I dont think that there is anyone that can give a solid answear. HUMMER has been testing the duramax, but is keeping very quiet about it. There are lots of rumors that it will be in the H1 in '05, but I doubt it. I doubt it because HUMMER has made alot of changes for to the 6.5 for the '04 model. Why would HUMMER make all of these changes to the 6.5 (those changes are the reason the '04's have come out so late) to replace it with the duramax a year later. Addtionally, the H1 is derived from the Humvee and built on the same assemblely line; I dont think that HUMMER will be putting the duramax in the Humvee for a long time, it doesnt make sense. The Humvee is serviced in a motorpool, I find it highly ill-logical that the military would be servicing two completly diffarent engines and transmissions because none of the parts are interchangable. That means that the military would have to carry twice as many parts to service the same amount of trucks. Just my opinon.
