    You have to hire them from a specialist supplier as the main car hire companies do not have them on the fleet. Try typing "hummer hire orlando" or something similar in Google to see who might be able to help.

    I'd love to have a go at one too as they look fabulous [msnsmile2]

    LOL - we saw this one near Crescent Lakes when we were over a few days ago. It certainly caught our eye

    My son has a thing about the Hummer car, he would love one for himself when he is old enough to drive. Think they might be a bit expensive on the insurance for him to start with though, so will have to make do with something a bit more practicle.[msnsmile2]

    I took that one at Celebration, as I'm sure most of you recognise just before leaving for the airport[msnsad]. Must admit I'd love one , my wife had to prise me out of that one at Testrak in epcot (not 'cos I'm a bloater)

    We also saw that one at Celebration. After we left Celebration we went to turn left onto the 192 when suddenly it went dark. The Hummer had pulled up in the next lane also going to turn left.

    My son, as well! But as they run $120,000 for the H1s,which is what he wants, its unlikely he will ever get one.[msnwink]

    Their offroad performance is quite amazing too. This was taken at the top of one of the killer trails around Moab. The Hummer just breezed around with, I think, 7 of us in it and the driver/guide (who's name I've forgotton) chatting away without having to worry too much about the terrain

    The 2nd photo gives a much better impression of the terrain and shows what happens even to heavily modified off-roaders when they get it even slightly wrong.

    After we towed this chap off this ledge we joked with our guide that at least he'd had the bottle to try the hardest bit of trail that we'd bypassed. Our driver then promptly drove the hummer straight up here, turned around and came down, then stopped and reversed back up it, still with the 7 of us in there. Quite an awesome vehicle all things considered.
