Video: Snorkelling Hummer

For when the land runs out...

---

This video seemed worth sharing, what with all the rain we've been having.

Impressive stuff, as I'm sure you'll all agree, but underwater navigation seems a bit of an issue when the driver stuffs it into the riverbank... and does the aircon have a leech filter?

I want to break the forum too!

Ridiculous.

By the way Renault have pulled out of F1 for anyone interested in motorsport/perfomance motoring.

Another manufacturer gone. Good luck to Lotus for next year!

I think it's amusing, although it's an extreme way to dip your headlights.

Perhaps my response wasn't quite laden enough with the sentiment (guffawing in disbelief) that I was trying to express...

[Vipers]

My post vaporised, my comment was it may have a market for those muppets who follow their sat navs to the ends of the earth, even in gullys or RIVERS get in their way.

[tinman0]

so is Pistonheads copying Jalopnik articles or vice versa?
