And heritage it has. AM General was formed as a spin-off of the Kaiser Jeep Corp in 1964. The company traces its roots back to the Willys-Overland Co., creators of the original Jeep. If anyone questions the Hummers pedigree, its ancestors have served in almost every war since WWII, virtually writing the book on four-wheel drive.
The current Hummer isn't as barbaric as its outward appearance leads a person to believe. To the contrary, all luxury appointments common to sport utilities are now offered. Since its introduction, AM General has added more civility into this beast of burden. Each year more sound deadening material is added, the interior finishing improves and new models are added to the line up. If you haven't driven a Hummer since its introduction, you would be doing yourself a favor to step way up and try one again.
Each model has a personality all its own, making a purchase decision with hard cash a tough decision. The wagon offers versatility in storage, a much quieter cabin and greater convenience in bad weather. The pick-up lets you load in dirty cargo along with a small army of dirty combatants without marring the interior. My personal favorite is the open top Hummer - the world's largest portable tanning bed.
Driving around town in a Hummer is an experience you won't soon forget. All eyes stare in your direction. A 'way too cool for the likes of you' attitude can easily overcome an otherwise humble personality, as does the sense of absolute power with the inherent right to intimidate - ah, the real reason someone buys one of these machines.
