Knew one guy who took a Hummer deer hunting just to show off and he came back cussing up a storm about how the truck was too wide and how much walking he had to do.

I have a friend who did the exact same thing. He bought a Hummer and then decided to take it deer hunting. Big mistake. That vehicle is just not made for narrow mountain trails. It got stuck up there and needed tons of guys to help him get it turned around and out.

I almost bought a hummer years ago for my wife. But we found the ride too stiff and it just didn't seem all that great a vehicle. I'd never even think of using one for hunting.

If you hunt high, you need something powerful, with good ground clearance, not too wide and not too stylish. (grin)

Dear Gold: Actually we have 3 Jeeps. Mine is a 2001 TJ and the one we now use exclusively for offroading. My wifes is a 1996 Grand Cherokee, we have used it offroad often in the past but now "protecting" it. Last one is my sons 1989 Cherokee. We bought them all new, the cherokee was my wifes originally. Just finished putting a 3" lift on the Cherokee and will refit it with 31" tires. Its a great vehicle for a college student IMHO. Lots of room for all his STUFF. JDN
