    Just yesterday morning, after seeing dozens of Hummers in the dealer's lot, my carpool companion and I were questioning what the H4 will look like.
    Maybe a hatchback. :)

    That was the problem, off-roading was the 'only' thing they were good at. There was very little 'sport' and a whole lot more 'utility' in the H1 than any other SUV sold in the United States.

    In fact, the H1 was closer to a Mercedes Unimog, which could double as a four-wheel drive tractor and pull a plow if necessary in the third-world countries it had been deployed.

    Probably the only one worth keeping. That and the Range Rover, Jeep Wrangler and Toyota Land Cruiser.
