The H2 is the ultimate poseur vehicle. I'm not quite sure why anyone would
buy it for status. All it says about the owner is that they couldn't afford
the H1. As far as the military models, the government chops them up in
pieces when they get rid of them. So I'm not quite sure where you are
buying one that hasn't been welded back together. And is it really the same
after all that has been done? Not to mention the fact that the military
hummer isn't legal to drive on US highways because it doesn't meet the
saftey specs.
