No offense taken but I make no mistake in reference to your posts. So one HP rating is not comparable to another HP rating? I'll leave that alone because it is stupid enough as it is. HP is not the rating most off-roaders or "semi" owners are as concerned with. It's torque. And, please, at least do some research before you spout ignorance. A "semi truck" does not usually have a V6.

I never said anything about a new person with little to no knowledge now did I? No! '

I am not opining on the H3's engine one way or the other. I am simply pointing out that the Hummer line is not one known for "power" and has a very low power-to-weight ratio. It's not that hard of a concept to understand. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Well before you start telling ppl to do more research, you should do it yourself. I DRIVE semi's for a living and everyone of the trucks in out fleet is a 6 cylinder engine. There are few if any 8 cylinder highway deisel engines for semi's. Yes I made a typo when I said V6 and meant inline 6, but you knew what I meant.
You made my point when you said truck owners are concerend with torque more then HP. Thats exactly true and that is why the H1 with 205 HP is not comparable to another line of truck with 300+ HP. The H1 is designed for pulling and climbing..period.
