Always been a problem and was one of the first complaints when they hit the streets. I have gotten used to it and just position my feet differently. It is an issue for me when off road and trying to BTM though.

Heres a pic of one of my new shoes I got for my daughters wedding comming up. Size 18 Im 6'5 and room in my 3 is no problem except for my tug boats.. I had to take the rubber pad off the brake pedal and cut a 1/4 inch off the right side brake pedal so I could work the pedals. It works but the rubber piece will never fit back on again. You should of seen my buddies wiggin out when I took a hacksaw to my new Hummer. I guess I could cut my toes off and wear a 14,,,

You insert them by clicking "QUOTE"
I have White with dark tint, adventure package and some chrome, looks great without going overboard.
There was a pic of someone's in black and the rig was out in the snow. It looked great!!!
I live in a dry, dusty area and black just isn't a practical color for that.

I'll take some pics of mine and post them here over the weekend.

Hey Matt19, here's a link to pictures from my off roading with my Black H3. I love black and think it looks tough on a Hummer. The video link at the top of the page is not me. That was another Black H3 that was there and they labeled the video wrong. That was actually Todd they made the video of but I thought my run through the mud was more violent.

If you are in GA you are even closer to Tellico than a lot of us. Tellico is in Murphy NC and a group of us went up there back in March, had a blast. Talking about making another trip up there sometime this summer if you are interested.

lol, it looked like you guys had a fun time. I felt bad for the H1, poor thing tried so many times.
Question tho. The 1 went through a deeper mud than the 3 did right?

You have time to get it before we go back. Best way to break it in. I only had 1,050 miles on mine when I head out to go there. Tellico is a OHV area in the national forest up there. From what I have heard it is in the top ten in the nation but not sure. There are all kinds of trails there from the almost a gravel road to the OMG

When we were there it was one of the two busiest weekends of the year and I do not recall seeing any stock vehicles other than the Hummers in the group. This was my first time out and I can honestly tell you that when we first go to the trails I was saying to myself "holy sh!t what did you get yourself into" After the first run up trail #5 I was absolutely hooked and totally impressed with the H3. A week before we headed out I talked to a guy I know down here the had been to Tellico with his built Jeep and he though for sure we were going to get in over our heads there. Nothing but a Sunday drive for the Hummers

Matt19...where is GA are you? I know that BlindZebra (in Cary, NC) and I are talking about trying to wheel soon...probably sooner than Tellico (which will probably be late July or early August). If your close enough..might be worth a drive for a weekend trip??? So..get the H3 ASAP!

Of course I don't want anything to happen to it but it was a great time. I ended up with a few trail scars on a couple of wheels and a couple of others ended up with some dents but as far as I know, nobody regretted any of it. Like I mentioned before, I don't recall seeing any stock vehicles there other than ours and you really can compare a stock vehicle to most of what was there. Granted there were a lot of slightly modded vehicle that I don't think would keep up with the Hummers but there were also plenty of rigs like this and they are built for the trail (note the 4 wheel steering) and that is it.

6'2" long torso, no sunroof in either H3. I get in my bro-in-law's LUX/sunroof/leather/adjustable seats...and...I never measured it...but I've never noticed the difference. Where's my tape measure?

But...in my case (Size 11) wearing my "keep my feet from freezing in friggen Alaska" boots in the winter, I do have problems tapping the brake when going for the the throttle.

That was the first mod I was wanting to hit the aftermarket, but seems like no one else has the problem???

I'm 6'7" and fit in mine just fine.My dad is 6'5" and has no problems with his either.
