I would pass on it, seriously. For just a bit more money you can get a Power Wagon with much more power, it can tow, has a winch and front/rear lockers stock, not to mention a solid front axle with electric swaybar disconnects(not too sure about that last one..). H3's don't hold their value, they keep their premium. Gene's Sheister has one used, asking 38k. They retail for 35....new. Affordable has one, didn't see the sticker price on them but guaranteed they're the lowest price you'll get up here.
If it had the 4200 Vortec I6 instead of the anemic I5, I'd like it a little better.
If you want super-capable, get a Rubicon Unlimited. 200 bucks for a budget boost gets you better breakover than the H3. I don't see the H3 doing manchu in the summer, from what I've read about that trail. i wouldn't expect even a Rubicon to do it.
