Churchmore:
I bought mine because I just wanted an SUV that I liked driving, however, once I got it I just had to off road it. I remember the first couple of months I had this thing I washed it every week or so, careful where I parked it (door dings) fretted about little scratches, etc... but then I ran into the SoCal Hummer forum and had to try it off road. - What a blast!!! I can see why some people would never off road it, it is almost the same on the interior as an Escalade, ride is smooth but firm and the thing has attitude. I swapped vehicles with a buddy of mine one day that had an Escalade very nice, but I prefer the H2. nuf of the mall rat justification.

My guess is that IFS should give you better clearance than SFA, the question I had was why not IRS and give it more travel, then you would gain the clearance in the front and rear just like the H1.
I come from a road racing background and like the Independent suspension better, but I am just learning about what is important for off road vehicles.
