H3 Surrounded by Mall Crawlers - Ohio

[jwilson]

Any off-roaders on here from Ohio ? I seem to be surrounded by Mall Crawlers and BLINGED out 2's and 3's :gaah:


If so let me know where you are off roading ?

Thanks

Unfortunately most Hummer, Jeep, FJ, Rover, etc owners never leave the pavement no matter where you are. We are in the minority. That said there are Hummer owners that wheel in your area.

Find a local 4x4 group.... 3Humners is right. The percentage of people that wheel their trucks is rather small. the percentage of those people that drive hummers is even smaller.

Lots of Hummers in Ridgecrest. None wheel but me. Craig and Chris demonstrated to the rather large crowd of Jeepers I brought to our last LCC run that yes we can wheel. It's all about the love of wheeling, not what you drive. The local 4x4 club will give you static, but it's all good

Interesting that I have seen so many hummers these last 2 months everywhere I go. It used to be rare to see them out here. I wonder if the lower prices have something to do with it. I live in a small town and there are probably 8-10 h3s in town. I pulled up to the gym and there were 2 already there. Still, no one sees to go out wheeling in theirs.

rsc and I went wheeling today at a place in Missouri. They were a little surprised to see a couple H3s but we had a great time. They even said "we don't see many of those"... I joined a local 4x4 club here in the st. louis area and they were pretty receptive to the hummer. I wouldn't go try and get in with a jeep club by any means. Those guys seem pretty territorial... But any decent groups should accept you for what you are, an off road enthusiast... Hopefully...

I went to Crystal Beach yesterday and I was surrounded by close to 1,000 Mall Crawling look a like store bought JK/JKU's. It was Go Topless Weekend, and out of the 1,000 Jeeps I saw the only one that I know gets truly wheeled was my friends 03 TJ that I met up with. The rest of those Jeep's were just $$$$$ and will never see more than some sand or dirt off the side of the road.

I got harassed by nearly every JK/JKU owner that parked next to us, but I must have passed 50 on my way home that couldn't go over 60MPH, and they were all covered in sand, bugs, and sweat. I meanwhile was freezing, jamming out, and enjoying my day with my 2 year old in the backseat lol. I went into all the deep sand 99% of the Jeep's were avoiding and I seriously tried to bog my Alpha down, but nope it didn't happen.

I was proud to be the only H3 on the beach, and it felt good to me to be driving something a little more special than a cookie cutter rig (what my friend calls all the JK/JKU look a likes).
