Detroit outfit Mil-Spec is talking a problem that is much easier said than done: un-shitboxing the Hummer H1. You see, the original Hummer seemed cool at the time, but it was a seriously terrible vehicle. Underpowered, with half-thought accessories and a tendency to overheat, not to mention GM's injection-molded interior. Mil Spec rebuilds the H1 from the frame rails up, drops in a new powertrain, re-designs the entire interior for better ergonomics, accessories, and sound, and, sells them ready to go, starting at $218,000

Lots of people asking about rattles. I take it none of you have ever been in an actual Hummer, which are the creakiest, most shoddily built vehicles ever. Even if you rebuild the whole thing, there will be some rattles if you’re going off-road. The clamshell hood is designed to shake around, that is totally standard. But this is a MASSIVE improvement from a stock hummer in the NVH department.
Did you do the classic wall climb?
For $240k I expected a little more isolation from the offroading.
@@loudring6247 I think your expectations were too high, considering where they were starting from.
Sounds better than my 60k jeep offroad.
@@TheSmokingTire I have been spoiled by my LS430 maybe thats why.
Did you seriously just take a modded Hummer with locking diffs to the mountains and not climb anything?
I seen a Mexican dude in a Toyota Corolla driving down a road worse than all that last week
Sweet Hummer though
@sbcontt YT Only 2WD? Pointless.
@sbcontt YT Same here.
@sbcontt YT Hahahahaha😂
@sbcontt YT I think he more meant that it could be driven fully 2WD with unlocked diffs. The ordering page lists normal transfer cases options and air-locking diffs.
@@albertdesalvo7273 no dipshit all hummers are full time 4wd but this one has the ability to be 2wd all it takes to go to 4wd is a lever move
This will probably be the extent of offroading any of these milspec builds ever sees lol
Until 4:36 i didn’t realise there is someone else in the car😆
For everyone complaining about the rattles. I take it you've never been in a real Hummer. Unless they put the armoured upgraded doors on it. It's not going to seal or getting better.
He said a real hummer not Barbies Hummer H3 @@ArtVandelayOfficial
@@ArtVandelayOfficial The H3 isn't a Hummer. It's a Chevy Colorado with different body paneling.
Sorry if that offends you.
A bone stock H1 is like a paint can half full of nails and screws in a paint shaker.
By comparison, this Mil-Spec unit is remarkably quiet. The fact that you can hear him (and his passenger) doing proper narration is telling. Were they doing this in a stock job, they'd have to ADR or just voice-over everything afterward.
@@PhotonHerald don't argue with somebody about their mall parking lot princess cruiser about offroad vehicles, your words will go right over their heads.
Starting at $218,000 😬
no thanks
Holly fvcking s@it. Yeah no thanx
@@scuderia747bhp
Buying a used H1 Alpha seems like the better deal/idea. He even mentioned the stock Alpha being good to drive in the video.
BIG PASS. Would have more fun in a HUMVEE
he makes this video like anybody can afford this lol
The rattles aren't bad for a Hummer. They're bad for a Hummer that costs as much as a G63 Squared.
It's an offroad vehicle not a Cadillac, it's built to take a beating not butter your buns
@@Lofi.z34 not a very good offroader for a quarter million dollars then is it
SwaffyX ifs won't get you too far offroad
AD1 ?
@@Lofi.z34 ever heard of an escalade?
Ok so my question is, why would I spend $218k on that barebones interior compared to the level of luxury in the H1 Alpha for $160k instead? Granted not as much power, but there are plenty of shops out there who can easily add power to a Duramax engine for a relatively decent price
Outstanding road presence. Love H1 for what it is. This Mil-Spec re-incarnated Hummer looks properly built. Thank you very much for this vlog!
THANK YOU MILL SPEC!!!! AND EVERYBODY INVOLVED IN THE REBUILD!!!! SHE CAME OUT TOTALLYAWSOME!!!!! I AM SO IMPRESSED!!!!
