Did a little 4 wheelin this weekend...Hummer Style

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Did a little 4 wheeling over the weekend. Let me tell you what. There is no substitute when it comes to 4 wheel drive. Outstanding vehicle. We did stuff that you just didn't think would be possible. Like scaling a 3 story 70 degree cliff. I talking almost straight up. When sitting in the seat, you felt like you were either going up in the space shuttle or you were about to flip backwards and get crushed after tumbling end over end to your death. And let me also say, the H2 is amazing but it is just a toy compared to the badboy H1. Those puppies are the real deal in 4 wheel.

Simply a great, great time. Shot skeet, caught perch, crappie, bluegill, brown and rainbow trout and smallmouth bass. The only fish in the pond we missed were the Muskies and Northerns. The best fish pond I have ever fished. Between 2 of us, we caught 50 fish in less than 1 hour.

You can't see it in the last picture in post above but there is a 3 foot hole where the pond is and we went into and out of the hole without getting stuck but the property owner, who has never been stuck in his H1, never made it out of It took 2 vehicles to yank him out.

Truck was best of show at the beginning for cleanest and finished in the top 3 for dirtyest ride. And this was after 30 minutes picking crap off just so we could drive it home. LOL.

At one point we had 30 Hummers travelling together. Here were a couple of them.

Looks like it was a blast Bryan, I love H1'S, an't say the same for the H2 though. I still would love take either one off roading.

I went four wheelin in an 00' Olds Bravada. It looked alot better the that. The white paint was unable to come through all the mud! It was a brown car for the day. Ohh yeah, I bent the frame and did a lil damage to other things. . .

Not bad, here are a few of some land rovers. Man I love my rover. Only thing better off-road is the H1 and even that in't true in all areas.

Not bad. I have never driven a Rover in the clover so I can't make a direct comparison. All I can say is the H2 will do things you don't think a vehicle can do and the H1 takes it one giant step further.

I have driven a few H1, H2, Rover Discovery, Range Rover, a Series II Rover, and one Rover Defender off road. All are great and all can go just about anywhere stock. The Rovers are mostly in between the H1 and H2 for off road ability. The Discovery looks top heavy, but you'd be suprised as to just how well they move around. Where the big difference between the H1 and rovers lay is that the rovers can go in more tight areas compared to the H1. Ask any mainstream off-roaders and most will tell you the only thing better than a rover is a Hummer H1. I have a ton more pics of Rovers off road if you want more I can post some.

Post 'em up. We had guys from AM General who brought some professional drivers to teach some tricks. I think we convinced them to bring some other 'off-road' vehicles to the meet in October. We want to be able to hook them up and drag them into ponds, push 'em off a cliff, just create mayhem. I think if we would have had some ideas that didn't result in the total destruction of these vehicles, they would have been more receptive. LOL>
