I would think a Hummer could handle something a little more than that... Then again, that was a pretty funky hit that suspension piece took. The wheel was spinning and it whipped over that rock...it basically landed on top of the rock w/ it's steering/suspension parts. Man, the noises that thing made...  I always hated getting stuck or stranded when I used to go offroad (in a Bronco).

Eh, everything will see some type of damage on the trail sometime or another if you do it enough. Anyone who has any experiance with rock crawling (Even though this is a mild trail on the vid  ) knows what comes with the territory. Trail damage happens....
For the record, I had an SUV that was VERY "offroad friendly". How many ZJ's has anyone seen lifted well enough to clear 35's without any sheet metal trimming, and still clear them fully articulated w/ the sway bars disconnected?

What's a ZJ? Am I  or just un-edumacated? Last I checked, some of the best offroad vehicles are SUVs. 70's broncos and even the international scouts (when they actually ran) were AWESOME offroad. Heck, the Suzuki Samuri is damn impressive offroad (if it only had some nuts it'd be even better!). Sigma - LOL!

Yeah, someone shoulda told that guy that Hummer 2's, aren't meant for off-roading, Hummer's are. Hummer 2's are pieces of [censored] that are status symbols for pompus asses.
