Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Hey, I'm still growing too. I'm just growing around, not up :mad: :p ;)


Always been a problem and was one of the first complaints when they hit the streets. I have gotten used to it and just position my feet differently. It is an issue for me when off road and trying to BTM though.

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Heres a pic of one of my new shoes I got for my daughters wedding comming up. Size 18 :eek: Im 6'5 and room in my 3 is no problem except for my tug boats.. I had to take the rubber pad off the brake pedal and cut a 1/4 inch off the right side brake pedal so I could work the pedals. It works but the rubber piece will never fit back on again. You should of seen my buddies wiggin out when I took a hacksaw to my new Hummer. I guess I could cut my toes off and wear a 14,,,:rolleyes:

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

how do u insert quotes like that?

im really excited to get my H3. I'm thinking black. anyone have black? or maybe white with tinted windows looks really cool. im gonna check out all u guys's pictures

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

You insert them by clicking "QUOTE" :confused:
I have White with dark tint, adventure package and some chrome, looks great without going overboard.
There was a pic of someone's in black and the rig was out in the snow. It looked great!!!
I live in a dry, dusty area and black just isn't a practical color for that.

I'll take some pics of mine and post them here over the weekend.

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

I really like that u guys all have a 3 and really use it. SOme of u have huge mountains to climb, or dirt roads. But i on the other hand live in Georgia. everythings pavement=) Its not going to get a lot of "REAL" usage. but im still excited nontheless

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Hey Matt19, here's a link to pictures from my off roading with my Black H3. I love black and think it looks tough on a Hummer. The video link at the top of the page is not me. That was another Black H3 that was there and they labeled the video wrong. That was actually Todd they made the video of but I thought my run through the mud was more violent. :)

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

If you are in GA you are even closer to Tellico than a lot of us. Tellico is in Murphy NC and a group of us went up there back in March, had a blast. Talking about making another trip up there sometime this summer if you are interested.

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

lol, it looked like you guys had a fun time. I felt bad for the H1, poor thing tried so many times.
Question tho. The 1 went through a deeper mud than the 3 did right?


I dont have an h3 yet:( . What is Tellico?

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

You have time to get it before we go back. Best way to break it in. I only had 1,050 miles on mine when I head out to go there. Tellico is a OHV area in the national forest up there. From what I have heard it is in the top ten in the nation but not sure. There are all kinds of trails there from the almost a gravel road to the OMG :eek:

When we were there it was one of the two busiest weekends of the year and I do not recall seeing any stock vehicles other than the Hummers in the group. This was my first time out and I can honestly tell you that when we first go to the trails I was saying to myself "holy sh!t what did you get yourself into":) After the first run up trail #5 I was absolutely hooked and totally impressed with the H3. A week before we headed out I talked to a guy I know down here the had been to Tellico with his built Jeep and he though for sure we were going to get in over our heads there. Nothing but a Sunday drive for the Hummers :D

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Matt19...where is GA are you? I know that BlindZebra (in Cary, NC) and I are talking about trying to wheel soon...probably sooner than Tellico (which will probably be late July or early August). If your close enough..might be worth a drive for a weekend trip??? So..get the H3 ASAP!

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

It is between you and I :p :D ;)


WTF, you didn't telll me :mad: ;)

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

BAH!!!! :o
Like I wouldn't have told you..shut up.:D

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

LOL :D

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

lol i'm about 25minutes north of Atlanta. Guys I would love to go to one of those. Sounds really fun! But dont you guys worry about ur hummers?:eek: I know alot of you think its a hummer, u suppose to use it, but what if something bad happens **knock on wood**

Also when u went to Tellico, did your hummer outdo other cars/trucks!??:confused: . Was there any hills that ur hummer could do, and others who have jeeps that are hooked couldnt???:p

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

sweet jesus....

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Of course I don't want anything to happen to it but it was a great time. I ended up with a few trail scars on a couple of wheels and a couple of others ended up with some dents but as far as I know, nobody regretted any of it. Like I mentioned before, I don't recall seeing any stock vehicles there other than ours and you really can compare a stock vehicle to most of what was there. Granted there were a lot of slightly modded vehicle that I don't think would keep up with the Hummers but there were also plenty of rigs like this and they are built for the trail (note the 4 wheel steering) and that is it.

