Funny, I don't remember hearing how bad the H2 was when I was pulling her hydro-locked H1 out of the water and up the 70 dune.

And I don't remember hearing how the H2 sucked when I was towing the H1(with 12psi in the tires) up the dune and 1 1/2 miles across the sand to the parking lot.

Great Photos and well put. No need to hate a vehicle. Enjoy what you ride and ride what you enjoy!

Kill'em all with a smile on your face as you enjoy life while they are miserable in their own existence.

Hmmmmm.....let's think about this....

Something that is SUPER high-maintianance, costly to own, slow, unreliable, sucks money like there's no tomorrow, doesn't work when you need it to, likely to breakdown, bulky, wide, needs lots of attention and no matter how much you do it always wants more....

See what I mean, why buy an H1 when you can just get married and have the same experience!

No photoshopping. Those are authentic pics. The top pic was from my phone. The bottom pic I cut & enlarged the plate so it could be seen better.

I have an H1 now, but almost decided to buy an H2 in '03. Both are really Fun vehicles, just your choice what to drive. I don't like or dislike anyone because they drive a chevy, dodge or jeep(even though I would't), so I'm its wierd why H1 owner & H2 owners wouldn't like the other.

For the runs/events we do in Colorado, it doesn't matter if it's a H1, H2 or skateboard - just come & have a good time on the trail with the trucks.

I wonder what will happen when the H3 comes out - maybe one of the H1 or H2 groups convinces the H3 owner's go to to their "side" they can gang up on the other http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Whats really Ironic is the fact I hang out over at Sandlake duners. They have a fun web site & are always having rides out to Sandlake.

Nice find Yetti. I didn't know that forum existed. I'll be sure to uphold the Hummer honor over there.

Every time we're down there ripping around everyone stops to watch the Hummers play. We get so many guys coming up to us saying how "bad-ass" they are.

Leave it too Oregon to turn fine suvs into a political debate. I live here in Eastern Oregon and have the H2 and a few of my buddies drive H1s. We enjoy the differences between the two and enjoy the experience of being friends. Being the only Hummer in town for over a year, I round up the locals with jeeps, cheverolets, fords, dodges, and toyotas for the trek across the mountain. I have lead every adventure and it takes two of them to pull me out when I get stuck but we all laugh and keep on goin. I get stuck a lot less these days since figuring which 4x4 option works best for which situation. I enjoy the forum and love the input except the homo minded yuppies who just wish they could have a hummer. Thanks guys and gals.

That shouldn't be nessary. the folks at the Sandlake forum don't take kindly to being disc'd while tring to enjoy their sport. I know you would be as welcome as I if you showed up at one of there beach clean ups or other events.

Those are nice pic's drtyfn. I only wish you had posted the one where all 4 tires were off the ground( of your H2).
We'll have to keep an eye out for the locals. OH YEAH!! They must be the ones that sit on their bikes while the Hummers Play!!

By the way, GoneGolfing, when you get together with all your "friends" in eastern Oregon next time, be sure and sing some Cum Bayah.

Sunday the 16th.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif
So far we've got you(H2), me(Uber H2), Scott(H2), Rod(H1) and possibly Emily(H2SUT). Perfect sized party.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Timothy lake sounds like fun what with all of the recent snow. Sand first, snow next.

Yetti, I didn't mean to give the impression I was going to start anything over there, just uphold the honor of the Hummers. Just making sure only the facts get told with no embellishments or exaggerations added.

It turns out one of the guys on there and I have a mutual friend. Small world.

Sand Lake is located 15 miles south of Tillamook, Oregon right on the beach.
It's called Sand Lake Recreation Area.
