@@thetouringprepper8681 The H1 Wagon's stock GVR is 10,300lbs. I'd guess a bare bones HMMWV is probably 5,000 - 7,000 lbs and it depends on what has been added.
Try doing this in an M1075A1 fully laden with supplies, no sleep, at NTC, as an 88M. Puts a sour taste in your mouth when you're not doing it for fun, but as your job, in a truck that's well over the recommended size. But the CAT mounted to the 6 speed Allison Transmission, and turning 9f the truck, coupled with the CTIS is what makes the M1075A1 totally worth buying when I get out of the Military.
@@ap1hondaking Being a 'jeep boy' doesn't keep me from respecting the humvee (the only real hummer). I just came here thinking there'd be some 'wheeling. See ya honda boy.
@@ffhjvbuydb78eb nope, duramax swap makes it a completely different beast... not cheap though. Top speed of 90. ( took mine to 97) 400-500 +hp, insane torque, depending on your tune. Besides even 55, on a dirt road, is pretty darn challenging. Speaking from experience though. No regrets so far. Besides everyone and their dog has a jeep. Nothing against jeep though. They are definitely fun as well. But Humvees, well just like their old advertisements, like nothing else...
@truckers4 trump true. Cummings also bad ass swap. Duramax or Cummins, just different ways to do a a restomod. I was just more used to gm products. Had a 79 Camaro as my first car.
I liked the video good job. Only thing is your channel isnt titled right I looked and looked but dont think I saw a single Humvee in this video. I saw a bunch of H1 hummers and even a station wagon called a H2 but no humvees well I am unsure about that one but I think that was just a dressed down H1.
The green open top is a 6.2 NA. All the rest are 6.5 Turbo Diesels, one P400 (wrapped open top) and one 6.6L Duramax (black open top with yellow skulls on wheels...and stuffed animals everywhere). In season 2 there are two 6.2 NA trucks, one is a stock HMMWV.
HumveeLife awesome thanks! I definitely need one of these but people tell don’t waste my time unless it’s a 6.6 duramax. This clearly proves they are very capable without the duramax
Destaye looks to me like Lime Green was very comfortable with his approach and departure angles which enabled him to maximize on momentum while applying BTM at the right time.
How come I don't ever get invited to these events! I did get to go to a meet in oak ridge , it was called the hummer club but I went up a hill to fast and got cussed out never heard from them again
+Brady Stanga Hey Brady, we're not affiliated with them, but the Hummer Club Inc. (www.thehummerclubinc.com/) would be the group to look into that has set trips to Moab for Hummers. We did see a couple of H2s amidst all the H1s last year.
I’ve put 110K miles on my 1998 H1 wagon in AZ I put it thru snow,mud, sand, crawling, ice roads, even crossed a 5 foot deep river, never had to use my winch. The Land Cruiser would still be in the river.
For me, Humvee is a dream from childhood, however, mainly military versions are available ( ok 30 000$), not to mention Alpha, which, as it appears, can cost up to $ 150,000 :( It flies sub and at least look at these beautiful machines because they are far beyond In addition, in Poland, to drive it, you must have driving license for trucks.
4 whell steer,i dont think so.h3 are not hummers,there a chevy truck,get facts right ,same as here in aus with holden allways calling a nissan a holden its just the badge,holden cruise is built in korea,astra was british,ect.
I have the H2. I think its awesome! I've pulled stumps out of the ground along with roots with my H2. It's a beast. I have pics of the proof if you don't believe me.
Hi Guys quick question what runs cooler a super charger or a turbo intercooler on the hummer? Im trying to work out how I can get my girl to run cooler alot cooler when driving through soft sand for long periods . Cheers for any advice.
Howdy! I would think a turbo will run your engine cooler since it's not "running the engine" like a supercharger would. I do know there are H1s and HMMWVs that have been supercharged successfully. Here's an article on supercharging the H1: www.flashoffroad.com/Diesel/supercharger/supercharge.html An intercooler is probably the best way to help cool the engine. Rubberduck4x4 and Predator Motorsports make one for the H1, I believe they buy you a reduction of 70+ degrees in intake temps. A small thing you can do: If you're going at slower speeds I'd suggest putting a couple radiator fans on the radiator stack. They will only cool at slower speeds. When the H1 or HMMWV go faster the fans actually don't get much air at all. Just add a toggle switch so you can turn the fan on and off when you're in Low Lock going slowly through elements, I'd say 20MPH or less they'd be effective. Another is removing restrictions from your exhaust. The stock muffler is known to create a massive amount of heat build-up. Take it off and add a high-flow muffler (or no muffler if you don't mind the noise, I did it on my 6.5 NA, truck is very happy). The more your truck can breath, the happier it will be. Temp-wise just keep it around 190 if you can. 200 is fine, 210 is alright, 220 it's time to start thinking about slowing down. 230 and up for long periods of time is asking for trouble. As a side note, when I did I road trip on the hottest day of the year (128 degrees F) from Long Beach to Houston, every stop we made I was finding a self-serve car wash to spray out the radiator from all the dust. I'm sure it cooled the engine as well, but I was more worried about the dust and sand (like you're driving in) building up and causing heat issues. Trip was great, no issues...except for very tired drivers. Let us know what you do! I plan to supercharge my 6.5 NA in the next few years.

