Yes...Your H3 Can Ford 2 Feet Of Water..
Here in south New Joisey we got pelted with some nasty rain. The streets were flooded and water was a gush-en everywhere. On my way to work I came upon a small traffic jam. Seems people were turning around and coming back up the street due to some high water at the botom of the intersection.
When I got down to the high water area I could tell by the curb height that the water wasn't over the HUMMER H3 linit of 2 feet. I know this street since I travel it almost everyday.
As the VW bug in front of me "U" turned I went straight. I just rolled into the water ...kept it at about 5 mph and motored on thru. Very cool. 
As I looked back I could see that some were thinking of trying it but aborted and "U" turned away. I thought I saw one guy mumble something like .."HUMMER...Like Nothing Else..!!"

Re: Yes...Your H3 Can Ford 2 Feet Of Water..
hahaha nice!!! Had a similar thing the other day i was going into a gas station after a lot of rain, and everyone was going around to teh other entrence becuase it was flooded, i also knew from always filling up there it wasnt 2 feet so i just went right on through without thinking twice, and as i was filing up i had 2 people come up to me and say "i have to get one of those, does it really not ruin the car at all?"

Re: Yes...Your H3 Can Ford 2 Feet Of Water..
didi that 3 make it Huner? I was comming home months ago after a big downpour. In the southwest roads act as rivers for flood control so with a littel over a foot moving down the street i blast right through it on the way home. I see light behind me, ass is trying to not only keep up but splash some more. turn into my street to see another H3 behind me. Three in my hood.
Great story nam

Re: Yes...Your H3 Can Ford 2 Feet Of Water..
Actually he made it several times. Here is one I think it did float probably from the Sunami he created hitting the water!

Re: Yes...Your H3 Can Ford 2 Feet Of Water..
Hope he had some fresh silicone on the door seals to keep the liquid out.
That's a nasty clean up job.

Great pics!!
Clean up would suck on that one. Or just keep it dirty!
