Personally, I think they ruined the Hummer name with the H2 and H3. The H1 represented something that no one else did. Just having something named a Hummer made you one of the elite. But now, anyone can get in on the Hummer name.

But thats not to say Hummer made a bad business decision. I think it's great they;re doing great. They have easily doubled, if not trippled the amount of trucks they sell.

I still want the Hummer SUT.

The fact this SUV shares a name with a military transport, regardless of the fact thats about all it has in common with it, will make it sell like hotcakes.

I can't recall hearing them referred to as "hummers" while in the military. It was either "Hum-vee", or by their model designation (high-back or M998, 2-stretcher ambulance or M1035, etc).

Give me a nasty, uncomfortable, HMMWV any day over one of those civillian abortions.

A friend has an H1 he hit a tree around 15mph and messed it up pretty badly aside from alot of body damage most of the front suspention was shot. Although it did manage to back itself away from the tree and out of the ditch with one tire almost all the way on it's side.

Its gone down hill since the H1.

Why do they have to screw it up even more...

Well they had to do something. Hummer sales have dropped to almost nothing. They hype is over. The H2 was nothing but a heavier body on a Tahoe frame or was it a Yukon. Either way. The just dropped a Hummer looking body on a frame of a regular SUV.

I agree they did ruin the Hummer name by creating the H2.

The H3 is even worse. They trying to compete in the smaller SUV marker like and Explorer and Jeep?

It's a Jeep on steroids that's it.
