Hummer H3 For the Hummer driver who wants the rugged look and off road capabilities of the Hummer, but in a smaller size and with a more fuel economy friendly engine.

Hummer didn't survive offloading last weekend.

Seriously though, here is about one of the worst "off road" vehicles made climbing the equivelant of those videos of Hummers with lockers.

Dude- Are you really equating climbing over a smooth, constant grade, small rock hill like Snoopy's to making it through Hell's Revenge Escalator? Seriously?

1) Go to YouTube
2) Type in 'Hells Revenge Escalator'
3) Watch a few
4) Come back here and tell us again how the little bump you linked is anything like the Escalator, which the stock H3 made look easy.

Here's a few to get you started to show you what the Escalator is really about:

Jeep almost tips on Escalator on Hells Revenge HD - YouTube

Escalator tip over ( my bad!) - YouTube

Hells revenge roll over - YouTube

Now go back and watch the bone-stock Hummer H3 walk up that same exact trail.

And for fun, here's a SWB Jeep taking on a little hill that you'd describe like a "steep driveway" (FF to the 2:00 mark)

Hell's Revenge - Tip Over Challenge - YouTube

OK, that last one really is not too fair considering it was driver error. I just was making my point about SWB Jeeps.

XLR8N > You're missing his point, he only uses the H3 for "fishing"
Hopefully he is no longer banned on whatever forum he frequents and he'll move along.

Oh no. I'm here to stay. I'm sure I'll need information on how to fix it.
