Re: Hummer Happening RIP OFF DAMAGE
It's funny this doesn't come up more often (maybe it does and people just don't write about it here). The Dealer sponsored Hummer Happenings I've attended have been chock full of what, in my mind, constitutes 'negligent' behavior including:
Terrible spotting / line recommendation
Advice as to the proper selection of 4-low / 4-Hi / Locker
Poor construction / maintenance of obstacles
I stay (far) away now, because you're right - they're more interested in just getting everybody through and keeping the line moving so that tempers don't start to flare. My advice to anyone new to the off road scene would be to go out with a small group where you've got at least one seasoned vet to show you the ropes and help you protect your truck. If you want to go to a Hummer Happening, get there early, eat the lunch, then leave before you end up with damage you didn't bargain for.
I would definitely write your dealer a complaint letter.