He said " go ask Doug Demuro " that's a definite choice of person to ask ✅✅
*DeMuro🚙🚙 🚙 🚙
+TheSmokingTire No CTIS?? That's one of the main selling points and features!! I wonder if they could come up with something if they contacted someone like Tibus Offroad in Germany that makes an air system for portals. The fastback Hummers with the slanted spare are pretty epic.
In all the years I’ve been watching your videos and all the vehicles you’ve tested, I’ve never seen you smile more than in that Hummer.
I can't believe how fucking quiet they managed to make that thing, it's insane how much quieter that is than a normal Hummer, even with the minor rattles it still has. Holy shit lmao
Thanks for telling everyone how much torque and hp in the h1’s. It is SOOOO frustrating when people talk about diesels and they only talk about the HP and not the torque output (when diesel’s are all about torque). So thank you so much for that!!!!
The babys in the comments section whining about rattles off road, are the same ones that wear air jordans on the trail & freak out about "All the dirt"
? The trail is made of dirt. Quarter million dollar 4WDs shouldn't be made of rattles.
What do you give to a whiney baby?... A rattle!
Matt please come back! Miss your reviews bro!
Great video of a hummer on flat roads... totally crazy bro
this looks like a military surplus with an interior? this does not look like a factory civilian h1
Why is it rattling so much?
Was it "tuned for the track"?
its not a bentley so expect some rattles.
I think it's because it's convertible.
Simon Maglica if you’ve ever been in an original hummer this is massively improved from that.
You just must love the Hummer. For everyone else who has money just get a Raptor.
Buy 5 raptors
Vanneker 2 very different beasts. I’d have this and a Raptor if I had the money.
But that's only half as cool.
@@toncheky idk man, having 4 spare raptors for your friends would be pretty cool
LOL. Like the craptor is even in the same solar system with this. That piece of shit ford is the most overrated vehicle ever sold.
doing donuts in a Hummer, all you ever wanted and more! proper consumer advice :D
I am good friends with the brother of their chief designing officer. love that they're finally getting recognition
I have an 89 AM General Humvee. The hood on it constantly rattles. It's the best/worst daily driver.
this brings back fond memories of wheelin in afghanistan. i learned how to go offroad and wrench pretty well that year
ex-military Hummer mechanics are some of the best people to get to work on your H1. I found mine on CL when I owned the truck. No dealers would touch it.
Mul/Spec?
I wonder what DDE of daily driven exotics thinks about this? He just bought two of these and acts like are amazing
He bought one, iirc the white one does not have the duramax engine etc
Because they are amazing if you aren’t expecting the world from them. They are simply military offroad vehicles. Plus DDE Hummers aren’t stock either.
The H1 will never be uncool.
My favorite vehicle besides a countach or miura.
Very cool but not for that price. I'd rather have a tricked-out Defender.
Fa sho
Was Matt wearing eyeliner in the intro?
Ryan Lange yeah I noticed that too 🤣
why not?
🤔 Kind of too much makeup, right ?
Just buy a Raptor and save $158,000 lol. You'll also get no rattles and HVAC that you can adjust.. 😂
thabrownieviking suspension that actually works too 😂
And a warranty with service at every Ford dealership. And a 5 star crash safety rating lol
And get the admiration of everyone as they all tell you you have a nice truck instead of being told a hummer... Is that for your wife or are you... Over compensating much?
'
no wonder why this man use a cap on the head...
how come the hummer dont have 2 amber yellow lights on the rear taillights...
not safety
I would suggest Mil-Spec look at commercial refrigeration controllers for the air conditioning. They often have protection from moisture and temperature variances.
Typo in the title?
SUGGESTION: WILLWOOD DISC BRAKE CONVERION KIT.
Matt I love your take on cars and as a Brit I like the idea of the Hummer because the competition in military terms is rough, imagine setting off 100 19 year olds across the desert carrying fuel and water with Hummers that could drift and jump?
