For future Hummer vehicles like H4 perhaps,
fun stuff:

- Even more clearance than H3, in style of H1 and HMMWV but trying to minimize cost of course. Maybe just keep up the good high-suspension standard that the H3 has set.

- More misc. heavy-duty hardware like full set of tow hooks and roof-mounted items. Ladder?

- Good sized power inverter builtin with
AC outlets. (Thanks for the three 12V outlets
in the H3, I definitely use the one in back.)

- Radical tech: A full-time Internet connection, made possible through the Verizon cell phone that is part of On-Star. This Internet connection could be used by the on-board navigation computer, for info lookup like phone number and address type info but much much more. It could also have a Wi-Fi access point builtin so that all your gadgets are on the Internet whenever they are in or near the Hummer. These days, the speed of Verizon EV-DO Internet access is up over 1 megabit per second where "BroadbandAccess" is available, which is more and more areas.

Then your passenger can read and post to these Elcova forums while cruising down the road (or high up in the mountains if you still have coverage...)

Or, satellite Internet, but this is not as practical as a factory option, and has bad latency:

- Use Google Earth as the factory navigation system on a nice big display (with the Internet access from the previous item).


Radical pie-in-the-sky or what?
