Re: JK vs. H3
What we all think about a jeep person here is correct, doesn't belong!!!!!
BUT
IF YOUR NOT A U. S. MILITARY VETERAN, any service, any time, any location, with a HONORABLE DISCHARGE
watch your tongue ! That person (man or woman) Put their life on the line for YOU and they deserve respect...

Re: JK vs. H3
Sure is a lot of Testerone on here today  I was sitting on the fence as well as the original poster. I love the looks of the H3, I was all set to buy an H3 and my wife wanted to wait and check out the JK unlimited. Long story short, we ended up with a JK unlimited Rubi b/c of the removable tops. That doesn't change the fact that a H3 still turns my head and I love the styling/looks of the hummer lineup. I like the JK as well. I don't think it's so much about this being better than that, they all have their pros/cons, so much as your personal preference. I still want an H3. I think if they ever get around to releasing an Alpha LWB H3 pickup truck that could haul my freaking boat around, I would be right there and replacing the Chevy Tahoe that currently does so well at the grocery getting and boat hauling.
That said, the JK is fun to drive, but it suffers from the same problem as the H3, not enough ooommpphhh in the engine dept in my opinion. It does ok, but still it feels sluggish on the hwy. This is all pretty much common news. I was kind of suprised w/ my gas mileage so far, I am averaging around 18/19 tank on a mostly highway miles commute of 75miles/day. There are a lot of places where the JK could be improved quality wise and fit/finish wise, and I think that one of the other posters hit the nail on the head, the JK unlimited is totally designed to compete with and steal away some of those H3 sales, same thing with the FJ. Now, the big question is, what will Hummer due to up the ante, the balls in their court so to speak. . .

I have to agree and disagree with you here RYD. I agree that somebody that has served our country and received an honorable discharge deserves respect and appreciation for that. At the same time it doesn't mean that they deserve respect in general. If somebody acts like a jackass then that is how they deserved to be treats. The above post about only answering people with 2 purple hearts is something that only a jackass (or AE) that thinks he is better than others would say

I kinda have to agree. It's kinda weird to pull rank on a truck forum or in a debate that has nothing to do with the facts or matter at hand.
But- I am a stay at home mom and so...... gfy's.

I was halfway kidding but thanks.
So now you will listen to me when I say that the JK is better?  And I am speaking to every straight white male that hasn't served because you know you are everyone's problem.
Sweet.
Remember, lots of nose blowing and sh1t wiping going on over here. I am sacrificing my time so that there will't be another trench coat wearing, facial jewelry adorning, welfare riding schmuck running around.....