I wonder what Jonathon at Icon could achieve with a Hummer at the same price as this MilSpec.
Icon anything is better than this
"It's the kind of Hummer that might make me like Hummers again."
- Matt F.
Nobody picking up on that?
Oh Matt definitely took an early morning joint before this. Looks like a good time.
it is a 2+2, I saw a review it was 6 place. Imagine if you have for 7+1 space modification inside without this huge middle shit box to disturb passages space. I also would change to manuelle transmision plus the sun shild towars my face rather than being shifted. Inflating wheels in and off it is a must.
For those talking about the rattling, it adds character.
/s
You misspelled headache as in it adds a headache to the off roading experience and at no less than $200+k
It is a military vehicle after all, so some rattling to be expected.
@@ThomasGillot Originally it was. Now it's just a piece of shit with no market.
Is it just a coincidence that Daily Driven Exotics recently bought 2 H1 Hummers and now you and many other You-Tubers are all doing Hummer videos? Have always loved The H1’s, everything produced after just isn’t the same.
we missed you man
As an owner of a 2000 HMCS - can't disagree with you more about them being crap. They have their nuances but by and large they are purpose built vehicles. They are not highway queens, they are meant to go 20mph over terrain that a jeep would cry just pointing its headlights at.
A quarter of a million bucks for a Hummer? That earns a giant FUCK THAT!
I didn't see anything my 05 BMW X3 couldn't handle and it cost way less than that when it was new
I could be wrong, but this is a humvee not a hummer h1. I believe mil-spec rebuilds humvees. I believe this is a humvee due to the turn signal. Hummer h1 and humvee are very similar but if you owned one before you should know the difference.
What about the snorkel kit they used to have?
Hummer H1 or HUMVEE?
Where do you get a 60 inch ground clearance?
Take a 1 better listen he said 16 inch.
Who doesn't love a good hummer?
Great video
Now that these are available directly from the military, the aftermarket is going to make building something like this a lot less expensive. In a few years you'll be able to build almost exactly what he's driving for less than $50k.
SUGGESTION: MORE HUMMER MERCHANDISE!!!!
Did he say there's no ctis? Pay over 200k and lose one of the best features of a Hummer...stupid
Jason CTIS is a good feature in theory, but very hard to maintain. The seals go bad on them all the time unless you disconnect the valves on the wheels. Which disconnect the purpose of CTIS. The pump is located in a horrible spot and gets corroded very easily. Good idea, just not executed properly.
@@andrewlee7047 never had an issue with my 03. What do you mean in theory?
L5P is the engine EVERY Hummer needs and deserves.
For $240K, they could fix the rattles.
Really they just let one in mint shape go on berret jackson for 25k h1 600 miles military black ops edition.
First year of the H1 Hummer was in 1992 I saw and met Arnold Schwarzenegger at Mammoth Mountain California driving one. Good times
Arnold Schwarzenegger said that he called up the military and persuaded them to sell them to civilians so I guess that’s true we have him to thank
I would have liked to see some "actual off-roading" for this review.
The title cracks me up. 500 hp and 1,000lb/ft is definitely "mil-spec" lol
Why not put Bose seats in front row in hummer
What is the color code for this vehicle? I am currently looking for this color in powder coat.
Have you ever tried the predator hummers? Those are as far as being a shitbox as can be.
just based off of the interior alone, that hummer looks fucking bad ass!
If I really wanted a hummer, this would probably be it. Buuuut if I just wanted a good offroader I'd probably swing for an ls-swapped wrangler
A Cummins swapped Wrangler sounds even better than an LS swapped one lol
Do they charge extra for all the rattles ????
'
no wonder why that man use a cap on the head...
how come hummer / humvee dont have 2 amber yellow taillights on the rear
Early look at future DDE build?
Suspension doesn't flexing well, the car is jumping on a bumps, it too strong for that weight. Not good.
100% yes.
Yup, softer springs and high quality shocks are a must if your gonna off-road this thing.
