Am I To Tall?
Hey fellas. Its nearing. The release of the 2007 models. I called them and since production starts june, they said 6-8wks after production starts, it will hit dealers.
My Question is, am I going to be too tall? Im 6'3 long legs. Will the H3 be too small for me? ANyone else that tall, taller, or near that owns one?

Re: Am I To Tall?
Only way to know is for you to sit in one. One suggestion - get the Luxury package with the fully adjustable seats. The standard cloth seats don't let you adjust the seat height.

My Husband is 6'2, and he has loooong legs. Leg room is not an issue, just make sure you have the power seats in the Lux Package, you'll be fine.

Re: Am I To Tall?
I'm 6'2", have the adventure package and how no problems with the leg room. I think it is actually better than the other SUVs I have had.

Re: Am I To Tall?
I am just over 6' 0". I don't fit in most vehicles because of head room. (Must be a longer torso? ) I've sat in a few H3's (dealership closed but an unlocked H3 on the lot). Just to get a feel for the roominess. Nice headroom without a sunroof. Too small with sunroof (and lux pkg). So that's why you can't get the sunroof option.
Leg room: I think there is more leg room in H3 then my current QX4 (pathfinder clone). So H3 might just be the ticket.

Re: Am I To Tall?
No Sunroof! thats the only option i really wanted. does having a sunroof really take off that much inches from the roof?

Re: Am I To Tall?
Better to just go to a dealership and check it out for yourself -- don't base it on anything else but your own observation..

6'5, long legs, no problems whatsoever. Sunroof is not an issue and I have plenty of headroom and legroom is just perfect.

I wouldn't worry about it at all, there's plenty of room and more room than any other mid-size truck.
And yes, it's very easy to get in and out of

Hate to disagree (not really, but don't want to be obnoxious about it), but I dont' think the sunroof will really make much difference. It does take out some headroom, but if you get the non-power seat it is really low and plenty of headroom. If you get the power seat you can lower it to provide lots of headroom. I think perhaps HummerHippy sat in one that the seat wasn't lowered all the way.
I'm 6"4" and also have a long torso. I have headroom problems in most cars with sunroof, but not in the H3. Leg room is not an issue, I don't drive with the seat all the way back and there is still plenty of room.
Good luck!

I am 5' 8" but wear a size 12 shoe, so I am more affected by LENGTH restrictions rather than height!!!

Re: Am I To Tall?
The sunroof should not be an issue. Actually I love having it and think it is a huge benefit.
I also have the lux pkg and love the ease of adjustments and heated seats. My brother in law is 6'5" and he had no problem driving my standard trans H3.

Re: Am I To Tall?
I'm 6'2" and have no problems. I have a base model with manual seats and no sunroof. I even have the seat up a little bit. I think you will be very comfortable in an H3 with or without the sunroof.
