After owning my H3 for one year I traded it for a new 2006 H2 SUT. I loved my H3......but love my H2 even more.

The H3 felt small and I missed having a truck bed to haul stuff. Gas mileage was better with the H3 by 2.5 mpg - combined city/highway. The monsoon system was definately better than the bose system. H2 is more comfortable - better seats, more shoulder/leg room, more/better features. I wouldn't knock either vehicle, both are excellent - just depends on your needs.
