I could live with a H3 (cargo space, passenger room, ammenities, etc). The Rubicon (to me) is about as impractical as a Miata.

Yes, a Wrangler is useless for everyday usage.

Rubicon = Pimped out Wrangler. He probably meant at that price. Rubicon is basically go anywhere ready, minus lift kit + tires?

It's a Canyon/Colorado...nice try though

they're (meaning the Excursion, Hummer, etc) all ugly, inefficient tanks that appeal to soccer moms with fake boobs, white-collar assholes with small dicks, and other republicans.

Tahoe/H2 is based on the full-sized Silverado pickup
H3 is based on the mid-sized Colorado

It's like saying that a 3-Series is the same thing as a 5 or 7-Series

never thought i'd see the day when a hummer was based off an S10.

That's because it's not. The Colorado and Canyon are built off an all new platform.

The Colorado/Canyon have very stiff chassis and are very capable off road to begin with. The H3 will be no slouch in this department.
