    It's pretty crazy to watch that thing push those 10k lbs up some of these hills or keep the grip during a descent on some flat rocks. Obviously not a vehicle of choice for some crazy long offroading through Australian continent, but looks like a lot of fun to take it for an afternoon trip on some outbacks. For that I actually like the fact that this isn't a gas guzzler. I don't know how to put it in words but feels more suitable for a trip out to the nature, I guess?
    What has it come to that when I can choose between this and an SL65, I pick your offroad video to watch first. 😂Always tons of fun and I love that you make these videos as long as they are.

    I work on the assembly line that builds these and it's so cool to see them in action and also to see that people are enjoying them quite a lot! Seeing this makes the long hours feel a bit more worth it.

    love the offroad videos and it makes sense with vehicles like these to see them in their natural habitat and not just on a highway! about walkie talkies, would you say they're a feasible option for roadtrips? we've got 2-3 cars leaving this summer and going through different countries and we figured being able to communicate instantaneously would be super helpful but I don't know how capable a "basic" walkie talkie is when surrounded by a metal box

    Ted I would argue that this Hummer EV is MORE efficient off roading than it is cruising on public roads. Electric cars lose efficiency as you increase speed, ask any Tesla owner, you lose significantly more range going from 65 to 75mph than you would from 55 to 65 mph, for example. It's not a linear scale. When you're crawling below 20mph, it can't be that bad.
