Hummer says 40% which is just shy of 23 degrees. But that is with the truck at full GVW. You'll want your seatbelt on at 35 degrees. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Why is it that the wussy little 5-10 degree bump at Black Hole feels like 48 degrees? My hands just got sweaty. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>The view of where you would go should that bump suddenly rise up and tip you over.

You have to drive an H2 in the mud completely different than you do a Rubi or something smaller.

I took it in deep mud once but went through the same area several times to try and learn how to get through it best. It seemed to be best to stay steady on the throttle and kind of do a controlled slide on through. It was just below my door handles in depth. An H1 got stuck when he tried to baby it through the deep part. I know he could have made it but, he chickened out and we just towed him back and he went around it. Also it seemed like the All Terrans got clogged pretty quickly but keeping them spinning seemed to clean them out somewhat. I look forward to comparing these vehicles. I know one thing, I'll have a much more comfortable ride there and back!

I just look straight ahead in that spot and pretend it is flat with no 500ft drop 5ft away.

Exactly!!! And that bump wouldn't even be noticeable somewhere else.

You drove through a mud hole that was up to your door handles in depth? I'm gonna call bull**** on that one, no way in hell. Maybe you meant water which would be possible but not mud.

Seriously though, does anyone have a pic from the Moab threads demonstrating said bump or, more importantly, the dropoff hazard?
