IMPRESSIVE! Just don't don't take them into the woods- WAY too big and stay away from the mud, sand and small wooden bridges- they'll sink 'cause they're so heavy! And then three's the poor old 6.5 l turbo diesel that's thirsty but gutless... But, there good for gravel roads, I guess.

Yes they're wide, and heavy, though no more than a modern diesel 2500. I guess I like the technical aspects of portal axles, great ground clearance with a pretty low ride height. Great deep water capability with the fording kit. I forget if the Civ. version has CTIS of not.

Granted, for 100K, you could build a much more capable vehicle.

Both of the H1's I drove did have CTIS. Yes they are a chore to drive. The interior is not comfortable anywhere. The center console takes up most of the space in the interior. The interior looks like that of a kit car designed in the '70's. Same for window operation.
