H2 slammed...
You guys ever seen anything like this, my brother came across it in another forum. We both got a kick outa it cause we beleive the H2s are a monstrosity. Just thought you would like to see it.
Taken from another forum;
Heres what happened: This chick took her mom and kids out for a ride at 3AM and saw construction and dirt and so forth around the campus. She thought to herself "hey, this is an H2, i saw it in a commercial and it could do anything. Its an all terrain vehicle, right?"
She then procedes to dive around campus for a while and then broke through the cable barrier (took 2 tries) that prevents idiots from running into the schools brand new samaritan statue. she then hit a 1' dirt curb at about 40mph, and then right into the statues cement base. Needless to say, the curb and cement were victorious.
When asked why she did it, she repiled "I wanted to jump the statue, i saw it on tv"
She wasnt drunk or under any kind of influence and yes, the kids were inside when it happened. This is all very true.

Soccer moms + SUV's (Stupid Useless Vehicles) = another General Mistake! (GM)
Just further proof that people really are gullible enough to believe ANYTHING they see on TV. Or that soccer moms and those of that mental capacity and driving dexterity are an inherent hazzard to us all. Ford itself has opted to end the production of the Expedition citing one of the reasons as "it's too big for soccer moms to handle". No, its that soccer moms aren't smart enough behind the wheel and refuse to adjust or accept that they need to adjust their driving style from their yuppie days (before they married the neuro-surgeon or lawyer with all the money) of driving their Honda Civics. Take these vehicles out of the hands of people who buy them for the express purpose of being a freakin' status symbol....because thats ALL they are capable of being behind the wheel of these things....well and another statistic maybe!

Could that really do that much dmg?
Come on
A Dirt curb at 40 mph
1. Poped all 4 tires
2. Broke and bent both rear axels and spings/shockes
3. Ripped the rear tire off it mount, most likly bent
4. Looks like it dropped the gas tank or shattered the rear axel and it on the ground in the back
And then front end dmg ,looks like she was going about 10mph, from the pics looks like it didnt even push the front end in, and it also didnt break or smash the concrete wall thing.
Seems odd to me, but what ever the case... that thing in wrecked!

If my understanding is right all they did for the H2 was drop the body on a Chevy truck frame. The H1 was built on a Ladder Frame and built GOOD!!!!! I kinda liked the H2's until I found out about the Chevy truck frame, If I would ever get one I would have to get an H1.

A freind sent me the pics of one of those awhile back, they do have a look of their own. I don't know if I like it or not
, But hey it can't be all bad being on a Ford Frame and a Supercharged Ford V10 under the hood.
