanks for the info. i went to hummer.com and ang lupit pala talaga ng H1, especially if you get all the off roading accessories.

pero grabe din ang price, over 100,000 dollars, wala pa ang taxes and accessories. OUCH

pambabae naman yata tignan yung model na yan

[niky]

The H2 has little of the off-roading capability of the H1... it's just plain heavy and unwieldy.

If you want a 'real' Hummer, just bribe some official in the AFP to decommission one for you... or look for AFP surplus. :D

[boybi]

hindi pala solid diffs ang H1?

[glntVR]

nd na maganda yan h3... mas gusto ko pa din yung h2 and yung h1

[happiman]

sa biglang tingin, halos parehas na nga lang sa assemble sa Cavite yang H3 na yan.

may nakita akong orig na H1 last year, naka park sa tapat ng Le Souffle The Fort. Black and yellow ang kulay.

H3 is based on a competent platform. But I don't think it deserves to be called a Hummer.

Hummers used to be about capability.

Nowadays, its about rapstars and NBA players riding on bling-blings with numerous video screens in the cabin.

[luckytruck]

nope, hindi solid difs and h1. they use some kind of geared setup near the wheels, plus everything that has anything to do for the drivetrain is lifted up into the cabin, out of harms way, protected by tubular steel and rocker panels. that is the reason pala for the huge hump in the middle of the h1.

ang lupit ng mga videos ng H1. go anywhere talaga. it can even traverse 30 inches of water and can climb a 22 inch step without any problems.

grabe

Taken from www.howstuffworks.com:

The AM General Hummer military vehicle combines some advanced mechanical technology with sophisticated electronics to create what is arguably the best four-wheel-drive system available.

The Hummer has a full-time system with additional features that can be engaged for enhanced off-road performance. In this system, just as in our basic system, the transmission is hooked up to the transfer case. From the transfer case, one driveshaft connects to the front axle and one to the rear axle. However, the transfer case on the Hummer does not automatically lock the front and rear axles together. Instead, it contains a set of open-differential gears that can be locked by the driver. In open mode (not locked), the front and rear axles can move at different speeds, so the vehicle can drive on dry roads with no problem. When the differential is locked, the front and rear axles each have access to the engine's torque. If the front wheels are in quicksand, the rear wheels get all of the torque they can handle.

The front and rear differentials are both Torsen® differentials. These differentials have a unique gearset: As soon as it senses a decrease in torque to one wheel (which occurs when a tire is about to slip), the gearset transfers torque to the other wheel. Torsen differentials can transfer from two to four times the torque from one wheel to the other. This is a big improvement over open differentials. But if one wheel is off the ground, the other wheel still gets no torque.

To handle this problem, the Hummer is equipped with a brake traction control system. When one tire starts to slip, the brake traction control applies the brakes to that wheel. This accomplishes two things:

* It keeps that tire from slipping, allowing it to make maximum use of its available traction.
* It allows the other wheel to apply more torque.

The brake traction control system applies significant torque to the wheel that wants to slip, allowing the Torsen differential to apply two to four times that increased torque to the other wheel.

The system on the Hummer is capable of sending a large amount of torque to whichever tires have traction, even if this means sending it all to a single tire. This brings the Hummer pretty close to our definition of an ideal four-wheel-drive system: one that supplies each tire with the maximum amount of torque it can handle.

yung mga orig na H1 and H2 dito, kung meron man, saan nila ito napapaservice?

[dprox]

boybi ~ Alam mo, ayaw ko sanang ipaalam kung saan sineservice yung H1, kasi my personal advocacy is "BUY FILIPINO". Pero sige, FYI lang, the licensed distributor and service center of the original AMG Hummer is Hummer Phils Inc, located at 20 Araneta Avenue. O sige, bahala ka nang maghanap kung saan yung entrance. Medyo secure kasi sila. I've been there only to study the merchandise up close, not to buy. Shucks, if I had PhP 6-7 million, I would rather start my own fabrication shop and make my own High-Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV). My reaction: kelan kaya mag-eevolve ang dyipni? :question:

[luckytruck]

sa GM siguro. i saw a GM dealer displaying an h1 or 2 na second hand for sale sa Davao.

2006 Hummer H3





Everyone is downsizing these days - even Hummer. But this downsizing may actually increase Hummer sales by up to an estimated 100,000 units annually.

This smaller and less expensive Hummer is actually a derivative of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon mid-size trucks, but in SUV guise and with aggressive and macho Hummer styling.

The 2005 H3 will be powered by a straight six, and will be priced nearly $75,000 less than the H1, and $15,000-$20,000 less than the $50,000 H2. The H3 should be a relative bargain at the $30,000-$35,000 range when it arrives at dealerships in mid-2005.

ano sa palagay ninyo?..magkakaroon kaya sa atin nito?

[kimpOy]

its because its based or derived from chevy colorado/gmc canyon/isuzu d-max

yes you saw right. Dmax

[luckytruck]

ayos, antay na lang ako ng surplus na DMAX tapos kabitan ng Hammer na katawan. H3 1/2 na ito hehehehehhe

[bilog]

hahaha! mas maganda pa pala amc hammer kung ganon. takot siguro hummer sa mga hate site sa kanila kaya nag downsize.
