Possible Hummer H9T Mule For Sale On Ebay

Has there ever been much doubt the Hummer brand would continually march up the numerical ladder while downsizing its products? We started with the H1, moved on to the H2, and then the H3 and Hummer H3T. It seems inevitable there will be an H4, H5, H6 and...you get the picture. But we may have caught proof of the General's trickery early on with what we're speculating must be the Hummer H9T, based on relative size reduction between previous models. The cleverly designed mini-Hummer obviously takes advantage of the design heritage of the brand, but bucks at least two Hummer brand trends by making room for passengers and visibility a priority.

But the design does get an upgrade as we see an intelligent choice by GM to move away from the seven bar grille and that silly never-ending argument with Chrysler's Jeep division. Finally, this model purports to be the greenest Hummer yet, with an all-electric powertrain — that should get the envirocrats off of GM's back for a while, or at least reduce the number of H2 barbecues.

The sad thing is it has the same size truck bed as the H2 truck.

The answer to the question, "What should I get if I like the looks of the Hummer line, but happen to be well endowed?"

I can see this and the H2T singing "Just the two of us," in a underground hollowed-out volcano lair.

I thought the H9 was based on the Cavalier? This is probably the H10 prototype.

I followed the link and this is not a one off, there is a company somewhat mass-producing these things: [e-ride.com] . If it was just a one off I would expect the front end to be more accurate, but since their mass producing it they have to play it a bit more safe, I'm sure GM is shitting themselves over this.

Since the H1 is dead and the H2 is being killed off this might be the future of the Hummer line (anyone want to photoshop an Aveo?). How many billions did GM pay for the right to put the nickname for HUMVEEs on pimped out Tahoes and Colorados?

at least this hummer doesn't have the terribly thick pillars surrounding the windows...i could easily stomach the current designs if there was a great deal more glass, or at least what appears to be, than what was offered

@no_slushbox: GM doesn't have to pay anything to put the name "Hummer" on anything. They own the name. Just like they don't have to pay to label something "Chevrolet".

"Hummer" didn't exist as a brand until GM registered it.

I'm confused...can I still fit my outlandish 24" dubs on it?

@no_slushbox: Hummer was a cash-cow from the get-go. But party like that only lasts so long, so I hope GM put their Hummer bucks in the bank. Or at least in Chevy Volt R&D.

@smalleyxb122: I didn't say they are paying anything now, they bought all rights to the Hummer name from AM General in 1999. I'm sure they paid a lot for it back then. AM General must be laughing pretty hard about what they unloaded on GM. [www.amgeneral.com]
href="#c4897578">brandegee: Between paying a lot for the brand and paying AM General to contract manufacture the H1 and H2 I wonder if they broke even.

Tonight on Hollywood Insider: Ed Begley, Jr. has ordered a Hummer? Details at 11.

@smalleyxb122: Actually, I believe they bought the rights to the name "Hummer" when they bought AM General. The H1 was already available as a civilian model at the time. Since AM General was the only bit of AMC that Chrysler didn't buy, they already had the rights to the 7 bar grille (which GM bought with the Hummer brand when it bought AM General). A sordid tale, to be sure, but Chrysler will never get Hummer to give up that design through the courts because it's verifiably bought and paid for.

@Mike the Dog: Funny what you can learn when you read. I thought GM had bought AM General, oops....

Hmm, needs more bed out back.

I can't peruse EBay from the job so can't see the details on this beast but the fact is, I have a use for something just about like that.

It needs more ground clearance and gun racks for 5-8 rifles or shotguns and room for a couple large range/ammo bags. Then it could be a very useful "day trip to the desert for jack rabbit shooting" rig.

The cart you'd want if you're playing a really tough golf course.

The tray on this looks about as useful as the one on the Mighty Boy! (I'm sorry, but a Suzuki Mighty Boy! just requires exclamation marks).
