    Ask forgiveness, not permission.

    really this isn't all that big of a deal.

    Anyone that rockclimbs knows that the tie rods are the weakest link in most IFS systems.

    Zu tie rods break like nobody's business. Why do you think JoeD makes tie rod guards and about 18 different people are working on making beefier tie rods...

    the part of the video that makes it funny though is the guy in the end that goes "did you see the wheels?!?!"

    yeah man, kinda hard to miss them :P

    True, but the H2's 6000+ pound curb weight doesn't help matters much.

    Ah ya, saw that a while back. God forbid you actually use an overpriced, luxury, social status, "offroad" vehicle offroad. It just might STAY offroad until hauled away, hahaha.

    Hummer

    This is not a Hummer, it's a Chevy Tahoe on steroids built for soccer moms. It is the insult to the American public. I drove an H1 of a friend of mine, portal axles and the whole package that makes it an off road vehicle.
    From Unimog to VX - a serious change in velocity - a small sacrifice in voracity.

    this is Sad

    I would hate to be this H2 owner. Not only did he get caught up on a stump in the middle of a parking lot but also had to be towed by a 22 year old jeep.
