Plus they are really ugly...
I've never liked, nor wanted a Hummer, military edition or otherwise.
I don't see now, & never saw what the big fascination was with them to tell you the truth.
They were built to get a job done in a military application, just like the Jeep (which btw I have also never liked the design of) & to fake that into a car for the general public, was a big joke IMHO.
Also, while on this subject, GM has almost decided to discontinue the Hummer line as annou8nced in news reports form the AP in recent weeks as well as some of it's other truck divisions, and while that will mean a lot of lost jobs (& potential loss of sponsorships of teams from areas like Oshawa, Canada which is on the chopping block just to name one GM facility on the list of about 5-6 if I recall correctly) I certainly applaud GM's decision to cut the SUV type vehicle from it's lineup, & I definitely won't shed a tear when the Hummer is obsolete.
