Re: Look what i tow!
BTW, is that a fifth wheel in your sut? Never seen that before. Also, I just can't help myself. Sorry, but doesn't that thing smell like a huge porta-potty. Seriously, to pull that around with a hummer has to cost you more than staying at a 5 star hotel. IMO that LIMO-CAMPER is about the worst investment anyone can make. Worse than a boat or a plane!!!

Re: Look what i tow!
Never seen that before..I've seen the huge like coach motor homes pulling Hummers before and other than pulling my boat I've never seen another hummer towing something here that I can remember anyways. By the way does it pull that thing easy or does it struggle a bit?

Re: Look what i tow!
When I realized I could not pull what I wanted to live in, I started pulling the Hummer instead. Definitely saves on gas for the Hummer.

Re: Look what i tow!
Looks like if you turn very sharp at all the trailer will hit your roof. Those 5th wheels are designed for pickup beds, not a 3 ft SUT bed.

Re: Look what i tow!
Its mine, and its not a joke everyone said I couldn't do it so I did it!! I made mine own custom frame mounts and extended the tongue a little. Had a 2500hd and it tows it just as good as that did. if the tans goes I will rebuild it my self no biggy!! Tow every weekend about 90 miles, so far so good. trans temp doen't get above 210 on hard pull, the 2500hd went to 220-230!!

Re: Look what i tow!
You can definitely do a fifth wheel in an H2SUT. There's a guy at the stables that has a silver H2SUT that pulls a fifth wheel horse trailer behind his all over the US for his daughter who also jumps horses like my wife used to. His hitch in the bed was custom made at Midwest 4 Wheeldrive Center - home of Bigfoot - they have an excellent fabrication shop. I know he has the air shocks in the back of his, like mine and he has a vertical steel plate in the front part of the bed restricting rear vision, but protecting the cabin. As far as I know, he hasn't had any transmission issues, but has gone through some brake pads early.

No steering wheel lock. Put the transfer case into neutral. Done. I don't even know it's back there most of the time. Can't see it except in the rear view monitor. When the Prius owners go by, I give them a big smile.   Their sacrifice is well appreciated.

Next year is an Alaskan trip in the initial planning stages, including traveling the Pipeline in the Hummer. From there who knows, I don't.
Fortunately, my ss checks will start in October, otherwise, I could hardly afford it.
