Default Back in the saddle again...

I finally pulled the trigger and bought an 09 H3T Alpha. Was not as easy as it sounds naturally, but my 07 JK Unlimited with $19k into it... well I have no regrets! Every time I go anywhere in my T, people tell me they have never seen one in person, or a T model at all. I don't think I will ever meet previous owner, but I I would thank him for how much he cared for this 99% perfect T. 29k miles and you could eat off it. I dont think he ever locked in the lockers.

Will follow up with pics. Rancho 4" installed with Teflon ATX Mojave 18x9's (pretty much match the grey paint). BFG KM2's 35's.
The filter is on order along with the Magnaflow 3" cat back.

Has anyone ever tried the leather seat covers? I take dogs everywhere and wanted to know if there are like "pleather" ones that may be more durable and not hold all the darn hair like cloth ones do.

Outside of Atlanta and there are only two T's I know of around here. A black and a white one.

The only thing I'd do different with my T is hold out a bit longer for an Alpha.

I have Cover King neoprene (or are they neoSupreme?) covers for the back seat for my kids and dogs. Not wipe-off easy like leather, but a lot easier to keep clean than cloth and good protection for the leather.

Thanks T owners, and yes my T has the embroidered grey black cloth Alpha seats. No sunroof or nav., cloth, but power seats. I love it. Duh, the thread title means Im back in a Hummer again. Had an 06' H3 and again, really enjoyed it. Funny how many JK owners give stare and a few thumbs up oddly enough. Just glad im not one of them anymore.

The Wet Okole seat covers were the best and pricey, but they are still going on my old Jeep 4 years later with no sun fade or purple haze to em. Down side, is the dog hair you need duct tape to get it off.

Need to get the digital camer rollin, but Im still pretty analog, and need GF to get them uploaded. So yes, even a caveman should be able to do it!

Congrats on the purchase brother T!! Not toooo far from you, Myrtle Beach. Few hours away, lol. Know what you mean about the scarcity of the T model on the road, only one other in my area, white one and it's only been around since last summer. Guy won't even wave, lol. Probably never even see a dirt road .
