Depends on the circumstances. The easy answer is the H1. It has capabilitites that the 2 & 3 don't. At the same time there are trails that are too narrow for the H1 the the H3 can easily travel. Due to clearance and depth capabilities I would say the H1. Put good mudders on any of them and they are all good mud trucks.

I agree with 3hummers... H1 is definately alot better offroad truck than the other 2 but it also is alot more wider... So on the tighter trails its a pain. Trust me I went in a REALLY tight trail was high fiving branches with my mirriors the whole time... then just after a deep mudhole there were trees on both sides of it making a very narrow exit... the smaller rigs(jeeps) had lots of room to play so they could power right through... where I only had a few inches on each side and had to crawl through... Now I did make it through the mudpit but had to stop with my rear tires just a bit into the pit still... If I didnt stop I would have bounced my pass side off a tree and do some body damage... so I had to back back into the pit and try to power through again each time the pit would throw me at the tree... so I had to get hooked up so that there was winch power pulling me the other way to finally get out.... so yea H1's are beasts if they have the room but when they dont they do require a bit more finess
