Here's a shot of Travis (our HummerTeam Captain) in his Red H1.
Very cool pics, Tex! Looks like you shaved your mustache for the event. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif Interesting how the black H1 in the top picture looks bigger than the H2, when we know, besides the width, is not the case. Looks like a fun day.

Great pics, looks like a good time.
That first pic kinda blew me away when I realized that's about 500k worth of vehicles right there.
What kind of tires on the blue wagon climbing the hill? That hill looks pretty greasy, but I'm guessing he made it right up?

I'm not sure what kind of tires Blue-boy has. Looks like some kind of Mudders. Yep, he and several others made it up just fine.
It was a fun day! Since it had recently rained, there were some pretty good mudholes. Here's an H1 taking one pretty fast.

Great Pics Red...That splash one is great! The blue H1 has 38" Swampers, I think...Driving down the highway, it sounds like a small plane about to take off... Our caravan was 11 Hummers total today- We did draw some attention!

More Pics from DFW Feb 09. I wanted to wait and see if Travis would admit his buddy got his new Red H1 stuck. The pics are too good not to show here. Hope you don't mind Travis. Hehe!

Here's a shot after they pulled it out. Nowthis will be a clean-up job. They pulled the plug in the front floor board to let the water drain out.

These are the kind of pix I want to see - thanks. I've been seeing too many clean Hummers lately, including mine, so no offense to any one.
Do you happen to know what that device is on the Red H1? The black box mounted near the driver's side - looks like optics of some sort or a camera?

Assuming this is the same hummer.
It's a Night Vision Scope.

Yep, that's Travis' Red H1 with a Raytheon IR night vision set-up. It's not just a "light gathering" night vision system, it's the real IR Heat sensing system.

So do you get that thing at a discount? How much would a normal civilian have to pay? http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif
Does the Raytheon plant sell these at their gift shop off 75?

Here is a cool "demo" of what the night vision sees...

Those things are so expensive, I'd be afraid somebody would steal it whil I was parked somewhere. Is there a quick release mechanism or something so you can store it inside?