@@davidperegoff269 this car is only 240k$. Springs are expensive 😁
Typical RUclips. Bunch of complaints from entitled kids who’ll never actually be the target demographic for a vehicle like this Hummer. Of course he isn’t actually going to beat on it. It’s a quarter-million dollar vehicle...
Thanks for the video.
You should drive @Salomondrin s Raptor S it’s the same price but it’s a Rolls Royce grade interior and a few modded options
But it's a Ford... Eeew. Found On Road Dead.
Do the [Bear's] still proposition you or has that faded away now that you've matured?
First dde, now Matt Farah. H1/HMMV comeback?
I need to see more of this hummer
Less rattles then Jeeps.
Pretty cool. Did notice the speed limits on the trail. Too funny. Is CHP running radar in the desert?
Please review the long travel version.
A MUST WATCH!!!!
I was in the Army when those came out and I’m pretty sure there was never a gas engine version. The Army was moving away from gas. The last thing they had with gas was the Dodge pickup and the M151 Jeep which the Hummer replaced.
Everything he spouted off about the engines was specific to the civilian side, while he’s playing around with a rebuilt military hmmwv, not an H1.
We just need to know how it will do on a track.
SUGGESTION: CARBON FIBER BODY PANELS AND DOORS.
Watching this makes me want to start playing the Lotto!
$200k lets calculate it, $35k for a donor hummer plus $38k for the Duramax engine conversion and $10k for the interior and sandblasting, that $83k and the rest of $200k still in his bank account
To be fair, the Hummer h1 and the military Humvee are not the same vehicle. Off the ranch put it pretty simple. The h1 is the foofoo version of the the Humvee.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
INNOVATION SPOKEN HERE.
Did you air down?
“Only and idiot like me would Daily drive this” while DDE just went and bought 2😂
Take it to a real off-road challenge.
Where is this location
No Ma Deuce option? or Mk19? or TOW?
I want to see it OFF road handling rock steps, wading capabilities and stuff.. Not dirt roads that my Corolla can handle
That really annoys me too. People think of dirt roads as off-roading.
You aren't off-roading until the car is aimed at the sky and you're bouncing off the rutts.
A dirt road is just that, a ROAD lol... I came to see this this thing actually off road as the title has in brackets to stand out.._ i watch 4WD Action every time a new episode is out on their channel, so have high standards.. Btw (If you don't know it) 4WD Action is an amazing channel and show
@@lunamaria1048 haha I'm an Aussie too, man. 4WD action is a fantastic channel.
I met roothy once at a servo in QLD and he was a top dude.
I am Japanese (home of the world most reliable off road builder, Toyota) and absolutely love off roading and Toyotas.. I was in Australia and seen my favorite track in the highlands.. I absolutely love those guys lol.. I currently live in Canada's Pacific Northwest, so a capable vehicle is a must and my husband and I own 3 Toyota's lol
@@lunamaria1048 That is so cool! I love Japan and have been there 3 times.
At the moment I drive a Mazda rx-7 and a Toyota Hilux. Toyota are by far my favourite vehicle manufacturer!
Honestly you fooled me, I thought only Australians were watching 4wd action!
日本が大好きです!
Yea yea yea. They're built to military spec. They are exactly what the military wanted. They were not built for civilian use. The H1 was awesome for what is was meant for.
Yeah but like any military industry or government convenience.. Usually the contract that wins its the one who are equivalent on all theyr points.. Like mass production/cheapness/performance... Simply its not the best truck of the market its just imponente and fulfill ita purpose...
what is max. speed?
dont worry, you wont miss the CTIS. we took them off overseas anyways
Where was the off-road?
Matt please do the one takes more often
You took an H1 and drove down a bumpy dirt road! That will test it's capabilities. I've owned an H1 and mine didn't rattle like that.
rmontez 🍪
How was the hummer on fuel mileage
What suspension does it run
How fast does it go??🤔🤔
You can only lock one diff?
