Re: H3 FAQ - Vehicle Comparison
There's more to an SUV than its off-road prowess, so here's my assessment of vehicle "utility".
The City and Highway Ranges are calculated from the EPA estimate and the total fuel capacity, minus a 2 gallon reserve.
The "Behind 1st", "2nd", and "3rd row" numbers show the cargo space with and without seats folded (or removed)

Re: H3 FAQ - Vehicle Comparison
The Track Width values were taken from manufacturer sources, so they don't all mean the same thing. Some measured from the outside tire edge and some from the tire midpoint. I didn't feel like calculating tire width from the P/LT rating and correcting them, so they are what the manufacturer says they are

Re: H3 FAQ - Vehicle Comparison
And last but not least, safety.
Any values marked n/a were untested by NHTSA.
For the Static Stability Factor, I used the NHTSA numbers when they tested a vehicle with the offroad tire option. In many cases they didn't, so I had to recalculate it using their formula, but adding the extra height from the tires. (btw, higher SSF numbers mean more stability)
Crash ratings are given for the NHTSA test vehicle, which was not always the offroad version.
d - driver side
p - passenger side
sf - front side curtain
sr - rear side curtain
f - front diff
t - fuel tank
tc - transfer case
tx - transmission

Re: H3 FAQ - Vehicle Comparison
Wow! You have been busy. This is all great info!
One comment, I have been in the back of an FJ, and there is no way that it has more space than the H3. My legs were pressed against the front seat, and the front seat was all the way forward. In the H3, at least I can be behind the wheel and have a 6 ft tall person sit behind me in the back.

Oh, that spec is for cargo room with the seats folded flat. I'll note that in the description.
And you're right about the FJ's seats, they're not only small, it's a real a b!tch to get in and out of those suicide doors.
