That's quite the old video actually... Tie rod i believe is what popped... If i remember the story correctly, he had to leave it overnight. When they returned, it was vandalized.
sucks don't it...
to the H2's credit... spotter/driver stupidity. They could have traversed that without breaking anything.
Lucky the axles didn't break... 300hp and IFS isn't too friendly. I know first hand with my Chevy. Solid axle conversion is the optimal way for offroading.

Who would waste their time vandalizing a truck that came from the factory already looking vandalized? (hummerhater, do you have an alibi for that night??

Re: Hummer taken down by a few pebbles
Even if the guy was a bag-o-douch hummer driver, and im not saying he was. Vandalizing someones vehicle is pretty chickenshiat. I hate to think what I'd do to someone I caught fckin w my trucks.

Re: Hummer taken down by a few pebbles
Yeah, we've seen this before. Sorry, I can't find joy in someone's misfortune.

That's what i'm about... If you are not afraid to wheel it and break it...
Of course, he did learn the lesson that more gas doesn't always mean go...

Re: Hummer taken down by a few pebbles
This same video is used over and over again to show that Hummers 'are crap.'
I would say if there were even a dozen similar videos that may make a better case. Every time someone says H2s suck, it is this SAME vid to prove it.
How would we like a vid of an FJ's transfer case stuck in 4lo played 500x on Youtube? Or the plastic bumpers falling off? Live and let live I say.
