Default Re: JK vs H3

They are 2 different vehicles.

If I could have both I would love to have a 4-door JK Rubicon and my H3.

I am sure with the front locker, live axle and sway dissconnect the JK would do better in extreame articulation situations. The 4-dr JK wheel base is 116" ( i think) which is pretty long but should be better on the hwy. The JK with a plastic hard top will be noisyer on the hwy for sure (Man I'm getting old) The Jeep is still a Jeep.

I just got back from a 5-day camping trip in the Nevada desert and mountains and am very glad I was in the H3. Great off road and Great mileage and cruising speed even when fully loaded.
