Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.

The one guy I knew who owned a Hummer2 was about 6 foot 9 inches tall and weighed about 400 pounds.
When he got out of that thing it looked like a regular sized guy getting out of Camry.
The H2 was everything the original was not. The original was based on the military vehicle, that idea was based on "wouldn't it be cool if our transport killed us less frequently than the enemy". Older Jeeps rolled over a lot .
So you got a wider wheelbase, and other things like higher driveline. That's why you had that huge transmission hump between driver and shotgun.
The H2 is just a GMC truck with a body kit. The original Meal Team Six vehicle.
Perfect
