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.

If she's that fat, she should be walking........maybe lose some weight on the way to the wedding.....

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.
