jeep with a Hummer body kit

    has anyone else seen this thing? I saw it on 141 monday (I think?) afternoon and wasn't able to keep lunch down. if anyone has any photos of it I'd love to see them (in a trainwreck kind of way)

    Makes me kinda sick too. One think that is kind of cool is that you can run 35" tires without a lift.

    Nobody belongs anywhere, nobody exists on purpose, everybody's going to die. Have a beer.

    now that is sick. what is the purpose of this thing? are they trying to say that hummers want to be jeeps because i certainly can't see it the other way around. i don't know of any jeep owners that would want their vehicle to even come close to resembling a hummer. am i wrong?

    YUCK, those "landrunners" are ugly. :repuke:


    when I saw the title, I thought somebody saw a Jeep Rescue photo. I call them a Hummer on steroids. Jeep was trying to get the military contract for the new all-purpose vehicle to replace the Humvee, I dunno if they're still trying, though. I hope they get it.

    and, here's one I shot at Camp Jeep. http://www.delawareja.com/gallery/data/703/498IMG_9826.JPG


    The Rescue is massive, larger than a Hummer H1 or H2. It's running on 37" tires. http://www.daimlerchrysler.com…389-0-0-0-0-0-0-0,00.html

    Those things are hot. Yellow one rides around newark. They call them HJ-7 body kits.

    I thought it was our duty as jeep owners to denounce the H2 and H3.
    The H1 i have respect for because it really is a capable offroader and it serves the military well, but not in tight trails. Still, i think we can all find respect for the H1 as a military vehicle. The rest of the Hummer line is crap.

    I think those things look pretty stupid. These are the same people that bolt on every accessory from the first 2 isles of Pep Boys on their 79 Royal Blue Monte Carlo or their little plastic ricer. I give it a thumbs down. :down: I dont think I would have been so annoyed with pulling driving duty while in the USMC if I was driving my TJ. The ride in those hummers are brutal, and they flex for S#&t. Had plenty time with them in the desert in 29 stumps.

    the H1 was developed by AM General, a subsidiary of AMC, who happened to own jeep at that time, making the H1 the last FSJ. that is why it is bad @$$

    That's what i was told by an uncle of mine. Then it was sold off by chrysler to GM and they have been trying to retrieve that military market place ever since. Its a shame, but i'd much rather have an old fart of a jeep rather than a new spiffy H2 or H3.

    Aren't the military tires filled with calcium or something instead of air?

    not sure about in Humvee's, but some diesel engines can run on "bio diesel". either a mix of regular diesel and the vegie-oil, or run dual tanks (switch to veg-oil after the engine is running).


    the main reason Humvee's hurt so much, is that they are designed for strength, not comfort. lol take a peek at the underside of the next military convoy you see, if you can spot any shocks, let me know. :)
