Well, that's what you get when you take a fake Hummer offroad.

POS.
I always thought H2's were ugly, I guess they're weak also.

SilverII · 01-02-2005, 03:43 PM

haha...h2 craped out!

bobtex · 01-02-2005, 09:27 PM

Jaylin · 01-03-2005, 12:02 PM

I hate the H2's.

That video was great. I've been on offroad development trips. This type of failure is the most common one on 4x4 offroad vehicles. But capturing a failure with such clarity doesn't happen often. I bet GM engineers will be interested in it -- not that there's much they can do about it. In fact, I'll keep this video for my work. Thanks Ru!

BTW, as much as I hate the H2, neither of these problems are the vehicle's fault. The driver/spotter in the video should have picked a better route. H1 will probably be the only vehicle that can survive this, but the extra weight it has to put on for things like this makes it simply ridiculous for consumers -- not that H2 isn't ridiculous already.

Also, I doubt if you can find an SUV with enough ground clearance to climb out after 2 feet of snow is dumped on it. And contrary to popular belief, spinning the wheels could only hurt when standing still by digging deeper, which the driver did.

Enough said. I don't want to defend the H2 too much. Image. Image...

I work on TCS and VDC systems. In fact, I am working on something directly applicable to this thread. I'd like to say more but shouldn't -- not that it's top secret or anything.

There was a page I saw a while ago about an H2 that crashed a Jeep club offroading event and ended up getting stuck on a stump. They all laughed at him and eventually winched him off.

I submit that people who buy H2s to go offroad are somewhat foolish
