Both winners! Wrangler and Hummer

Jeep Rubicon and Hummer H3 (File Photo)
I've owned (1)CJ7 (2)YJ (1)TJ (1) WJ. I currently drive an H3T Alpha. Being a former US Marine I've driven the crap out of a hmmwv(M1044).
I have wheeled in both the newer JK and H2. So speaking from experience this debate is strictly Camaro vs Mustang. Two wonderful and capable vehicles with so many variables at play, it comes down to preference. The type of off road terrain you operate on, your budget, styling preference, and desired comfort level just to name a few.
With the proper operator behind the wheel a Rubicon Wrangler and off road package H3 would go just about anywhere human beings could exist.
With Jeep's Harley like heritage and military pedigree I give kudos to Jeep for not screwing it up.
The Hummer now out of production (falling victim to politics and poor marketing), will forever be in my heart.
I am going to try and hold onto my H3T, since in about 15 years it will be just like the CJ8 Scrambler (collectible and a very cool ride).
Keep the shiny side up!
Larry's Comment: Thanks for your unbiased and professional review of both vehicles Gregory.
But most of all, thank you for your service to our country!
