Default This is why H2's are so much crap

Watch this video and then please tell me what you think. Somehow an H2 manages to get "altitude sickness." Here is the link www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pTSk9IzD_I

Ok, so an H2 is just a fancy looking Hummer body on a Chevy Frame, with hardly any ground clearance from differential, I did'nt realize it weighed so much proportioned to its brake horse power. Having said that, what was the driver thinking when he tried to put the catty up and over that ditch. Sorry not a fair test. The 93' RR I have has got more buzzers and bells, well now it has coil springs so much for air bags.
I'd like to see another test say your typical crappy Jeep cherokee chief or perhaps a real Hummer. The Mechanic at the repair shop in Austin, Tx. said the RR can go places other 4x4's can't. Why is that? Is it because of the " Electronic Traction Control " which by the way that light stays on all the time on mine.
I used to have a Ford F-250 4x4 w/ 351 mod. holly 650 ddbl pumper. Fast but heavy as an Ox I was always getting stuck in the mud in Houston Tx. Kaleechee is sticky like clay. I want to try out my RR off road, but I need to sell it and recoup the money. I bought it for my now X-girl cause I new they were safe.What I did'nt know was how complex they are to diagnose. Still its really a cool truck. Bob

According to YouTube,the video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by British Broadcasting Corporation. This the message you get when the link is clicked. What a bummer.

i don't need a movie to tell me that H2's suck. They have the nerve to make their phone number, 1800-real-4wd i am serious, look it up. thats insane. Take your soccer mom box on wheels and shove it.
