Post by redrocket »

You do realise there is actually bugger all room inside them. The massive transmission tunnel down the middle takes up a lot of room. Could get pretty cramped for her if she has a big dress

no he was making a point

he commented if the bride in question was of a larger body mass than usual she may find the interior of a hummer cramped and umcomfotable

Mass doesn't always equate to a larger volume.

So a fat bride doesn't necessarily take up any more room than a bride with a larger mass.

For a fat bride I would reccommend an F250. That way if she doesnt fit in the cab you always have the option of the tray.

to go back on subject she is far from a fat bride. what tonka "assumed" was that she may be fat, much more delicate words should have been chosen. how much room differance is there between a h1 and h2?

H1 is a 4 seater only (Can get weird seat that can go on console) with a huge centre console that houses the drivetrain.

H2 is 4x4 wagon based and has the normal seating for 5 like a Patrol or Cruiser Etc

Has anyone ever seen a H2 in Australia?

I know someone on ExplorOz talked about having one imported and mentioned someone who did it so there must be at least one somewhere.

The only one I have seen, was still waiting to be converted to RHD. But did look nice, but I would hate to have to do any work on the motor. As the engine bay was very crowded. Was hard to make out that there was a V8 TD under there. Also had soom seriously bling wheels on it.

But back on topic, the interior would be as roomy as a GU or 100LC.

For a $85 000US car I would atleast like to have elec window switches designed for not just stolen from a GXL80.

If they tidied up the interior abit and up'd the power abit it would be nice.

that will have more room because it is a Patrol with a Hummer like body on it. very different to the actual Hummer which has the transmission tunnel in the cab

those window switches are used a fair bit throughout the toyota lines

as for the power'

could definantly do with a v8 diese, but i doubt toyota would design an engine just for a vehicle with such small sales.

There is a restuarant thingo down at cleveland called Tim's surf and turf, i'm pretty sure thats the name, anyway i've seen his hummer parked out front of his shop a few times, maybe worth a phone call.
