Questions about the H2

[churchmore]

Well I am a jeep owner...specifically an XJ. I do come over in peace so dont load the fuel the flamethrowers. I just have a few questions about the H2. I belong to jeepforum and have seen some of the battles that have taken place over there. Im not saying I am not jealous to drop that amount of money on a vehicle, if I was out of school I hope I would be able to...only two years till I find out Now in the area I live in the H2s are mainly the mall crawling H2 with the tinted windows 22" spinners and booming systems. I will admit I do have an "H2 Recovery Vehicle" sticker on my Jeep, now I honestly do it to poke fun at some of the neighbors who have them and see the looks of some of the guys in the H2s with huge street tires and bling all over. Anywho onto my questions! They may seem ignorant to you but bear with me. Why does hummer in general choose to use IFS over a SFA?? Now I know in general SFA is stronger and less difficult to work on than IFS. And for some of the wheeling I have done (nothing extreme I have a measly 4" with 31s...dont laugh ) it seems like articulation would be more desireable in certain off-road situations, like rock crawling. Now I know a locker defeats wheels coming off the ground, but something about having all four wheels on the ground makes me feel more stable I guess. Back to my main question why IFS?? Second, I work retail to help get me through college right now, and we have a few customers who have the H2, I have had to help them load objects in the H2 and from my experience it seems for such a large vehicle there is a lack of I would call storage space. Third and last of all is lifting the H2, ive seen Christa and her 6" Fabtech and it looks badass, but back to my stability issue wouldnt that make it even less stable in off camber or wheelstand situations. Well thats all, I hope for a warm welcome. Oh by the way, anyone in the Denver area up for wheeling soon, I finally got my heavy duty trackbar in so I am ready to hit the trails. Most difficult trail I have done is Chinamans, which isnt all that difficult. Her is my rig, nothing too impressive, im shooting for a clean but functional look.


Im on the left if you didnt figure out
