    Damn nice Coupe though.
    The Hummer's purchased by the general public are NOTHING like the ones used by the military. The smaller ones share running gear with the Yukon/Tahoe with the boxy body added to look like the military version....

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    I beg to differ with U Roger, this 1 and I had 1 that was military powered. They are the H-1's not the smaller H2's

    Sorry, but the civilian H1's only share a few generic components with the military version - brakes, axles, frame and major body panels (hood, tailgate and quarter panels) are shared between the HMMWV and Hummer H1. Other components, including the power train, are not the same. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hummer_H1 The one pictured is clearly badged an H2.
