Re: H3 Adventure, 5Speed - scarce
Why don't you order one how you want it?
Mine took about 6 weeks to get it after ordering.

Re: H3 Adventure, 5Speed - scarce
Yes, I can order one, but I believe orders now are for 2009 models. And there's a $7000 - $8000 rebate on all 08's. So I was looking to upgrade and save a little $ at the same time.

Re: H3 Adventure, 5Speed - scarce
This may be stupid, but how will a sun roof change head room clearance ??

Re: H3 Adventure, 5Speed - scarce
If he is really tall he can stick his head out the sunroof.

Re: H3 Adventure, 5Speed - scarce
I have an adventure with the manual and sunroof. I believe the figure is only 5% of H3's have the manual transmission. So your chances are not very good to find the right combo.
How tall are you? I am 6'4" and do not hit my head.
If you order an 09' you could get front and rear lockers.

Re: H3 Adventure, 5Speed - scarce
Sunroof reduces the ceiling inside the cab to give room for the glass to retract under the top of the truck.
I'm only 6'0". But when I sit up straight, my head hits the roof. I bet at 6'4" , yours does too. Yes, I could tilt the seat back, but I still hit my head at times. I had an Infiniti QX4 (Pathfinder), that had a sunroof. I loved the truck but it bugged for for 4 years that I didnt have enough head room in it. And one of the reasons I bought the H3, is because it has enough headroom (when no sunroof is installed).
Wow, about 5% are 5 Speeds. Interesting. Thanks. That would explain it. I knew it was a minority, but didnt think it was that little.
Oh well, I'll keep looking. Wait til the H3T comes to my dealer in a few months. And keeping an eye out for the Hx.

Re: H3 Adventure, 5Speed - scarce
That is too funny, I usually hit my head in my vehicles, but the H3 has been one of the few that I do not. FWIW if I sit straight up and down I hit my head, but I never drive sitting prim and proper.
In 06 I had to order mine to get the manual transmission and the other goodies I wanted.
