What they sold at GM dealerships is a far cry from being a HUMMER. All it is is a BOX on wheels.

The hummer died years ago. It was a bad design from the start. The first military use was in Grenada, when it was pulled from service and the old m151 jeeps where put back into service. Hmvee's where too wide to get through narrow streets, and G.I's where put in peril because their hummers became wedged between buildings. The auto transmissions have leaky seals, lots of water and sand damage, and the driver was too far from the the navagator in the passenger seat and couldn't hear eachother talk under normal driving conditions. The Marines complained from day 1 and use G-wagons, and Land Rover Defenders but can't tell press about it because of the AM general contract. A new M-151a3 variant is being developed for the army. As far as civilian hummers go, they are just shitty trucks.

No, it was stillborn, although you still see the odd one on the streets. Driven by the braindead.

Most Hummer drivers are middle aged, short, bald wieners with a gut.

Come to think of it most 8 cylinder SUV drivers are like that.

I for one really liked my H1 when I had it. For me it was totally reliable, and I have never felt so safe in a vehicle. Not to mention, it looked down right cool.

Perhaps you know more than I, however, from everything I've read and been told an armored, hybrid, and sightly larger replacement for the Humvee is in the works not a move backwards to the "Jeep" with all the problems they had.

Thus proving that cool is also only in the eye of the beholder. And you'd have been way safer on the bus, but probably wouldn't have felt so … you know.

In 2006 hummer came out with an awesome H1 called "Alpha" ... I drove it once.. awesome vehicle.. I would never buy one ... but very nice.

As for H2's... same drive train and frame as a yukon...different body... I have never been a fan.

I wouldn't own a Hummer unless someone paid me A LOT to drive one. My dream car is a Lotus Elise.
