Hummers arent exactly good off road vehicle. They were designed to be able to
drive in the tracks of other large military vehicles.
I remember the time when we lived in Connecticut. We rented a house. One day
my brother-in-law arrived with his family driving a Hummer H1 and towing his
trailer behind. They are from St.Louis, which is in the Midwest, which would
give you the clue that the trailer was almost as big as a house in the
Northeast where Connecticut is...:)
The landlord lived next door and we shared a driveway. Of course, we had
obtained permission from him to park the trailer for the entire stay of the
in-laws. So they arrive as my landlord leave in his minivan, which is a very
large vehicle for the Northeast... I would never forget the dropped jaw and his
facial expression when he saw thoz two monstrous things plowing through his
driveway...
Biggest problem of the Hummers is their reliability tho...and yes, thats
another small penis car...:)
