Still Searching For An H3T

[Waldo]

It appears that Southgate has either sent their last few H3T's to auction or found someone dumb enough to shell out almost 50,000 on one. I guess I'll have to search for one used <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... #>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' /> I was really hoping to find my first brand new vehicle, and have it be MY 3T.



The search Continues!

This may be a stupid question, but have you looked States side yet???

[Waldo]

I've looked a little bit. But after bringing my two Skylines across from Japan several years back, I don't kow if I really want to be fighting with u.s/Canada customs. Japan to Canada, piece of cake, I don't know about from the states to here. Haven't talked to many that've gone that route yet.

Although the last dealership I worked at the only Large SUVs they could get were from the states. Might find out if I can get a 3T on a truck with their next shipment of suburbans. I don't know, I might take some time to track the one I really want.

I have imported two Hummer H2's from the US and it was a peice of cake. Did it all myself and it cost me virtually nothing besides the tax at the border (don't know how that is effected now with our provincial HST??), RIV fee, the sir conditioning tax, and you would have to pay the Gas Guzzler Tax (Green Tax) if it is a 2007 or newer. There is a thread on here somewher where we talked about how easy it is to import US vehcile that are American made (NAFTA Qualified) as you do not pay any duty on the vehicle. If I can be of any further assistance, please drop me a PM....if you are affiliated with a dealership....all the easier!!

I have seen a bunch show up on Kijiji lately;



This one has 10K and the guy is asking $28,000. I don't know if has the off-road pacakge though.

38.5K asking price

http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicle ... Z214656831



This one is 40K

Judging by the pictures of the first one, it seems that it has the city tire. So it would suggest that it doesnt have the adventure package, since that kit comes only with the 33 off road tire.



The middle one they dont say and tire and rim are changed but it has BF Goodrich on it like the H2, so maybe.



Your 3rd ont it clearly mention that it has the adventure package but at 40k even with 28000 km and a spare set of tires seems expensive. They were 38500 new at Plaza

[duncanpa]

First one looks like the best deal...you can always add things on later to make it what you want and at the price of the first one.....you have more money to customize to your liking....

The second truck was definitely a showroom truck at Shaw GMC, I actually talked to a sales guy about it and they were asking $35K if I remember?? Guy is definitely trying to make a buck or two by selling high...

[Sugarphreak]

Yeah the 1st one looks to be the best deal, but I think you could easily spend the difference of the other one on trying to get the transfer case, upgraded suspension & lockers installed on it.
