Hey you guys:

You wanted to see pics of the H2 in the same pond that the H1s were in...well here it is. I'm still learning the new camera (these are stills taken from video) so bear with the small size. Hopefully the detail will be okay. Here goes...

Very cool!
Looks like that is about max on the depth limit, yes?

Nice pics! Looks like a lot of fun. You have a good head wave (or whatever they call it) going. That means you're going just the right speed. The "head wave" helps keep the engine dry.

Yeah, as my H2 is setup right now, that would be max depth. I've heard of folks outfitting the H2 with a snorkle similar to the H1s, but not sure how you protect the alternator in that case...have to do some research. However, I'd say that's probably the deepest water I'd be comfortable fording. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Nice! I'm still trying to figure out our video camera too. I have yet to install the software that allows for converting the digital video to .wav format for the Internet.

You weren't joking when you said water up to the front lights; almost to hood height in that 5th shot.

Did any water get in the cabin?

Nope, no water in the cabin at all. Seriously, not a drop!

GREAT driving Kelley! You had a perfect bow wave going on.

As far as the alternator, I wouldn't worry about it. Water won't hurt it as long as you don't get mud and junk in it too.

Kelly,
Did you turn around and try the other direction?

WOO HOO. I'll have to pick one of these up! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Yes, we actually did this pond about four times total. The pics you see are the last time where we were most brave. We started going the opposite direction, uphil on the slick side, then came back down on the slick side to the right. Then we went back uphill through the ruts, and then finally, the pics you see of us coming downhill from the ruts. There was one spot trying to go uphill that we caught on the skid plate because we were lacking clearance, otherwise, it was a champ!

Hey Kelley,

Those pics are awesome!! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif I bet you had a great time!!

We were at S. Lake Tahoe a few weeks ago and we saw at least two dozen H2s roaming the area!! Got me hooked!! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I've been looking at interior cabin pictures and I was wondering if you could tell me how much leg room there is in the 2nd row seat. It looks a little tight back there. Is there enough room to sit in the back and cross your legs male or female style?

Thanks.

Erik

I agree with Phil. I'm 5'5" and when I was driving (towing the boat to the lake) we had two friends in the backseat. One of them was 6'5" (no, that's not a typo) and he commented on how much trouble he has in most production cars, but that the Hummer fit him just fine. I think it has great leg room in the rear seats, but for someone that tall, they need to be sitting behind someone shorter who's driving... http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Hey Extreme, it's a custom job. The guy is willing to make more and the price is much less than others on the market. (For a six or seven foot, you're talking about $799 plus shipping.) If you're interested, contact me offlist.