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

x2
6'2" long torso, no sunroof in either H3. I get in my bro-in-law's LUX/sunroof/leather/adjustable seats...and...I never measured it...but I've never noticed the difference. Where's my tape measure? :confused:

But...in my case (Size 11) wearing my "keep my feet from freezing in friggen Alaska" boots in the winter, I do have problems tapping the brake when going for the the throttle.

That was the first mod I was wanting to hit the aftermarket, but seems like no one else has the problem???

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

I'm 6'7" and fit in mine just fine.My dad is 6'5" and has no problems with his either.

Alan06SUT is from the Atlanta area. He came to Tellico w/ us. He had a great time..(he's the one w/ the flat tire,sorry Alan,lol)

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

But the his H2 did a hell of a lot better than his Blazer that got stuck on that little rock right in front of the tire :eek: ;)
(sorry Alan, had to say it)

Get it fixed and bring the Blazer back next time Alan, I think you will have a blast with it.

I'm 6'4" - fit just fine
 

I have the sunroof, no problems. Plenty of adjustment with the seat.

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

hey fellas. is it too much to ask for you tall guys to take a pic of u in ur ride?

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Do you work for the Addams family?;)

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

LOL I was waitin for that one D. I guess my curse was big feet. Got me alot of dates years ago,, if you know what I mean:o

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Yeah, the big ones are always the first to go:D

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Eddie Murphy asked you out? :D

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

6'4" normal porportions and I fit fine. It actually has more than enough leg room and head room with or without the sunroof. Normally I automatically push the seat all the way back and tilt it, in the H3 this is too far away for a comfortable ride.:)

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Oh, and btw - I like headroom with the seat backs fairly vertical. I certainly have enough head room with a sunroof if I am reclining halfway back in the seat, but then it's harder to reach the steering wheel (of course). Might explain some of the differenced in this post.

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

I am assuming Matt19 has made his decision on this, but I thought I'd throw in my $.02 as I was reviewing historical posts. I am 6'3"/228 lbs. and I feel I have ample room in the H3. The door switches are bit hard to reach left handed, so I use and under-the-left arm right handed approach to the window switches. Otherwise, I give the comfort a 9/10, simply because I feel the lumbar pad / adjustment could have been a bit more larger / extreme.

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Overall you will fit...The lumbar is a joke! When moved it does little. However compared to my old Ford Explorer this H3 ride is a dream:beerchug: :beerchug: :beerchug: :grouphug: :grouphug:

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

I am 6'7" tall and fit in the H3 just fine! The fact that I do fit in it is a big point in my book when purchasing a vehicle. Some of the other SUVs out there I fit into, but I seriously don't want an Exhibition, er Expedition, nor do I want something that barely goes off road. Hence, the H3!!

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

I am 6'4" (36" jean inseam), and I too have no problems. I would prob have to agree with "Mike E"; however, it is a big deal and I do wear big shiny black size 14 boots -- so pedal spacing may always be an issue for me.

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

I am 6'2", with an '06 with leather auto seats and a sunroof, and have plenty of room.....the sunroof is a great option....as others have mentioned, go to the dealer and sit in one and take a test drive, I think you will find plenty of room in the H3.

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

LOOK !!!

ALL you tall guys please don't buy the H-3.

Your to tall

PLUS

its leaves more to choose from for me and all my short friends...

OK ?

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Ok, I will go out and get the FJ! NOT!! :D

Re: Am I To Tall?
 

Hey all of us tall people, we have all been telling Matt19 (etc.) how easy and comfortable it is for us to fit into our H3. I guess what we forgot to tell him is just don't sit in the backseat. While you may have some width and headroom in the backseat, I think the leg and feet room is like a budget airline (assuming you also have tall people in the front).

My friends and I are thinking about a long road trip in December, but I am not sure if four 6'+ people are going to be confortable for the entire journey. What the hell...I'll be driving so to hell with them -LOL.
