H3T - Four Wheeler May '08 - early intro review
Just got my copy of May '08 Four Wheeler, and there is a short article about the upcoming H3T. They apparently liked the vehicle!

I do think I'm leaning towards the orange one IFI get one at the end of the year.

I like the looks, and I'm sure the extra bed space would be very practical, but won't the longer wheel base make it less at home off-road?

well I guess the longer wheelbase will make those rock sliders necessity at spots where regular H3 wouldn't touch the ground.. but so far everyone (most reviewers) compliments truck's off-road capability, and I'd also think that folks at Hummer design lab thought that out well with H3T. I guess it depends on the terrain where you drive; if it is heavily rutted trail or with bigger boulders, regular H3 would have advantage?

Everything's a trade-off.
More carrying capacity, less capable off-road.
