I'm not sure I'm willing to risk it. You never know when someone might take offense and try to sue me for emotional distress.

Uh oh! New thread topic!

If you have done the things that I talked about or you were Vehicle Recovery in the Military, I am sorry. I just really hait fakes and stupid people that have no idea what it really takes to get a stuck Hummer out of the mud.)*
I know the H1 is badass off road but I heard the older ones with the 700R4s in them would burn up the transmission in the mud. Any truth to that?

I imagine they solved that problem by now.

Ok I didn't think that you were that stupid! That FUC*ING jeep is really pissing me off. When I see it again I will take a picture of it so that all in here can enjoy the ridiculing of this stupid kid!

Other than that, the newest H-1 Alpha had the D-max and the Allison. Is that a fix enuf for you? But they were like 100,000 when I saw it on a cadillac lot.

I don't understand exactly why H-1s are so expensive. There's not a whole lot of high end finishes in them, and the production values are lower than those of farm implements.

Maybe the 'gotta have it' factor is justifiably high to see putting a 100K+ sticker on it?

Wow! Those are sweet trucks but 100K?! In some ways it makes sences tho. My guess would have been 70-80K tops.

I don't know for sure how much they really ran, but I was pretty sure that they were that high for the Alpha trim level. I am pretty sure that they are that high for the all independant suspension, the gear reduction hubs and the required Diesel engine. As we all know, diesels are expensive. But not that expensive in my opinion. I also don't think they want everybody owning them. That would be like the worlds biggest bumper car contest!!

The H2 and the H3 has a straight axel in the back and IFS. The H1, similare to the Militarys version, has all independant. The main reason is not to lift it, it is for ground clearance, off road handeling and smoothness. It's not so much for the lifting capabilities, sucks don't it, but if you think about our beloved chevy's IFS and all the lifts out there for it we could overcome the hurdels on the full I.S. OR you could convert it over to straights. But then you would loose your ground clearance and the off road stability and ride quality. But it would all be pointless to do the straights becouse of the Hub reducers. They are what gives that IFS the height to get the 37" tires on the stock Hummer. Try doing that with an H2!
