Hence why the h1 is a top breather.. the engine intake is higher then 3ft..
Also the non civilian ones are almost all optioned with snorkels.

The h2 was never intended as an off roader.. it was aimed at a different market..
actually Hummer claims a water fording height for the H1 at 2.5 feet so not over 3 feet now with the short snorkle it's roughly 4.5 feet and the tall snorkle is something like 77"
