Hans3T is Back from RC -- in One Piece!

Posted by on Monday, November 14, 2011, In : Hummer 4x4 Off Road 
Saturday's Rausch Creek Run was a great success.  We ended up heading out with four trucks, which was the perfect number for exploring tons of trail at the park.  We had two H3Ts, an H3 and a 4" Rancho-lifted H3 (which belongs to the owner of THORparts).  The run could not have been on a nicer fall day - we had cool weather, bright sun and blue skies above the rocky and muddy terrain of RC.

None of my group shots turned out too picturesque...Kflips' H3T lost its breaks and I don't blame ...

Hans3T is Off to RC!

Posted by on Thursday, November 10, 2011, In : Hummer 4x4 Off Road 
Tomorrow afternoon Hans3T is off to meet with a small group of H4O members at Rausch Creek in Tremont, PA.  Tomorrow night will involve a general meet 'n greet, followed by a full day of wheeling on Saturday.  The weather forecast is promising, the trucks are all stable, and the group looks well-prepared for a day of fun.

I will do my best to take plenty of photos and some video as well.  Which reminds me...should probably charge my cameras...good call.  So, keep your eyes peeled for a post-ru...

Whining and Rattling...Warranty to the Rescue!

Posted by on Thursday, November 10, 2011, In : This and That 
With the weather cooling down, I have found that it is the time of year when the temperature dial can comfortably be leaning towards the red dot side.  Last week, however, I noticed an unusually loud whining noise coming from what sounded like the passenger side.  This, paired with the improperly re-installed door speaker from the last dealership visit, was enough irritating noise to warrant a call to my local Caddy/Buick/GMC dealer for a warranty claim.  

I took Barney in at the crack of dawn...

Boring Weekend Project: Vanity Plate Antics

Posted by on Thursday, November 3, 2011, In : Tech/Mods/Installs 
Howdy-hey, Hans3Teers!  I am a bit bored this evening, and so I thought I would post up a fun little "project" I did about two weeks ago and had forgotten to post -- my custom "vanity plate".  I started with a blank license plate (complements of a commuter outreach program on campus) and then got a package of vinyl letters at WallyWorld for a couple bucks.  I then hand-laid the letters to read the following:

And that is how I sometimes spend my low-key we...

What is Hans3T?


Chances are if you're here you know me, or at least know of me on some level. Basically, Hans3T was started as a "journal" of sorts for my truck, which I took delivery of in June 2010. (Luckily, I don't track the amount of money I've spent on accessories.) My goal for Hans3T is to entertain readers, offer my thoughts and opinions on Hummer-related topics, and to keep the spirit of the Hummer brand going strong. If you're reading this, thank you for your support! Hans3T is a non-profit website. (Unless you count self-satisfaction as profit.) You readers make Hans3T all the more enjoyable for me!
