ROAD TRIP !!!!!
Leaving in a few hours to really break in the H3. Nothing as exciting as Moab, just a 2600 trip from the Midwest to Orlando to give some money to the Mouse, then on to Sanibel island for a week of R&R.
I've got about 485 miles on the H3 currently, so it is really new.

I'll be on the look out for a Shadow Green H3 with out of state tags. From what I hear it's fun to run over that rat with an H3
Have a safe trip.

Re: ROAD TRIP !!!!!
First leg of journey finished. Had to work half a day, so only got in about 8 hours driving.
No Complaints.
Haven't calculated gas mileage yet ( don't care that much, TIME is also a non-renewable resource ). Averaged between 70-75 mph.
Seats where fine, nice and firm..not a lot of lateral support, but it's not like I'm going to be throwing it around the corners.
Went through a couple very heavy downpours..always felt in control.
Did notice more downshifting than I'm used to when using the cruise on long upgrades.
Power was adequate, you just have to know what you have to work with and drive accordingly.
All in all a very competant highway cruiser for a 4x4.
Tire noise from the 33" Bridgestone Duelers less than you would expect.

.
Have to agree the Dueler A/T aren't that bad. I had the Dueler A/T Revo on my Blazer. Awsome offroad but the road noise was a lot worse. I them went to Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor and they made less noise than the A/T's. My next tire on the Hummer will be the Wranglers.
