Question Toyota's answer to the HUMMER???

Looky what I found!
Sorry quality is so poor.

Could this be Toyota's answer to the H2?

That thing is old. I saw it at the North American International Auto Show about two and half years ago. It obviously will not perform like the Hummer, its just a looker.

I dont think anyone has an answer to the Hummer. Hummer will always be hummer and nobody can come close...especially not toyota...

shit....if toyota were to produce a rival to the hummer i am sure performance would not be an issue. toyota has been making 4wd trucks forever and the past has shown those guys know how to build a truck. the range rover, the land cruiser. even the little 4wd 4 banger trucks are bad as shit with a little lift and some tires. toyota makes a great product and i don't think they would have a problem building a truck to out perform a GM truck.

lol, try again. It will out perform anything out, that is if u want to take it off road. Go take a test drive at dew hummer, they will take u off road and show u what it can do...truck is built for off road even though 90% of owners never take it off road..

the "hummer" is bad ass and built like a tank for off road use. the "h-2" that you speak of is nothing more than a overpriced tahoe with a different, heavier body. only bought as a social symbol or to appeal to a certin class of people. if you want to go off road buy a Wrangler.

I am speaking of the H2...it can defanitly go off road. Can go under 26 inches of water and still be coverd by factory warranty...also, its meant to go off road and yes the chassis is somwhat shared with the tahoe...I feel people always hate cars they will never own...

why would i never own one? what makes you special?

i hate h-2's because they are over rated and sold to be some thing they are not. i love the original hummer those are where it's at the h-2 is just a glorified tahoe. and tahoes aren't all that great either IMO. if you wanna go buy one of these worthless peices of driveway glitter and awe your neigbors feel free personally i would rather have a useful truck a jeep for off roading and a track car for the same money.
