Jeep versus H3

[PARAGON]

Po-lice officer, how can it be?
You can 'rest everybody but cruel Stagolee
That bad man, oh cruel Stagolee

Billy DeLyon told Stagolee, "Please don't take my life
I got two little babes and a darling, loving wife"
That bad man, oh cruel Stagolee

"What'd I care about your two little babes and darling, loving wife?
You done stole my Stetson hat, I'm bound to take your life."
That bad man, oh cruel Stagolee

Boom boom, boom boom,
Went the forty-four.
Well when I spied Billy DeLyon
He's lyin' down on the floor.
That bad man, oh cruel Stagolee

Gentlemens of the Jury,
What you think of that?
Stagolee killed Billy DeLyon
'bout a five-dollar Stetson hat.
That bad man, oh cruel Stagolee

Standin' on the gallows, head way up high
At twelve o'clock, they killed him, they's all glad to see him die
That bad man, oh cruel Stagolee.

I love my 3, probably the best all around vehicle I have owned, but the Scout was a fine vehicle. Remember, in the wise words of Sir Rodney King, "Can't we all get along"

Haha thats just it I think everyone is getting along great, not too much name calling, and just a good ol shop talkin group, checking numbers. I had a 73 Scout II. 345, 4 speed, good stump puller, again like my FJ40 much like driving a tractor, but agreed one of the best factory wheeling rigs ever produced.

The Jeep Rubicon is probably up there as well in the top 3 best factory capable vehicles. I dont thinkYour problem is your inability to think clearly. that the H2 was supposed to be a capable off roader from the factory, I think the H3 was more headed in that direction. Smaller, lighter, better clearence, bigger tires, etc.Uhm retard, you do know that 35>33, right? But honestly how many people are out there running Moab and The Rubicon daily, a handful, maybe. To the wifeys and the occasional mountain explorer or skiier/snowboarder its more about status then capability, and most 4x4s will get the job done.Or you could just buy an A4 wagon and be a total trolling fag. Try running the Little/Old Sluice or Soup Bowl (Rubicon Trail) in a stock H2, not happening.Try it in a stock Rubi and get back to me. I like H3s and will be buying one, test drove last night, and it will be my first GM vehicle, so just letting everyone know before I get bashed, that I love em, and Im buying one.

Post a picture of the alleged H3 immediately or you're banned.

That is quite possible the dumbest thing I've read today...congratulations! I can't stand to drive the H3. It's way too cramped for me. At 6'6" I simply don't have the room in the front that I do in my H2. The reviews??? Go ahead, read 'em. There are just as many negative reviews about the H3 as there are about the H2. Your comments are about as original as the ones from the Jeep trolls who come here.

LOL...

first H3 v. Jeep ......then H3 v. FJ.........now......H3 v. H2........

compared to what? a VW bug?

There was nothing great about them except that their skin was thick. They were bare bones simple design. We had a fire under the dash, choke cable break, seat bolts break and it simply didn't articulate for a solid axle vehicle. It was horridly unbalanced on the trail and bounced too damn much.

Don't get your feelings hurt. We had a '76 for parts (I think the years are right) and ran the '77. It just didn't cut the mustard unless you modded it a lot which I couldn't afford to do in High School.

You make no sense, and never once did I bash anyone. Grow up. I know my cars, I dont know yours (H3) but I drove it and I liked it, and I will go back and get it if all works out. "Your standard of wheeling is considerably lower than ours." Rockcrawling? Thanks for that ignorant statement of the year. Sport is sport, douche. Whether its duning, snow play or rockcrawling, different vehicles perform better in different situations. You can build any vehicle to do anything better than the next. I was looking for answers, and experience, and if a$$holes like you are the ones driving these rigs I definately dont want to be associated with the likes there of. Obviously 35>33 I see you passed 1st grade. Thats what I was saying that the H3 had bigger tires therefore a step in the right direction of being a more capable off road vehicle, Retard. Who cant read? and for your info the Jeep Rubicon did do those trails stock when it first came out on 31's, so let me look up that issue of 4 Wheel Drive so you can educate yourself.
"You're not much for researching or paying attention, are you?"
Im trying to research, no thanks to your ignorance. and your telling me that they made the H2 to be functional off road? They missed the mark.

If you'll also notice after several posts I said "with all due respect to all".

And let me just run down to the dealer and take picture for you..psshhhht.

Do you guys even read anything? My other posts were about warranty issues and prices, I have driven H3s and most likely will be driving one home tonite, if trying to educate yourself makes you a troll, then so be it. Last I checked we were all adults here, but maybe not. 1st grade, 2nd grade? you tell me. Also if you read all the posts I never said I had experience, but the experience I had was with several other vehicles. Not H3s.

You two are a perfect match then. Just make sure when the two of you figure out how to reproduce, that you use protection. The world can do without anymore of you.

Please, oh god please, DO NOT BUY ONE!

Imagine what that poor H3 will have to go through having you as its driver... Poor thing.

Please, stay away from HUMMER, PLEASE.

You're not going to be pulling your Flagstaff with a Heep.


I thought you were only in D1 status.

If JKs are so capable why do you feel the need to put bigger tires on it?
