There are Jeep clubs here in Kansas City and actually work with a few guys that belong to it. They know I have a H3 but are willing to have me along!

Dennis, I just watched your Hummer Tribute video and think it is by far the best video on the subject! I sent it to my Jeep friend for his viewing!

I tried a few small hills here and the truck did well. Sometimes I want to try something small and get a little nervous. I need some training wheels with an expert! As always I am more than willing to listen and learn.

Same.

Except I wheel an H2 and I'm 700 lbs lighter than you.

Watch for the Moab trips. PM Neo for the one in September if you can make that arrangment.

Experience or none, it's a good time and you'll meet some pretty big dumb asses. Always a good time.

But be careful.

NEO carries a pair of scissors with him and does this weird ritual everytime they do a bypass.

If you value your pubic hair, watch him like a hawk.

Neo is a good guy. He actually allowed an H2 owner to come into his house during a downpour!

During the June Moab Trip i went to Neo and a few other H3's went up Tipover Challenge and Wipeout Hill with no problems. There was also a H3 that went up Golden steps with no external help and also finished golden spike with no problems. H3's are very capeable vehicles and they can do alot of things that I would have never expected them to do.

I have seen some videos of Moab but mostly with H2's; how does the H3 stand up? I was just checking out some of the smaller clips off of Dennis' YouTube collection and there are some pretty interesting clips of the "dumb asses" trying to do things with some pretty interesting vehicle modifications!

Yeah, it's alway fun.

Supposedly the 3's do ok out there, but I've yet to see actual video of one doing Escalator, Potato Salad Hill and Tip Over.

Doesn't really matter as there are bypasses around the most difficult obstacles.

Besides, there are some things you just may not want to do. For instance, I never went up Lion's Back, and it's not hard. Just a drive to the top of a rock... that's real narrow... and real tall... and eats trucks... and stuff like that. Too damn skeered.

MOAB= best time I've ever had wheelin!!!!!!!

Throw some more 35's, UC protection, rock rails and you'll have a great time in Moab. Also get a spare tierod assembly and tools to change them.

With those mods, you cna have tons of fun in Moab. The H3's do very well in Moab. Being you first time there, you may not want to do some of the harder options, but it sure is fun to watch at the same time. Most every trail there has ways around the harder stuff.

An it is true, Neo is a great guy to go with, a little strange, but fun to wheel with.

I can only imagine what a trip to Moab would be like! I can't wait to drive to Colorado and take to the trails! I am thinking next summer for sure! I might just make a trip out to Moab and then swing back around and hang out in Colorado!
