in addition to what Sheriff said the 07's also got a boost from 220 HP to 242HP and the torque went up from 220 Lb-Ft of torque to 242 Lb-Ft of torque. It may not seem like a lot but 22 more horsepower on a car of this weight makes a difference. I know when i bought mine I also looked atthe '06's cause i really wanted green as the color but as soon as i drove the '07 i noticed the power difference, and sacraficed the color for that added power.

Just got an 06 Adventure, same as posted before the $ made the difference for me. 24,XXX miles, just check the values online at Kelly Blue book & NADA, do a mechanical check, Buy it if you think its a deal, then the most important step is to try and wear it out! Post pics and stories.

Enjoy the hunt and good luck.

Yeaaaahhhh, no! That's what I thought too. I got a speeding ticket for 6 over near OBX last year. I told the cop that it took me the last 4 miles and 120 hail marys to get it up that fast. He didn't even crack a smile. Just wrote me the ticket and told me to slow down.

Still in my 06 H3, and I have to give it two thumbs way down. Too many problems, way under-powered, low-tech interior, and super uncomfortable backseats. The only thing I really like about my H3 is the look, and the level of safety I feel while driving it.
