Don't mention anything about the H3's front diffs. Those people tend to over-react by cutting heads off.

Congrats and be careful. Although I hear it's very beautiful in that part of the Middle East.

Also...Be careful if you plan on going to Indianapolis, I'm sure you've heard of the infamous "hip-hop square" or if you do, just be prepared, skip breakfast...they tend to push foreigners to the front!!!!!

Re: I'm off to the HUMMER Academy, Indiana...
You will have the time of your life! The guys at AM General know their stuff and will teach you more than you think about the hummer lineup! It will be an experience you will not soon forget! I'm there at least twice a year since I live a couple hours away and work for Hummer and I always have a blast and learn something new everytime I go! Enjoy!

Not a 100% sure on that yet... H2 & H3 probably as we won't have a H1 course at our Academy here as far as I'm aware....
