We are considering a new H3, but are concerned about the new 5 cyl. engine and would appreciate hearing from owners about their reliability, as well as their overall satisfaction with this vehicle. Thanks!

Overall satisfaction = 10
Inline 5 = 10
Gearing = 10
Though some may complain about the power of the inline 5, I find it to be more than adequate. Maybe it has more to do with expectations of the driver.
H2 drivers complained about the lack of power as well in the beginning. Again, about their expectations.
I would buy another one if I had it to do all over again.

I'm totally satisifed with everything on the H3, other than it gets dirty. I need a force field to ward of dirt, salt, etc.

the H3 is an awesome suv. love it.
the only gripe i have is the window controls. they are not conveniently placed. Makes for rolling down the window awkward.
but who rolls down the windows these days!

I don't really have any complaints about the power and I tow my boat with it (3500 lbs). If a V6 or Straight 6 option was available, of course I would take it. My only complaint so far is ridiculous. Not enough storage, as in little cubbies and slots for things like change and cell phones. Stupid huh? but I got used to it with my old car. Oh, and the big complaint? No plug in the stereo for my Ipod.

I agree with all the above, plus I don't like the fact the rear seat doesn't fold flat.
All that said, I knew that before I bought it, I bought it anyway, I have zero regrets (well, except backing it into a tree, but that's a whole other story).
Can't think of anything else out there that gets the looks and attention - plus it's more than a mallcrawler! That's a great combination.

It's a kick-a$$ rig. Every time I drive it I fall in love with it more.
I've never lost that big grin I got the first time I saw one in person.

Great off road, fun to drive. I really enjoy driving it to work evreyday and it's been perfect for family vacations. Power is good around town and in mountians unless you want to run 80 up a mountian pass or pull a big trailer.

I really like the H3...Yes, especially yours Hollie!
The power is a little weak, but so is the power for an H2.
Other than needing wide mud flaps for keeping the sides clean, it's a great design, and would buy one if the oppportunity arose!

Was skeptical at first about the power, but after a few test drives, I bought it. No complaints. Yes, you give up some acceleration, but unless you like to pull out in front of people or drive like speed racer, then it should be fine for you.
