I do love this concept..but with the economy what it is and the prospect of Hummer either going the way of the doh doh bird or sold off; I doubt this concept will see the light of day. I don't care for the H2 & couldn't afford it even if I did. I really liked the Toyota (RC?) coupe concept too...but that never happened either!Originally Posted by nfpgasmask
Personally, I can not relate at all. I think the original military Hummers are ok looking, and cool because of what they are, but the H2 is one of the ugliest vehicles I have ever seen. The H3 is tolerable, but only because they deflated it a little so it looks more like a real truck. Now, if you were talking about this:
I might be able to see things your way, but imho, still nothing to trade your VX in for.

My VX is the longest I've owned anything. There really isn't too many off-road capable vehicles out there to buy currently. I have a Jeep dealer just 12 miles up the road from meI keep looking at the Rubicon's!
Really like the idea of a V-8 powered, off-road capable vehicle with a full-frame (That's what kept me from seriously considering the H3 was the bad reviews on poor performance of the I5 engine.) Had a Grand Cherokee (uni-body) and really don't want another.
(Chevy ZR-2 Blazer was on my radar when I decided to buy the VX.)
Sorry for the rambling..just a night-shift thingI appreciate the postings to this thread...giving me lots of food to fodder!!!!!!!
On a final note...I think all this is brewing because I'm about to sink some hard-earned cash into my VX to lift and would like to add front & rear lockers with possibly lower gearing and I just keep looking at the fast approaching 90K mile mark and the poor resale value and the buyer's market going on with new vehicles....I think my head's about to explode
