I imagine the alpha would be even quicker and should shut up the magazine critics that said the H3 lacked power. Now what are they going to complain about.




Thy will still bitch about because it's a Hummer it has to be destroying the planet and the driver must be an environment hating *******, trust me they will blame something on Hummers and their owners.
