Funny, they destroy the environment to produce a zero emissions vehicle. Along with every zero emissions manufacturer.

Accept the big one. I like that thing. But everything they made for the public was just a GM truck chassis with some half assed body thrown on it.

True. My buddy had the original H1 and it was a beast, in a class of its own. Great for wide open offroading but terrible for typical trails that 99.9% of us use. It's best use was looking cool around the neighborhood. He sold it a couple months ago and it went on a flatbed bound for a ship in LA and then on to Hawaii where it will be used for looking cool around the neighborhood.

Don't underestimate the importance of looking cool in the hood. if that wasn't a thing I would be out a job. It's hard to argue against the fact that my $18,000 chevy cruze has been a better vehicle on every point accept looking cool in the hood.

It was a slow day at work so I went down the rabbit hole. Military Humvee's (parent of the Hummer as I'm sure you all know) as surplus open bidding at 6k. Looking at bid history usually sell for 27-33k. With the couple that showed bidding history it was TX and CA back and forth. So looking around a little more seems maybe companies are buying them, upgrading and making them street legal, and selling for a nice profit.

So, I had went down the youtube rabbit hole last night and while there thought I might find some funny parody about "hummers". I did not, but I did find this. I am at a loss for words. The world has changed since I was a kid. That said I love this girl's "practice makes perfect" philosophy. Not porn and no nudity but NSFW.

Hummers are what people of walmart dream they'll buy when they win the lotto.
