Re: HX to become H4
AM General is going to release the Hummer H1 again without all the GM upgrades. It will be called the Humvee and still be the military one with creature comforts. I think 08 as a 09 but it's hard to tell. AMG was making money on H1 prosuction before the upgrades. The upgrades caused cost of production to skyrocket andmade it no longer profitable to produce them. if you find the press release from Mr. Armor when he said they would no longer build them you can find the double speak.
I do not work for GM and some of this is a educated guess.

Re: HX to become H4
Hummer Guy works for a big dealer and forgot what he saw in the Dealer confrence is concidered hush hush for the public. I got to see the H1 Alpha a year before release and the H3 as a mock up with no guts over 2 years before release. I also got to see the H3 Mule at the track in South Bend as a frame with no body. I had the pic but did not dare post it.
It is fun working in the Car Biz, someday I may go back.

That's what I'd heard. I'm seriously considering waiting on the 6.2 H2 to see how the new H1 comes out. |

Re: HX to become H4
DRTY, what I heard form a AMG tech aobut a year ago was that the new Humvee would be same as military line like before. Might be worth the wait.

Re: HX to become H4
I was hoping the H3T would have a mid-gate similiar to the H2 SUT. Does anybody know if that feature would be incorporated or will it be a traditional pickup truck?

More like a traditional pickup than the SUT.

Maybe, maybe not. The H4 is going to be very similar.  |
