After thinking about this alot, I'd have to go with the FJ. Just look at how well it does in the snow:

Awesome on ice and snow.

BWAHAHAHA!

"Don't worry, you're nowhere near the tipping angle"

That was the most impressive show of snow handling ability I've seen from any vehicle, ever, hands down. :jump: :jump: :dancingbanana: :giggling: ;) :shhh:

I believe the H3 rims have something that will allow you to manually air down the tires to 15 PSI or lower (without worrying about the bead) Is this true for the H3? I wonder about the JK?

Is this really something inovative or can basically any rim do this?

Another question, I read the JK can only use 35 inch tires with a 2.5 inch lift kit or more plus back spacing. I am not worried about the lift but the back spacing I would worry about. Is this true?

I'd be more worried about the lift than the backspacing. We've all seen the results of a lifted Jeep when it gets sideways!;)

Sorry buddy... but those things can be found in the JK now... I love my Heated Leather seats, great Karmon sound system with navigation, power windows/locks and cruise control - and better ground clearance... Oh... and don't even get me started on when I put the top down... But, don't worry.. we don't discriminate ... Much - I would pull over and help you out of the ditch :)

I don't know how I missed this thread. I would just like to add that I have driven the JK...I wasn't super impressed. I have also crashed the JK. it did well. I only hope the Hummers crash equally as well

One thing to consider.

Last month my wife and I drove our 07 H3 with adventure package to Moab from Houston. It was as comfortable as our Chevy Tahoe. It was a 2700 mile round trip.

When we got to Moab, we did really well on the trails.

Is it as capable as a Rubicon at Moab? No, but almost.

Would I want to drive a Rubicon on a 2700 mile round trip? I don't think so. I would be crippled and deaf. I have friends who complain about how uncomfortable the Jeep is in driving around in Houston traffic.

The H3 is a better all around vehicle. The H3 with the adventure package exceeds my off road abilites. Just my 2 cents.

Unless you are spending most of your vehicle time off road. The H3 is superior overall. The H3 offers a better blend of creature comforts combined with ability in the field....:)

My wife has a JK I have an H3. She always wants to drive the H3, I always want to drive the JK. They are both equally fun/exciting to drive. Why not just have the best of both worlds and buy one of each??
