anybody seen the new hummers?

[pyro4fun]

I would definitely buy a HX if thy build one.
I haven't liked any designs that Hummer has had except the military version.

You may not like them but if they're being bought up then at least somebody likes them.

Also for the motor. The H3 comes optional now with either a 3.5L or 3.7L I-5, or a 5.3L small block V8. They added it by popular demand.

A little off topic, but I saw a new Challenger tonight. They look nice....little shorter than I imagined.

The best looking car in production today... I saw a black one on a car hauler a couple weeks ago, with the carbon fiber stripes it looked fricken sweet.

If I could outrun it on foot and it handled like a hippo on a rollerskate, it is a nice enough looking car I would make how I wanted it.

You may not like them but if they're being bought up then at least somebody likes them.

Actually I have heard they have been having problems with that... people wanting to buy them.

I never said that everyone shares my opinion, I was just stating the way I feel about them...

So let me see. Off-road a $5k Ford or a $25-30k GM product. Do I need to say more. And I know someone is going to put 20-22" rims for the bling bling factor.

No thanks. I like the Ranger because its a truck and doesn't imatate any one else. My Ranger already bares the marks of mother nature wraith. Would hate to have it done to a more expensive vehicle.

its GM i wouldnt buy it.

 

[Ranger Dave (B25)]

I like them.

If you can AFFORD it, then filling it up with gas won't be a problem for you.

I can well afford it. I'm just not that stupid with my money. Which is why I can well afford it.

Yes you do, Where the **** do you find a NEW "5k" Ford?

I wanna know too! Haha.

Last time I checked.. decent 2008 Rangers were in the 20k zone as well.

 

[pillen140]

or a $30000 hummer?

 

[rusty ol ranger]

Give me 29K in cash and my old '78 Chevy 3/4 ton before I ditched it and well.. I'll scrap the truck again and use the money to pay for college!

Hummers going down

You'll crap them when it comes time to fill the tank every couple days.

Don't understand why the hell these hogs are still being built.

actully the H1 and the H2 have been discontinued and the H3 alpha is the only one being build and they've held off the prodution date for the H3T until they can figure out what there going to do with the HUMMER francise. GM whats to either sell it to another company, get rid off it all to gether, or sell it as its own company. i thank GM should close it doors all together and get it over with and Hummer should go back to being build by a real off-road company... AM General like it use to.

Because douchebags continue to put 22"s on em to match the rest of the chrome on that thing. Big and wants to look like a badass. Rich wannabes that never use the 4WD ever on concrete want it to impress their sorority girlfriends. I appears masculine, although it isn't as practical for outdoors.

IT IS A PITIFUL SHADOW OF THE ORIGINAL H1, an American symbol of brute force over the world to transport tropps over desert and through swamps.

It looks like a truck!

The new Hummers are interesting. Petersen's did a write-up on the prototypes a while back. They do look like a truck for more hauling and cargo space (even rich guys like to carry toys). Plus, and I don't remember the details, but apparently the drive train got a few upgrades. Something about new locker or better locker, something along those lines. Props to them, they're slowly but surely building a capable 4x4 off the lot. Now if only it was affordable...

So upgraded Tahoe, it is? Will tierods continue to snap like pencils?
