Wifes first time
So I took the wife to Gulch's for her first off road driving lesson. She was having a blast learning what the H3 can do and the new Nitto Tera Grapplers were performing great and then came her 2nd hill climb.... This was not a big hill but the driveshaft twisted like a plastic straw!
The folks at Gulch's were great, Bob and Charlie got us back safe and made it so that we could make it home (Thanks guys!)
Columbiana Hummer took care of us with no question.
Here are some pictures.

Re: Wifes first time
I'm sure your local Hummer Dealer would be interested in that shaft
Defect part or Lead foot

Re: Wifes first time
The title and shaft pic had me laughing my A$$ off!
Great pics and thanks for posting.
I envy you...I wish I could say that the wife twisted my shaft on her first time out...I'd get a lot of mileage out of that statement!

Re: Wifes first time
Yeah, I thought that title would get some attention!
The hill was not that much of a challenge for the H3, take a look at the attached picture, we were in 4 low and attempting to crawl over the rocks on the left side of the picture.

Re: Wifes first time
Hey man you need to take it easy on a woman when its her first time. You can't just start off with the rough stuff. No wonder she broke your shaft.

Re: Wifes first time
that shaft looks bad, hard to believe if I wouldn't see the picture... too much torque and sudden resistance at the same time?
