I just joined the forum and looks like there is a lot of good info here. I purchased a base H3 in 2007 new and just recently traded it for a 2009 H3T Alpha. I love this truck but it goes in the shop to get new seals in the front dif. I also have to try to get the leaf springs from making so much rattling and the body mounts from creaking so much. I removed the aluminum so called tonneau and installed an extang and removed the chrome hood handles. Next is some new tires. Here it is.
