Wow...what a shame. They completely Snoop-Dog-Rap-Videoed, and ruined one of the best off road vehicles on the market today. That's a trailer queen. Try and take a corner doing more than 50mph in that and skiiiiiiiiiiiiiid....into the guardrail you go.

Hummer H2? One of the best off-road vehicles?

As sold stock, yes. Beaten by the H1 of course and one of the Range Rovers. Yes, I know about the Rubicon. And the fact you can carry all of one passenger and a plastic shopping bag full of potato chips in it before it's full to bursting with cargo.

well for one this I believe is a repost

Also deemed fake

also the H2 is nothing more than a Yukon, so have fun off-roading in your expensive yukon. Not to forget the inside of an H2 is amazingly small. So your paying a crap load of money for a few badges that say "hummer" and "h2".

Its too bad that they've ruined it. With those wheels, they won't be able to go over a pothole without worrying about breaking one, so curb jumping is out of the question (let alone any other serious off roading they might need to do). Combine that with the surely horrendous gas mileage (would need a huge tank to be able to stay on a chase long at all) and you've got a pointless vehicle. They would've been much better off with a sports car that would handily beat that in speed. They aren't going to be catching any Koenigseggs in it with a 155mph top speed. With how much they probably spent on that, they could've gotten 2 or 3 Z06 Vettes, which would be better at taking down a speeder than a single Hummer.

It is menacing though.

Thats just ridiculous and it makes me a little angry. Why the hell do they need a Hummer H2 with 24inch rims and 700 HP? A Ford Explorer could do the same thing. Nice to see good use being made of tax dollars.

awesome vehicle. Reminds my of the off-road monster vehicles that the Police in GTA:San Andreas used in the rural areas of the game. Those were sweet to drive!

Yeah, In my little town just south of Ft. Worth, TX they have a couple of plain explorers and a couple of highway interceptors (a Camaro SS from a couple of years ago, and a new vette they just got). Makes much more sense to me, they track em down with the sports car then haul them to jail in the explorer:)

My neighbors firestation inherited an H1 Hummer that they totally rebuilt during their down time themselves. They got Line-x (the spray on liner company) to cover the entire thing, inside and out, in a red and white scheme. It's supposedly pretty tight. He said I could come up with my son one weekend for a spin. I'll get some pics then.
