Probably old news, but I searched Sound Off! for it and didn't find anything, but whatever.

Can't even drive over rocks. Tsk.
Looks like it broke a wheel on the way over, pretty sad.
Like the guy in the video said, it looks like he popped a tie rod.
Not really that big of a deal, but funny as all the H2 is, is a chevy tahoe with a ton of extra body on it, and im sure all the steering linkage is right from it, a truck with at least 1500 pounds less mass.
Over priced-poseurmobile.
Like pretty much all SUVs, it was likely designed with paved driving only in mind. The H1 on the other hand...
LOL. What a piece of shit.
You know its not a big deal though, because nobody who actually owns an H2 will ever take it off road.
That's fucking awesome.
I'll take an Escalade any day.
I'll take something that actually gets over 15mpg.
But you have to admit the H2 is a really cool looking truck. Which is all it has to be. Hummer + looks cool = sold to yuppies everywhere.

The H2 looks like shit and is overpriced, but this would happen to any SUV or truck (broken tie rod).
Buahahaha. Owned. I just love that crunching sound as he tries to back up.
1.) The H2 gets much less than 15 miles to the gallon. think 3 or 4.Quote:

The H2 is not required to have an EPA mileage rating, GM claims it gets 10-13 mpg. Most/all publications seem to agree with that estimate. The Escalade gets EPA 14-18mpg, which is where I drew the 15 from.
The H1 gets anywhere from 3 to 9 mpg, depending on who you ask.
The Jeep Cherokee and Grand Cherokee, Any land rover and the Toyota Land cruiser all are very capable off road vehicles. (other than the Land Cruiser being a piece of shit)Quote:

Man, the Cherokee was such a good vehicle. Then they dashed it for the faggy Liberty. Meh.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee is probably the only SUV that has any sport in it. The non grand as well.Quote:

Take it into the real extremes and you'll find they are more than incapable of handling what they are supposed to.
The original Hummer was bad ass, with a clearance level beyond any 4wd on the market. The H2 however, is nothing but a glorified SUV.
CJs own you all.
Maybe there's just alot of lesbians out that way? Seriously, ever since Subaru actively marketed to them a few years back, I see a TON of mean-looking short-haired "womyn" around here with UCONN women's basketball stickers on their Subarus ( they even have one putting down the mens team ) and Rainbow stickers to boot. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's just an observation really.Quote:

Sorry, but my 87 Landcruiser utterly pwns every other vehicle in existence. Thought I'd mention.

Everyone buys Ford, Chevy, or Dodge because of all the Texas specific advertising, imo. 'If you're not buying Ford, etc, you're not a real Texan.' I drive a Nissan Pathfinder, and I have no delusions about its offroad capabilities. It'd do fine in most off-road situations, but something like that video would tear it a new ahole. :pQuote:

The only way I'd even own a HMMVW is if it came with the bullet-proof kit and a 50 Caliber/TOW Launcher, or 40MM Automatic Grenade launcher on the top. I heard you can actually buy military surplus HMMVW with the bullet-proof kit and turret (no gun included however).

Chevy lacks any memorable Texas specific adverts.
a Volvo Cross Country is pretty solid though on and off road, but nothing in my opinion stacks up to the Cherokee, or the rest of the Jeep line (barring the Libery and even it is better than most).
My Dad wants me to get a Durango. I want him to STFU. I'm pretty set on a Cherokee.
I got a Chevy Trailblazer 03.
It's pretty cool. Never driven it off road or anything but I plan to sometime soon.
Heck that new rally tuned Focus that Ford put out gets respect from me.
What does that say about this piece of crap?
