yeah, i see your point about wheels + axle. the other clearance specs are dubious as well, though, as presented by alot of brands. Somebody should just take a ruler, an afternoon, and make a same-basis database, that would be funny.
i think i might take a taco in the mud. i also think the factory H2 tires suck in mud, and i'm not sure that the TCS helps yoru cause either, somehow i think i'd rather have wanton runaway wheel spin. but then i really am not a mud bogging guru.
anyway, i think that the "jeep-vs-hummer" as commonly presented boil about down to this:
look you guys, monte carlos are way faster than ferarris!!!
crazy bugger idiots that bought F360s!
I think it would be interesting to sort of have a contest for stock vehicles, and also for build-potential with different vehicles. and for build-potential while retaining reasonable daily driver, or at least occasional street-driver performance. somebody should do that.
