Blazer vs Hummer H3

What vehicle do you think is better and why?

Personally I think that the Hummer is just a glorified Blazer that uses more fuel and costs more.

I looked at the hummer add above, and know that I can do all that stuff with the posssible exception of the water crossing through water that deep.

I took a look at the H3 not too long ago... Essentially it's a trailblazer frame/engine... One of the things that concerned me is that they aren't using steel control arms, they're using potmetal. While I'm not meturagist, I just don't think I could feel comfortable with something like that.. That's just me though, and anything outside of the original hummer is just plain fugly.

I was under the impression that the H3 uses the Colorado frame / engine, it is the 5 cylinder. Test drove one, not at all impressed, for the $ you'd think they could have put a better engine / frame etc. Lots of plastic (GM) and rlith is correct about the use of crappy metal, too.
