"The H3 is too softly sprung and the suspension bottoms out and slams into the bumpstops. It is a very disconcerting experience"
Not true at all about the suspension being the same on adventure and base/lux. See July Hurf posts, but the spring rates are stiffer on the Adventure package (4550# rear axle leaf vs 3200# base and lux)and the shocks have more suppression with the Adventure and more travel. That's a 40% higher spring rate. Many people here have chosen the base or lux after deciding the Adventure was a little too firm for their likes.
I have driven the Adventure only once as a loaner for three days when mine was being serviced, but offroad the difference is noticeable, while on the highway I would say minimal.
