I forget which gen we were in, but once I was a passenger with a driver who worked sales a Hummer dealership. We were driving back to a summer camp, and as we're passing the top of what in the winter is the tobogganing hill, he goes "guys hold on, check this out." He goes offroad down a significant incline, mowing down saplings and dodging trees, rocks, etc, with all of us kids just trying to hold on in the back because the seats lack bolstering. We get to the bottom and he's just like "cool right?" It was kind of cool, and it's also what made it the perfect karenmobile.
