*The [[warthog]] is the futuristic " | *The [[warthog]] is the futuristic "Hummer": all of its variants are equipped with a seemingly full-time 4x4 transmission and four-wheel steering to allow for tighter turning; however, higher speeds will result in the under steer that all All Wheel Drive (AWD) cars suffer, unless you drive while using the E-brake. The Warthog can carry 3 people - 1 driver, 1 gunner, and 1 passenger (with the exception of the [[M12 Warthog APC|Warthog APC]] and the [[Transport Warthog | M831 TT]]). Interestingly, the Warthog LRV is water-resistant; it can easily drive underwater (although a bit slower). The Warthog is extremely quick and maneuverable, but is prone to rollovers during hard cornering. | ||
*There are a few differences between the Warthogs of [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] and [[Halo 2]]. While the Warthog in [[Halo: CE]] was notoriously hard to control and was indestructible, the revamped Warthog of [[Halo 2]] was a dream come true. The handling was greatly improved, and allies as well as enemies can now drive, though how well they drive usually depends on the difficulty level. There was also the addition of the horn, which can be useful for getting the attention of teammates. Additionally, the Warthog now had a handbrake(Power Slide), which allows the driver to lock up the rear wheels and slide the back end out, making it easier to ram enemies that move out of the way. The 'Hog's strongest point is on the front. The front end can take quite a beating from small-medium arms fire before blowing up, and the glass protects the occupants from weapons fire (except for rockets and other explosive ordnance). | *There are a few differences between the Warthogs of [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] and [[Halo 2]].
