For a 4 door pickup, the H3T will destroy the "competition." There aren't ANY pickup trucks that will follow the H3T, period.
You can't compare a pickup against a non-pickup.

How about the Dodge Power Wagon?
It's in the same league and size of the H3T though.

Just compare the approach and departure angles and ground clearance of the Power Wagon vs the H3T and that'll answer your question. It's sad that a rig that size can't compete against a midsize.
The only thing it has over the H3T is the breakover angle, but what good is the breakover angle if you can't get ON TOP of the obstacle to begin with.
In addition, the H3T can fit 35"s stock, the Power Wagon can't. The Power Wagon is a hicks idea of what makes a good offroad vehicle, just like all those other pickups with 4x4 stickers plastered all over them.

Re: Build your own H3t
What does everyone think of the new wheels offered with the base and adventure package?
I would have to see them in person to decide.

35's do fit. At least my neighbors does. He doesn;t wheel it though.
On a side note, the comparison (again) isn;t apples to apples. We're talking about a mid sized truck vs full sized truck.
the breakover angle isn;t the best!! I agree! But for offroading, it's Ok. It's no rock crawler, but will be very compitent. Look at all the Tacoma PU's and Nissans out there wheeling. I think it will compete very well with those.
I can already see 4Wheeler mag having a shootout between them.
level the front end, 35's and I think it will go almost everywhere the H3 does. Put a lift on it to increase the rocker panel's heoght, and I think it would be a really great trail rig.
So how much longer til we see them rolling into the dealers? I'm betting a realistic 30 to 45 days out.
