how da hell did I get called a dik in this thread?!?!?! Man...I got to re-read all the threads now to see where else I was called out[:D][:D][:D]
As far as technical advise goes......there is NO ONE over there that impresses me. I will put my wrenching experiance against any of them.....the main difference between here and there is quite simple......We have equal technical knowledge but they feel the need to make you know that they have it.....makes some people feel good thumping their chest on an internet forum. I cannot remember one technical question not getting answered here....don't know what more we can do. They do have more offoraders that feel ugly means off road dominant [:'(][:'(] Sorry but I'm not putting $50 steel wheels on a $40,000 hummer.....I can afford to replace my chrome wheels when they get f'ed up.
as my experience offroading my H2 grows, my opinion of the technical knowledge on that other site is getting lower as well. So much of the comments there stem essentially from one guy and the rest of "the clique", and some of the observations just don't add up when stacked next to my real world experience with the truck. Also, the comments and suggestions about 'wheeling the H2 found on other sites seems unusually focused on rock crawling, with little about the many, many other types of (often much more fun) wheeling to be had.
I wish i had more mechanical knowledge, and more knowledge of the appropriate terminology, so that i could put together a nice offroading FAQ about the H2. It would have been nice - when i started playing with the thing in the dirt - to find a nice "guide" to offroading the H2, something explaining the pros and cons of the truck, how to get the most out of it in different situations, and how to avoid abusing it and all of that. I think i've collected enough experience to do that, but hell if i know what all the proper terms are to make it sound all perfeshunal and what not.
