I wish these were here in the UK! I think it looks great, not too much of a hummer replica and looks like would go anywhere.....FAST :D (maybe without the spoiler though :p)

They look cool, but are those spoilers really necessary? They look silly on a vehicle such as that.

I think the short wheel base looks really good. Of course, minus the spoiler. Who's making these?
Peace.

They give you more downward force when crawling over the rocks allowing you to go up much steeper climbs!:bwgy::naughty::laughing:

Spoiler looks good. We have one too but not of that caliber remember.

That spoiler looks like a snow plow! Like the truck is meant to be turned upside down and clear roadways in a blizzard.

...might be an option for those of us who were eagerly awaiting this:

And yeah, that spoiler's got to go.

VT-MAVERICK--- You hit the nail on the head!!! I had already ear-marked a garage stall in my detached shop specifically for the Hummer HX/H4, and the damn recession killed it from becoming a reality.:_crying:

As a secondary substitute; I do like the Rhino, but it probably doesn't meet US Spec and would cost a fortune to have it converted to US Spec. Pity.:(

That spoiler looks like it's right off a ricer's Civic :_thinking....this thing isn't meant to go fast, how strange they thought it fit with the rest of the design......it's like apples and oranges. :goof: Off it goes!

The military version which I assume is stock there is no spoiler.

The other 2 have spoilers but they are different types. I am guessing the spoiler is an owne added option and not a factory option.

Youse guys have got spoilers on the brain.

That aint no spoiler - it's the back half of the factory roof rack.:bwgy::smilewink

Errr - don't ask were the front half goes.:confused::confused:



Sue, if I didn't have a VX I would like one - but having a VX has sorta spoiled me.

The only other vehicle I lust over at the moment, is a Carver.

Thats cool...I like the rake on the windshield...

I wanted to do this years ago, by just shortening the REAL H1....

I hate the solid axles, and for that reason it is not much better than the "BUMMER" kit that was being made here in the US a while back....

Still, if I ever get around to hacking up an H1, I might just order their windsheild and top...:yeso:

Wow, not that thing is way cool. Something apparently happened to my brain this week I think cuz I was lookin' at Captain Phil Harris' Titan (from the show "Deadliest Catch") custom bike on ebay, and that lead me to start lookin' at other Titans....:rollo:...and we saw a special edition called "Von Zipper" (apparently named after a character in the Beach Blanket Bingo movie from the 50s or 60s) and I liked it! 1500cc, kinda retro look...Dave wanted to take my temperature since I've always been afraid of cycles....:_wtf:
Well, that delusion came and went....I think I'm back to normal.

But this Carver is much more my style....3 wheels and enclosed! James this is what you and Claire need! It's in the UK! Is it expected to come to OZ PK?

I'll bet the fear of lawsuits and plaintiff attorneys would cause the company to not even try to bring it to the U.S.....pity...
