I am 5' 8" but wear a size 12 shoe, so I am more affected by LENGTH restrictions rather than height!!!

The sunroof should not be an issue. Actually I love having it and think it is a huge benefit.

I also have the lux pkg and love the ease of adjustments and heated seats. My brother in law is 6'5" and he had no problem driving my standard trans H3.

I'm 6'2" and have no problems. I have a base model with manual seats and no sunroof. I even have the seat up a little bit. I think you will be very comfortable in an H3 with or without the sunroof.

6'4" normal porportions and I fit fine. It actually has more than enough leg room and head room with or without the sunroof. Normally I automatically push the seat all the way back and tilt it, in the H3 this is too far away for a comfortable ride.

Oh, and btw - I like headroom with the seat backs fairly vertical. I certainly have enough head room with a sunroof if I am reclining halfway back in the seat, but then it's harder to reach the steering wheel (of course). Might explain some of the differenced in this post.

I am assuming Matt19 has made his decision on this, but I thought I'd throw in my $.02 as I was reviewing historical posts. I am 6'3"/228 lbs. and I feel I have ample room in the H3. The door switches are bit hard to reach left handed, so I use and under-the-left arm right handed approach to the window switches. Otherwise, I give the comfort a 9/10, simply because I feel the lumbar pad / adjustment could have been a bit more larger / extreme.

Overall you will fit...The lumbar is a joke! When moved it does little. However compared to my old Ford Explorer this H3 ride is a dream

I am 6'2", with an '06 with leather auto seats and a sunroof, and have plenty of room.....the sunroof is a great option....as others have mentioned, go to the dealer and sit in one and take a test drive, I think you will find plenty of room in the H3.

Default Re: Am I To Tall?

Hey all of us tall people, we have all been telling Matt19 (etc.) how easy and comfortable it is for us to fit into our H3. I guess what we forgot to tell him is just don't sit in the backseat. While you may have some width and headroom in the backseat, I think the leg and feet room is like a budget airline (assuming you also have tall people in the front).

My friends and I are thinking about a long road trip in December, but I am not sure if four 6'+ people are going to be confortable for the entire journey. What the hell...I'll be driving so to hell with them -LOL.

I'm 6'2" and mine has the sunroof, no problems at all. I don't come close to hitting and I've bounced her around pretty god and never hit my head yet. You will be fine.

I am 6'3", 225 pounds, broad chest/shoulders, 36" inseam. No problems here and I have the 06 Adv. Package with the roof. I had a 1995 Explorer prior to my H3 and the H3 is much more comfortable, especially from a back support perspective. I sometimes wish for more lumbar support but this is because I have lower back issues. For a person without back issues, the support should be excellent.

The only true problem I have is when I have the rear seats down - it cuts down on the movement of the driver's seat (back and forth as well as seat back angle).

Regardless, entering and exiting are not issues.

make sure you get the one without the cup holders! they really get in the way. Do you really use your sunroof? come on be honest. Too hot, too cold, too much noise.. come on you don't use it do you? it just stays coverd up over 80% of the time or more.
