I drive/wheel a cherokee because im poor.... If i had more money, i would probably drive/wheel something nicer, Like an JK, LJ, FJ, or yes even an H3.
Plainly put.

This is so funny...lol there are so many hater/bashers on here. Yea this h3 isn't close to stock but neither are alot of the rigs on here and yeah it cost more money than most cherokees but it's a well built rig that would out wheel half or more of the rigs on this site yet it gets bashed just for the name. Man people need to just open there eyes and give props to a well built rig.
This was also built in mind for the for the 'Wounded Warriors' program. No matter the cost, or brand.... I respect it for the time and thought that was put into this machine. It's well done and get used.
Once again if you feel the need to bash....

there was a well built H1 up in danville. jacked up on 37s front and rear custom bumpers, winch, rockers, roof rack, and a cb. it look pretty nice. id love to have one but just the H1. not a fan of the h2-3s. but that one looks nice. both of em do haha.

Nice sig, too.
Looks like a very capable rig.
I've said it once and I'll probably have to say it a dozen more times. The "my MFG is better than yours" argument is pretty old and lame.
Its gotten so bad that even different models of the same MFG fight over which model is the best.
Example...Cherokee vs Wrangler.
Who cares what brand or model it is? Its obvious someone put plenty of hard work and thought into the vehicle, can't we appreciate it?

Im a fan of the h1 and Ive seen videos of them doing some pretty impressive stuff but id rather buy an xj for a few grand, add a lift and lockers and watch it out-wheel a hummer.

Aww shucks, thanks!
I can appreciate anything, and I'm really not into the manufacturing battles. I just think down scaling an H2 and putting it on a Colorado chassis isn't very unique. Engineering standpoint, sure.

Agreed, What partialy made the H1 so great off-road was the independent front and rear suspension ( along with many other features). Nothing they crap out even comes close to the original.

I think they both look like awesome and capable rigs with lots of time and work put into them, which any car or offroading guy should be able to appreciate!
I just wish more people would do that to the H2s and H3s around here, instead of soccer moms getting them chromed out..
Maybe once they get a little older and the prices drop, more people will be able to afford them and build them.

H2 should never have been what was made. You can thank Pop culture for that piece of junk. That vehicle single handily killed the Hummer line. GM had plenty of big SUVs they could have tarted up and pushed. Hummer should have stayed a niche off road vehicle to compete with Jeep.
This should have been the H2
