Starts at 39k, but they are limited to like 7 thousand models.... so good luck finding it NOT marked up. On Ebay/Auto-trader the average markup is around 45k.

Far from useless. Unless you plan on towing the Washington monument.

They will be just like the hummer, most will never see any dirt under the tires and wiped clean everyday with the addition of 25" spinners with low-pro tires.

If you think this is even in the same class as the hummer than you don't know much about off roading.


That being said, its entirely possible that a good % of these trucks will be bought and never pushed to their potential... but hey, I see 60 year old men in Z06's all the time.

X2, that's what I'm talking about. These will be car show queens and barely ever go off road. The potential of the truck will me be met by less than 5% of the people who own them.

Depends on the hummer your talking about. the H1 great, the h2 for rappers and guys with small well, you know, h3 a toy to go to the store in. If you want a real off road unit then you get a jeep.

Hummer does not make a car that can directly compete with the SVT Raptor. The hummer, with its special off-road package and everything, finished second to LAST in Motor trends off roading capability test... loosing to the Nissan Xterra, Jeep Wrangler, and Toyota FJ.

The SVT would have cleaned up in that class.
