This is CLEARLY true. Marc.. Forgive the neanderthals here... They know not what they do... Actually... a few of them do... They are just a$$holes. Ignore them.
Yes... The H3 is a little underpowered* but you get used to it. Or you can make mods to it to not only make it a little peppier but also increase your gas mileage. The supercharger is the ultimate option! (Though not for increased gas mileage!) If you have the coin... It may be worth a look.
The automatic transmission does fine if you live in a somewhat flat area. If you live in a mountainous region... You will be constantly dropping into a lower gear and the engine will work like hell to get you there. Still not too bad... But something to think about.
The rear seat doesn't fold down flat* but they do come somewhat close. If you need a flat bed this won't work unless you remove the rear seats. There is another thread around here that shows removing the rear seats to make it flat. Rather extreme... But if that is what you need... It can be done... But not on a regular basis I would think.
Limited sight*... It does have a limited view from the driver's seat. This can be compensated for with spot mirrors and/or a back-up camera.
There is limited onboard computer function*... You DO have OnStar though which will keep you informed of your vehicle status on a monthly basis. If the "check engine" light comes on.. Just call them and they will tell you what is wrong! There are aftermarket Nav systems that can tie in with your onboard computer to give you this info though... It may be an option for you... If you want the added expense.
* These issues are minor (to me)... If you drive the H3 you will LOVE it and all the rest will not matter. You will simply not care! It is a fun truck to drive... I no longer mind being stuck in rush hour traffic!
