Meh, if she wanted one, fine. Taste is subjective. Unless there is something she is doing with it that means it wasn't the rightchoice, well that mightbe different. Frankly, from what I can tell, a "real" Jeep owner has the ***** to be confident with whatever decision he/she makes. Irefer to think that a variety of experiences means a greater understanding. But that might be just me.

To be honest, I like the H3. For a DD that would be my choice. I was looking into getting one but it was out of my price range......so was an H1 Alpha

You bought your old lady a glorified Trailblazer? Do you not love her anymore?

No worries, I say let the H3s handle the soccer mom crowd. As for the the gas/parallel parking comment, the H3 (unlike its big brother the H2) isn't any tougher than any other SUV to park and it gets marginally better mileage than my mostly stock Cherokee. I thought about one for my wife also but the cost was still a little high at the time and the visibility out of the windows kinda sucked for running around the neighborhood with the kids. But it was a neat SUV for the mall...

I wasn't knocking the H3. And if she likes it, that is all that matters. My wife picks out all her cars. (Buys a new car every 3 years) It is her decision, her car, her payments. And if it makes her happy, Great! I do make suggestions, But she never listens to me anyways. I end up using it as much as she does. Which saves me gas and wear on mine. Plus I don't have to do any work on it. So to me it's a win, win situtation.

I feel your pain.

Just remember if she ain't happy you ain't happy.

You couldn't pay me to take an h3. We get them traded in at work every once in a while and they're just awful. They ride like ****, they're uncomfortable, they're covered in plastic, the interior is horrible, you can't see a damn thing out of them, ect, ect.

They are literally the worst thing I've ever driven and we used to be an Oldsmobile dealership and I've driven Pontiac Aztecs.

Then again how much happier would you be without her, the h3, or the car payment?

I get this as many parts are similar. However, I have seen both in off-road (not crawling, more like chasers on Bob's Roads) and the H3 is way more capable than the TrailBlazer/Rainer/Envoy/Bravada/9-7(saab). I don't doubt in chase duty and over land work and in other areas, there is even an advantage over the Cherokee even if fitted out and lifted. Not everything off road involves rocks.

I wish I had the pockets to buy the *cough* old lady *cough* an H1.
