Most of those with negative comments about the H3, have never off-roaded their own Jeeps, Toyotas etc.
My neighbors son, Kyle, is a great example...his Jeep can do anything and H3s can't. Well one night, his mom comes over and asks if I can pull his jeep out of a mud pit.
We traveled to the pit, and there he was, buried up to his axles in slick, clay mud. I first had to pull his buddy's Jeep out to gain access. Not easy, but I did it. I knew, I could not pull out Kyle, he was buried way too deep, but I tried a few times.
He was finally pulled out by a heavily modiified Chevy P/U with a Duaramax, and a large set of mud tires. It took the Dmax P/U about a half-hour to pull him out.
The next day he came over and thanked me for trying, and was amazed I did not get stuck, as his buddy did, when I tried to pull him out. I believe he earned some respect for the H3, but I believe what he and his friends actually learned is any vehicle can get stuck, and just because a vehicle can't pull out another vehicle, does not mean that vehicle is a poor off-roading vehicle.
Most of the off-roaders around here are into mud, and I HATE MUD.
