(not the PUS*Y H2)

Thanks for the reply...and thank you for the praise on coming to the site to face all of this. I'm glad to have heard back from you already...and, for the record, you remarks were the most fun to address...we'll have to send notes back and forth on the names sometime!! ;-)

I do look forward to reading the upcoming posts...I'm sure they will garnish a smile or two from me over the holiday weekend!

PS: Did I mention I'm REALLY GOOD at getting an H1 stuck! :-) Maybe that should be my new screen name...H1STUCKINMUD!

It's a quiet day at work today, so I'm fast to respond, hehe.

I wheel with a few different Hummers, so I can relate to how badly they can get stuck, regardless of whether it is H1, H2, or H3. Though in general, the heavier the rig, the worse it is, and I've been with friends and their H1s where it has taken hours to get them pulled out, even with a couple winches and recovery straps and secure footing in the front and back for the recovery vehicles.

AMEN to that....I think the worst of it took about 5 hours, 4 people and all we had was that poor S15. We beat on that thing so bad we blew up the water pump minutes after the H1 got pulled out...not to mention the chain that broke during one of the YANKS and came back to bust the drivers side windshield (there's a fun $1000.00 out the, er, WINDOW!). I'll bet those "PUS*Y H2's" were smart enough to have windshields that don't cost as much as some small countries annual defense budget!!! :-)

Fortunately the only casualty was a water pump and a windshield. I recently read that someone, in Colorado, I believe, was killed when a tow hook broke off and the strap and hook went through the windshield during a recovery.

While the H1 windshield does cost more, I like that there is the option of having it heated. (More of an issue here in Canada.)

Funny you should say that about the windshield...the chain actually hit right i front of my face...scared the SH*T out of me...I remember thinking I couldn't beleive that it didn't end up in my nose. That was the moment that the night turned NOT SO FUN....the extraction started at about 2am and went until sun up...

Hey...have to get running...so, probably can't post anymore today. I'll be back in a day or two though to see what fun has transpired! Thanks again for your kind words...and, I'll keep you updated on the wife situation! ;-)

Geeeerrrrrreat, Bull Boy came over.

Nice too see that you nutted up and came on over.

Now GTFO and go to yer own section.

The real issue here michael is that you came to this H2 section and started off bad with the title. I think if you would've had a different title, Your responses would have been different. And while h1, h2 and h3 are all different, there still HUMMERS. So its not the fact of ford vs. chevy. Its have the respect of coming to this H2 section and post accordingly. Im sure if I went to the H1 section and posted something as, Well, sassy. Im sure I would get the heat too. anyway, welcome to our h2 community and I will keep an eye out for you stuck in the mud.
