Wrap-Up The 2006 Hummer H3 can take you to places far from the madding crowd. Now, if only GM would add some more power.

Smaller in size, less fuelish and perhaps most important to its mission, close to half the cost of its H2 stablemate, the 2006 Hummer H3 not only talks the talk, but can walk the walk. The H3 could clearly benefit from more power to move its nearly 2.5 tons of mass. And while looks are not everything, in the case of a Hummer, they’re definitely something. Just ask any prepubescent boy. They’ll tell you the new H3 is a Hummer by a simple glance at the sheetmetal.

But, beyond that, the new H3’s off-roading prowess supports the brand’s heritage. The H3 can take you to places far from the madding crowd. And, in the lands beyond, especially in the wide-open spaces, you can enjoy a hot summer’s night far from civilization, and maybe even be lucky enough to see some fireworks.
