I don't care about your approach angle or departure angle on the H1, H2 or my H3. I have driven my Wrangler on many mountain pass roads in Colorado and spent plenty of time in Moab (my parents on a large farm just south of Montecillo, Utah). I have been everywhere the Hummers have gone. Most all abilities are directly related to experiance and knowing the capabilities of the vehicle. I have even had a relative bring a stock Geo Tracker that I was able to take some places the H2's could not go due to their driver's ability. I have seen H1's stuck so bad it took 3 vehicles with tow straps and winches used for tieoffs to get them out and have seen a pickup go through the same mud hole and not get stuck. Personally I have only been stuck one time I could not get myself out and that was over the headlights in mud with a '83 F150 4x4.

All this talk about which is better is bull. It all depends on preference and personal needs.

I used to race a 500cc enduro for Team Honda in my younger days and even did the Baja race 3yrs in a row, believe me, every vehicle breaks. The Hummer's are no exception.

Heck I just sold a 2000 Expedition that more capabilities than most H2's due to lack of driver ability. (Factory off-road package with 35" tires, no lift)
