2nd H3T Alpha test
Got about 3000 miles on my second H3t Alpha.(1st test report here http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=34738) Went for a color tour up to West Branch Michigan this weekend. Perfect day 70 deg and sunny. Colors about 70%. Averaged 17mpg on the way up. 130 miles up I75 at 75mph. I think the ride was about the same as an H3. I thought the longer wheelbase would give a better ride, but I think the spring rate must be stiffer in the 'T. I believe with a couple hundred pounds in the bed it would be better. Not that it was bad just no better than the H3. Ran some two tracks and some sand hills. I am use to wheeling SWB Jeeps, so the LWB takes some time getting use to. Turning radius is better than my CJ. LWB a definate asset on the hill climbes. Front locker and V8 are great in the sand. Just one pic, should have some more later.