I saw an H2 in that H1 convoy! Great video, thanks for sharing it.
He was trying to be sneaky. Lol
There were 2 actually... A black one and a tan one
Sweet videos! Glad I found this. I was in Moab in 1998 on a mountain bike. Best memories! A H1 would have been better.
Looks like a ton of fun, and you all enjoyed yourselves! That’s what it’s about. 🤙. Keep drivin’! Great video!
Great video footage. Gotta love the lockers, get you everywhere!
I love how the driver of the lime green H1 made some of the obstacles look easy as pi!
he is gas so he has alot less weight in the front.
He's a 6.2 Naturally Aspirated Diesel, sounds different with the NA engines and the straight pipe.
@Patriot extraordinaire He's an extraordinary driver.
I knew right away he’s a 6.2 NA. Sounds exactly like my HMMWV.

We'll pass the owners cell numbers of the 2019 Suzuki Jimny Crickets onto the U.S. Marines in the event a HMMWV needs a recovery tow. Good to know!
Try crossing a 5 foot deep river in your Suzuki. I did it in my H1 wagon no problem. Your zuki would still be there.
9:35 crab walk h1? 😂😂
Tough trucks tough trails. I reckon only a Unimog could have matched that performance. Drivers have lots of experience. Very good!

Thanks Dusty! We have plenty more!

two ozzzie thumbs up guys
One 'Murica thumbs up back at ya!
I remember a decade ago these were somewhat affordable. Nowadays theyre like 70-100+k CAD. Crazy.
Same here in the US
When I was a kid I always wanted a yellow H1 with the black soft top and black lettering across the bottom that read HUMMER. Maybe someday

Well done vid!
thanks dude!
What are those steel cabels going between the front of the hood and the lightbar?
They keep the aliens away.
Actually, they are limb risers. Aside from aliens they primarily help to lift branches and limbs away from the windshield.
Ah thanks, always wondered what those where for. Now i can stop lining my hats with tinfoil and get less branches on my windscreen at the same time!

Why does the green H1 make it look so easy?

Hummer H1 look so badass and so much fun to drive I can only imagine especially a military vehicle but they just can't do what a Land Cruiser can do.

Are these H1s or humvees
Around 22 min was really questioning tire pressure choice.. but I don’t know anything bout H1
Then at 23 confirmation that lower psi still works
It must have been super easy to find parking
Surprisingly, yes! The H1/HMMWV has always been easier to park than any of my other trucks. The turning radius is 26.5' as well.
Are those humvees or hummer h1’s
Did that say only 23 for the record? Doesn't seem like that many
