i think someones trying to stir the pot
i honestly dont care what you wheel. if you wanna wheel im good to go.
however i personally have never seen a hummer on the trails and depending on the trail they could do very well or very poorly just like any other vehicle. id say the only real down fall of a hummer is its size (the H3 isnt to bad though) and that it has IFS. also the H2s with the inline 5 seem to lack some power too because of the size but that can be over come by the gearing
alot of the trails here are very narrow and i have to take my mirrors off (assuming i didnt take the entire door off) and have received many dents dings and scrapes because of it. i dont think a hummer or even a full sized jeep would do to well.
the same goes with the FJs. i have nothing against them and on the right trails they will do very well. ive wheeled with the local land rover club here in town and most of the guys consider the ranch roads the trails but there are a few that actually hit the trails and do very well.
i know that everyone thinks the jeep community hates hummers but they really dont. atleast not any of the real jeepers/wheelers. its just some good ol ribbin.
