I had an '06 H3 and moved up to the H2 because I liked the increased carrying capacity, it's abilities in the mud and snow, the quietness of the interior, the comfort, and the big V8 with its power. I'm 6 ft 5 and I found the H3 a little on the tight side during long drives and hit my head on the ceiling a few times offroading. The only drawback is that the H2 is a little wide on some of the trails around here, but the H2 does everything my 3 did offroad and little more to boot. They both cost about the same to insure and the 2 gets about 3 mpg less mileage than the H3. Drive both and make up your mind.

I had an H3 originally, and moved to the H2. yes the H2 seats fold flat. The H3 rear seats fold down, but not completely flat. I personally like the H2 for the room and the comfort level on a long ride.....yes they 2's have the rear locker, and you can go bigger on the tire size.

I also went from the H3 to the H2. Yes, the H3 is very nimble, but it will get stuck just as easily as an H2 if you aren't careful. Heck, that is what 4 wheeling is all about. You will get stuck. It did take some time to get used to the girth of the H2, but if you are in IRAQ, you are probably already driving around a Humvee, so it won't be a big deal for you. If where you off-road is going to be tight and you don't want to risk rubbing a few branches down the side of an H2, then by all means, get the H3.

By the time you spend up for an H3 Alpha, I'd go ahead and get the H2. I loved the H3, but I just can't say enough about the off-road capability, size, comfort, and all around fun and respect that an H2 commands.

I have both H2 and H3 ( 07 White H3, 08 Solar Flare H2)
Hands down the H2 (365 days a year /24-7). Just go get it as fast as you can and then you'll stop considering the alternative. Though i guess if you never drive an H2 and just get an H3 you'll be just as happy and prob won't know the difference. But if you do extensive research and drive a new H2 for any extended time, it will be hard to step down.

I appreciate all the input. I'll finally be home in a couple weeks, we'll see what I get. One last question though; what are the changes made to the H2 over the years? I haven't noticed any cosmetecs changed.
