question on h3 4WD system
I am thinking of buying an H3 and have a few questions on the 4WD system. 1st question is what is the difference between the 4HI and 4HI lock. 2nd when i am driving in normal conditions is it in 2HI or is it all wheel drive all the time? and my final question is what is the realistic gas mileage of a stock H3 city and highway.
Thanks Brian |
The H3 has a full time 4WD system. when driving in 4Hi you are getting a 60/40 split rear to front.
when in 4Hi lock you are locking up the center diff and now the power is 50/50 split. There is no 2wheel drive at all. Gas milage seems to vary a bit from truck to truck and based on how you drive, but you expect to get 14-16mpg city and maybe as good as 20 highway. |
Is it the type of 4wd system that all 4 wheels spin at the same time? I have a jeep liberty my wife drives and when that gets stuck in the snow I get 1 front wheel and 1 rear wheel spinning.

I believe also that mpg might be based on where you live. Meaning elevation, air quality, and how much lead is in your foot. I went to New York City (about 600 miles from me) and I got 23.7 mpg, but I also added acetone in my gas tank, when I drove back I got 18.5,,,, horrible just horrible... in the city I average around 16-17
