WHOA! Where the hell did you hear that?!? I know the whole MRAP vehicle line (there are more than a dozen being used right now) are temporary to fill in for the aged (and abused) HMMWVs. But that POS?! Please link me to where you heard that! that POS is useless. The turret allows less than 270 degree security. Yo I need a new job if they stick me in that bull ****. I wouldn't even allow support folk to roll in my convy in that death trap. Holy **** that is a terrible design! All you have to do is wait for it to be parallel to your position when you light it up, then as they pass beyond your position, they couldn't even shoot back!!! that worse than the Strykers they had to weld shopping carts too to keep the kids inside alive!
Also, Hummer never built a single HMMWV (military vehicle). They took some old HMMWVs and added rearview mirrors, climate controls, street legal lights, a plastic covered dash, etc to make them streetable (as stated above). AM General won the military contract to replace the CUTVs (M1009 i think) Blazers and Broncos in the mid-to-late 80's
Akso, I would take a Tahoe over an H3 hands down. I feel so gay driving the H3s around.

Ah, Ok. Tracking now. This must have been a part of the MRAP program then.
Back to topic, Hummer sucked anyway. H2 and H3 are awful looking. H3T might be fun for a weekend, and the H3X (i think) the ZR2 of the H3 line looked badass, beyond that, the Chinese can have them. Just send more Spicy Mustard and Fried shrimp and we'll call it even.
