Nothing wrong with that picture. I’d rather be seen in that than in an actual Hummer.
Thanks I was looking for a metphor for our new healthcare system.
Other than the overcooked rhetoric on the video, its a funny thing to do to a Hummer.
Well played, panzer! Yes, that carriage is metaphoric, but not quite for the reasons the artist believes.
The new two horsepower Hummer.
Twotone
The poor Hummer. So much passionate hate for it, yet it’s not substantially different than other trucks of its size. It’s the Sarah Palin of trucks.
H4-nsom Cab!
I have it on good authority that:
1. Their inability to get GM to assign them exclusive ownership of the powertrain technology IP for this variant was what sunk the deal for the Chinese to purchase Hummer;
2. This was the GM prototype for a bio-fuel to methane energy conversion and propulsion unit;
3. Despite the divestiture of this prototype, GM is still proceding apace with the ramp-up of the GM Buggy Whip Division;
4. This was the first GM vehicle in 20 years to sport the famous Body-by-Fisher coach medallion on the door kick-plates;
Can anyone tell me, if this is what happens to a hummer totalled in a frontal crash?
I’m not sure they would be able to get EPA approval for the particulate emissions…
So are there extra batteries to power the power seats, lights, kickin’ stereo, etc?
Perhaps attach a generator to the rear wheels and have another 2 horses?
Assuming for a moment that the output of a horse is 1 HP, if there were a 2 HP generator attached to the wheels, you’d need more than two horses to pull it.
I think it definitely needs 4 horses. Looks seriously underpowered with 2.
Gorgeous hosses, Beligians?
