Some of my offroad buddies want me to go out as well, but I keep telling them to wait for my Mickeys to come and then I will tear up the trails with them. But I am the same way, any scratch and I freak out!

Thing is, once you get the first scratch then it slowly does not matter as much anymore and most of the marks can be polished out.
These trucks were made to wheel and if you never take it off road than you are really missing out on the entire Hummer experience.

For what it's worth, I have wheeled my 07 tactical since day one and it has been scratched and chipped, not major but it has some minor war wounds. I am all stock and owned a Wrangler that was all stock, the H3 is the winner hands down on and off road...but you all knew that already. I would look at the opportunity to go with other vehicles as a lucky break...how better to explore your H3 limits without worrying about getting it back out. But you may want to go outside and give your H3 a good wax job and decide if you really want to put the first INTENTIONAL mark on it, after the first one you will flinch much less for each new cratch or chip, but your smile will just keep getting bigger, these really do rock off-road.

Liz-

I'm a CFOT'er on occasion and we share similar tastes-

My gargage has an '01 Z06 with 408rwhp, '00 Wrangler on 37"s (locked f/r), and an '07 H3 Adventure on 35"s. Too bad you are so far away, my wife would love the company on the trail!

Take the H3 offroad, just get rid of the skinny street tires. You will be impressed with the ride!

Sorry if it seemed that way.

It was meant as an explanation for why I just did'nt simply post a link to the other site and instead said to PM me for further info.

Gunner I wasn't worried, just trying to put out any fires I started (smokey the bear raised me good )

valleysniper sounds like you need to go to some offroad parks, the places I've been there's spots that will swallow your truck whole! There are always limits for your rig until you get a Hummer Monster truck like Lynch has -
