The rubicon seems better for offroading stock but on the street the H3 would be better ride quality and have leather. The Jk is avialable with all the same options other than leather but also has a removeable top and doors.

Here in ST. louis, the H3 is known as the SUV for the soccer mom whos husband cant afford an H2. The jeep is known as offroading fun vehicle with poor gas mileage and rough ride. For me I am leaning toward the Jk, as I would rather have a fun vehicle with removeable top and doors and not have to worry if they kid spills something in the interior, just pull the carpet, and hose it out. If dont plan on going off road much and want luxury and you have low self esteem and need attention get the H3!

You're so witty! Your boyfriend really must love that quality in you. :lame:

I saw a new JK 4 door at Paragon today. Too bad it just sat in the parking lot and didn't come out with us... :(

the point is the JK beats the H3, hands down, if you are looking at only stats.

The JK smokes the H3 offroad in Rubi form and likely beats the H2 as well. Lockers front/rear. SFA. Front anti-sway push-button disconnect, lighter, better angles, HUGE aftermarket support, etc, all puts the JK in position as the better wheeling machine.

Hummer needs to add "extra" additions that beef up the current lineup that mimicks the Rubi idea. The forever discussed Alpha versions that SHOULD be more tailored to the trail and not the street.

I sure hope that they do :iagree:

I could really care less about the whole mine is better than your but do think it is funny when the comparison stats used are a Rubi versus a Base H3 :twak: ;)

If I was only buying based on what would be the all around best off road vehicle, maybe I wouldn't have gone with the H3 but considering I don't spend even 10% of my seat time off road, the H3 was the easy choice.

Re: JK vs. H3

Seems like it's missing a few items...
Stabilitrac
Antilock breaks (though I could have missed this somewhere)
Power locks,windows,ect. On the jeep it's an option
Sirious radio is an option on the jeep
The hard top is an option on the jeep.

In other words I'm not impressed with the Rubicon. The comparison left a few things out to make the jeep look better.

Re: JK vs. H3

I can't even believe we are having this debate! Who in their right mind would choose a Jeep (Of which the world is already overpopulated with) over a Hummer H3? Both vehicles will get you there on or off the road, but the H3 gets more attention, is more comfortable, and looks cooler than a tired old Jeep. Those of you who say buy the Jeep shouldn't even be on this forum!

Speaking of the highly coveted "4-Wheel & Off-Road's 2007 4x4 of the Year" award that 'buy_a_legend' speaks of...

Guess what won the same award in 2003..............a Lexus.

AND

One of many things I learned in the U. S. Military was

DON'T STICK YOUR NOSE WHERE IT DON'T BELONG...

I believe that was taught in all the services, ARMY, NAVY, MARINE CORP, COAST GUARD & AIR FORCE...

SO

The question is why are you posting here?

Sucks but they all do that. When I was checking out the FJ Cruiser, all their comparisons were between fully optioned FJs and base H3s (no options). When I brought this up, the salesguy closed the chart and said I obviously knew more than the chart and was I really interested in the FJ or not? I just thanked him for his time and left. lol

x2 - only the JK Rubi Ultd beats the H3 if my book ... and only offroad. The H3 wins in comfort, interior styling, sound system, road noise, etc.
