RE: Hummer vs. Powerstroke Tug of War
Tug of wars are fun for goofing off but really show nothing about power. It's all about traction from the tires you have on it. Granny low is just good for off-roading. Real power is getting a 10,000 pound trailer moving fast and keeping it going up big hills at 70mph. Do thatAND get 15mpg. That's the Powerstroke difference.

j/k Big rigs like that are great vehicles too, and parts failure can happen to anyone.

cool movie, i loved it
to give big diesel pickups their props, they can drag a 15,000 lb trailer faster than A) the top end of an H1 or B) to a higher speed than an H2 can maintain w/o downshifting all the time.
But, this is about hummers. Weight, traction, gearing, go foward. We rule.
