the point is the JK beats the H3, hands down, if you are looking at only stats.
The JK smokes the H3 offroad in Rubi form and likely beats the H2 as well. Lockers front/rear. SFA. Front anti-sway push-button disconnect, lighter, better angles, HUGE aftermarket support, etc, all puts the JK in position as the better wheeling machine.
Hummer needs to add "extra" additions that beef up the current lineup that mimicks the Rubi idea. The forever discussed Alpha versions that SHOULD be more tailored to the trail and not the street. |

I sure hope that they do 
I could really care less about the whole mine is better than your but do think it is funny when the comparison stats used are a Rubi versus a Base H3 
If I was only buying based on what would be the all around best off road vehicle, maybe I wouldn't have gone with the H3 but considering I don't spend even 10% of my seat time off road, the H3 was the easy choice.

Sucks but they all do that. When I was checking out the FJ Cruiser, all their comparisons were between fully optioned FJs and base H3s (no options). When I brought this up, the salesguy closed the chart and said I obviously knew more than the chart and was I really interested in the FJ or not? I just thanked him for his time and left. lol

x2 - only the JK Rubi Ultd beats the H3 if my book ... and only offroad. The H3 wins in comfort, interior styling, sound system, road noise, etc.

Re: JK vs. H3
Guys! how can you compare a jeep with a Hummer!!! it's like if you say you prefer a movie with John Wayne vs Schwarzy!!! Different generation, different style!
And to me, it looks like when a guy come to explain he has a bigger ... whatever than you, he is not so confident about it!

Re: JK vs. H3
Seems like it's missing a few items...
Stabilitrac
Antilock breaks (though I could have missed this somewhere)
Power locks,windows,ect. On the jeep it's an option
Sirious radio is an option on the jeep
The hard top is an option on the jeep.
In other words I'm not impressed with the Rubicon. The comparison left a few things out to make the jeep look better.
