I think (just assuming) thus may had been a special ops vehicle and may not have been put into the common Army circulation. The typical Humve would/could over heat but that was because of all the added armor, ammo, fuel, water, and equipment added in combat.

Over all I think it would be fun and you would like the cushier civilian model. If you don't like it, there is always someone looking to buy one.

So my buddy who is gonna loan me his for a bit was messaging with me... and evem as a vehicle he loves... he had what I think is more negatives than positives...

Ugh...

"Hey bro... long time hope all is well... I had to do some serious cooking mods to get my h1 tow worthy... and it it struggles to go up serious inclines. But none the less it does the job for me. 45-55 mph it's screaming on the highway. These were not made for highway use. Mine can safely traverse at 60-70 but it's due to the mods I have done. The 6.5 motor was chosen for realizability and durability. It's not a powerful engine but it is a workhorse. I've done every mod to up power and I'm at about 350hp and 500trq ... that's not much for a 9000lbs vehicle. I can keep up with traffic and even highway traffic. These were designed for 20mph over unlaced terrain so keep that in mind. I can get into a long list of mods if you want but keep in mind this is my favorite toy, I drive it to the gym almost everyday, it's insane in the snow and there is nothing like it on the road, that being said it can be tricky at times to work on, it has military roots and specialized parts, isn't good on gas and has some quirks... but it's a fuckin HUMMER and I love mine. I know these things inside and out. I'll be honest a 1400
Mile trip at 45-55 mph is not going to be fun and it might over heat if you don't mod it, but for driving around town it would be fun. Annnnd everyone will know where you are."
