I would have to agree but even as a base model it is better suited for offroading than most of the 4x4s on the market right now.

I think your expectations were just set way to high G-wagen. I will be saving the video to view over and over though

[oneworld]

Tough trucks make for tough crowd. Its pretty cool, about all this talk over these pics and what G-wagen had to say. Give credit were credit is due, the video is great and so are the still shots. Who gives a rats ass about his 500wagen. The video tells the truth, It so happens that I saved the video and the pics, and becuase the rented H3 looks exactly like my lux/offroad pac H3-sunroof > I sent the video to all my freinds. My brother called me at 7:30 yesterday morning (pissed) to ask me why I didnt take him with me four wheeling, SO I AM GETTING SOME MILAGE OUT OF G-wagens rental.

[FLYINGBADGER2006]

There was a post awhile back about ghey ass H3 commercials. Well that video would make one hell of a commercial. Better than that one freaky H3 commercial with the floating ballet people and their stupid stools. I mean take this video and mix it up with some other off-roading vids of H3 owners tearing it up in the woods or in the desert and compile them together and mix it with some cool rock music and Bam! You have a real H3 commercial.

[NEOCON1]

so the troll took his pix and went home ? WTF LOL

ok wagon boy since you think the H3 is such a piece of crap for wheelin . take your G@y-wagon or rent one.this is the test , same knoll same speed show me the vid of that i bet your truck will make us laugh . i am really impressed with the landing , i doubt the g-wag will keep all four wheels attached , prove me wrong . i have seen many a wheel fly from busted axles lugs etc . from the still photo i am surprised the 3 didant lose one seeing how off-camber the landing is . come on girly man jump your wagon .

That doesn't help the suspension one bit. All packages get the same soft suspension.

Nevertheless, I didn't start the thread to start a debate over the inadequacies of the truck. I just posted some stuff I thought you guys might enjoy.

as NOLAhummer sezwhere's the beef? or has the link disapeared?

The rest of the pictures on this site speak for themselves. The H3 is more capable offroad than his Beverly Hills soccer moms SUV will ever be. Thats why all 4 of his tires will always be on the concrete. But the pictures are still cool, whether you like the car he drives or not. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

It's not a matter of thick skin or not. It is a matter of knocking someone who doesn't know what the hell they are talking about when trying to knock the ride. I loved the video but that doesn't change that he doesn't know what he is talking about. I wouldn't be surprised if he did it hoping the H3 would break something just so he could share it. If he turned around and did the same thing with soccer mom mobile and showed the video then his opinion would care at least a little weight.

It's funny that you claim that I don't know what I'm talking about and turn around and make an incredibly ignorant statement about the Galaendewagen. It is widely heralded as the best civilian off-road vehicle with the exception of the H1. I take mine off-road 2-3 times per week. It is usually covered in mud. How do you think I know about the place I took the H3?

The G500 is far more composed off-road than the H3. That is a fact. I have taken the same jump in my G500, but at 6,000 lbs, it is too heavy to get air. It has never once broken on me and the alignment has never even been affected. The H3 is totally hosed. The front wheels are pointing in different directions and the transfer case sounds like it's full of gravel. I beat on the G500 harder than any of the guys I go off-roading with. It gets scratched and scraped because it is a truck, plain and simple. It has coil-sprung solid axles and three locking differentials. The H3 cannot compete with it. I don't have video of the H3 failing to make it up my favorite slope that the G500 tackles without skipping a beat. My truck currently has the stock street tires on it and the ride is much better over land than the H3.

That being said, there's no need for you to talk about that which you have no experience with. I've played hard with both and the H3 does not even come close to being in the same league. Of course this is an H3 board, so there will be cries of 'impossible' because my statements are heresy. There's only one person that tried to have a rational discussion about the suspension of the H3 and the rest of the board just started to talk **** about a truck they are unfamiliar with. That is ridiculous.

[HummerJim]

"The H3 is too softly sprung and the suspension bottoms out and slams into the bumpstops. It is a very disconcerting experience"

Not true at all about the suspension being the same on adventure and base/lux. See July Hurf posts, but the spring rates are stiffer on the Adventure package (4550# rear axle leaf vs 3200# base and lux)and the shocks have more suppression with the Adventure and more travel. That's a 40% higher spring rate. Many people here have chosen the base or lux after deciding the Adventure was a little too firm for their likes.
I have driven the Adventure only once as a loaner for three days when mine was being serviced, but offroad the difference is noticeable, while on the highway I would say minimal.

[oneworld]

G-Wagen, no worries about the capabilities of the 500, yes it is a great truck and top notch at that. But the H3 is a third of its cost. Can you tell me honestly how ****ed was the H3 after you jumped it. And dont you think that your 500 would have experienced some problems if you were able to jump it and land it at the same speed. Lets be honest, no stock truck is ment for that kind of abuse, if thats what you want to do with a truck > thats what the after market business is for. And Please take down that self portriat and put back the money shots. Only Kidding as most of the people in this forum should be.
