I can get a fully loaded Suburban (leather, power everything, DVD, etc) for around $35,000 or the H3 for around $32,000 (leather, no DVD). Hmmmm...I just can't decide.

Where can you get a new "fully loaded" burban for 35K? Since a "fully loaded" burban cost just over 50K for a 1/2 ton, I can only assume you are talking about trading yours in and than giving them 35K with your trade.
Since I have owned an 03 Z71 Tahoe (only 18" shorter than your burban) and now have an SUT and an H3 on the way, I can tell you my opinion on owning/ driving. The tahoe was a great truck! If i wasn't interested in owning the SUT, and didn't go off-road, this is what I would currently own. Pleanty of room and reides/ handles great! The size of the H2 SUV/ SUT doesn't fell much different when comparing the size. The H2 is just as easy to park as a burban. I have driven the H3, and found it's raod manners to be fine! IT does not have the same power as the Tahoe/ Burban or the interior room for that matter. If you really can get into a burban for that price and need the room, go for it. If you want a smaller vehicle with less power and don't mind less interior room, go for the H3.
Both are two very different vehicels and cannot be compared to each other on the same level. One has unique qualities over the other.
A couple of things to consider though;
1) WARRANTY. 3/ 36,00 Burban or 4/ 50,000 H3
2) New platform and redesigned interior/ exterior next year for the Tahoe/ Burban.
3) In another year you will be able to geta much discounted H3 or the new style burban.
Good luck,
Tim.
