First of all, the H3 is far from comfortable to drive on the street. I drove to work once to show a few people there the new ride. Never again. The fun that I have off road is not worth an accident on the road. It is large, and who wants to wear the tread off the 33 inchers on pansy pavement. Get a CORVETTE! (GM still comes out ahead!) I had to put in my 2 cents. G

The point is, besides bashing the driver side door into a sign post my Mustang remained stuck in the mud. These are the times I wondered why didn't I choose a 4x4 instead. Stranded, I watched folks go by on their merry way to work. I had to call a friend with a Honda Passport 4x4 to push me out onto the street. I quickly traded that Mustang for an H3 and do not regret it AT ALL. No more sports cars for me. If you think the H3 looks ugly don't buy it. The interior room is great and the engine accelerates well enough in my opinion. Looks are subjective. I look at other vehicles and most have the same dull, domestic design to me; generic and civilian people movers; the H3 looks different, unique and stylish IMHO, but I know not everyone loves square-cut military body styling like I do. The H3 is the only cost effective choice funtionally and appearance wise for me and I would buy the same H3 in a heartbeat all over again. Style wise though I think the H2 wins over all 4x4's hands down, especially over Xterra, all Jeeps, the Murano, Land Rover, you name it. But 10 MPG is just not my thing. To bad they didn't just scale the H2 down and kept the same styling. Last edited by urrl78 : 01-10-2006 at 02:02 PM.
